Although we do not know Majorca, we visited Menorca some 35 years ago and were greatly taken with the unspoilt nature of so much of the island once away from the then obvious tourist spots.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876862148358784705.post-55474261394540256382012-03-16T20:33:10.140+00:002012-03-16T20:33:10.140+00:00and as she later added

We managed about 300 yards in 3 hours because we had to pause and identify every plant along the way. We found quite a few new species for the island too - hence the rather slow progress.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.com
