My View. Let's See Yours

[ingenious]

Only big bummer is I have managed to lose my phone along the way I had it when we arrived at the airport so it's either been pickpocketed there or dropped in taxi. Not showing up in Find My. Been on to the taxi company and they are going to check with driver. Meanwhile going to buy a cheapie to keep me going

Phone located at airport but unfortunately smashed. Bought a cheap Nokia to keep me going and hopefully get repaired when I get to Barcelona. Anybody had experience of getting repairs done under Applecare + in a different country?
On the upside, sun is out and the island very pretty if a little windy.

Oops, wrong thread.

Sorry to hear about your phone.
I handed my phone over to a repair place in Mallorca because the battery was on its last legs. After two weeks and many excuses they returned it to me in pieces. And with a smile aid there would be no charge for the work they had done.
Stupidly, I hadn't backed up my most recent photos. Lesson learned.

Wait till he hears the noise they make...
Wake the dead those noisy beggars....

There’s over 40 of them....they live in the citadel but are free to wander the park and walk around the streets of St Tropez

Is that why they don't keep them in cemeteries?

The citadel is actually a maritime museum

Here are some of the exhibits

This one is actually an optical illusion….the canon are actually on the wall aiming at the ceiling

I’m not happy with the masts on the foredeck of the grey ship...derricks yes....but masts with spars and crows nest???

 

[westernman]

Stream ships often had a mast on the foredeck. But two is a bit unusual.
Crows masts were often used as well.

The sun sets on my time in Mogan, off to Barcelona in the morning!


(Actually, I'm cheating, this picture was taken several days ago, it's very cloudy tonight and forecast to rain tomorrow)

Same in most big cities these days. In theory I'm just going into the Apple store to get my phone fixed but I may as well have a ramble on the Rambla while I'm there.

Would have guessed the man who made Bacardi was from Sitges?


Weather has improved since last nights pissing rain but the Siren of the Seas seems to be telling those in the marina behind not to go.
