Holidays

We've been to Cala en Porter a couple of times mainly due to the airport proximity. The second time we got a car and travelled around a bit and the only place we weren't keen on was Cala Galdana. I probably wouldn't stay on the North coast as the weather can be a bit rough around Fornells.

Nice one, we've since booked up elsewhere for this year but will definitely look to return to Menorca again, especially whilst the kids are young. i love taking them down the little beach coves rather than some packed beach you'd get in mainland spain/majorcia where you fighting for every inch of sand just to lay a couple of towels and kids can wade really far out and the waters still only waist deep. Beautiful island.

I went for a walk early one morning and was strolling along the cliffs fighting the undergrowth and ended up overlooking Calas Coves which is absolutely stunning.

Its now become quite a big week. Can't say its on in every bar but its certainly on in the ones around the Tiki corner area. The winning post bar has its own bookie inside which is ideal. The weather last year was pretty good so hopefully the same again and with it being a big week, the bars are heaving on a night. Nice little daft week away with the lads, cannit whack it!

Was going to Slovenia from Newcastle via Brussels but the first flight was with FlyBMI.

Luckily the flights were with Brussels Airlines are refundable. Other routes too long and silly prices.

Starting over again. Might do a couple of city breaks back to back. Munich and Barcelona perhaps

I went there last year, amazing place! We flew into Venice Treviso with Ryanair, hired a car and drove to Slovenia, worked out a lot cheaper. Couple of hours drive to Ljubljana which I'd recommend visiting for a day, then an hour up to Lake Bled. Also go to Postojna caves and Predjama castle if you go
