    That was so nice to watch Alex. I really enjoyed it. The views and the weather were amazing. The hotel you mentioned that was supposed to open in march. I can’t see it happening. It looks like it is getting a second floor added to it

      Wow, that's what I call ambitious. There were LOADS of workmen there, but then the café was full and it wasn't til I walked down the side, that I realised the scale of the works. Let's see...

    Hello. Today, April 17th, I spoke to you on the street in Santa Ponca. The world is so small. It's really a coincidence that we meet. I'm excited when you'll put the video on UA-cam. Best wishes, Holger from Germany. Keep up the good work.

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  Рік тому +1

      I think you're right Diane. I can't see any hotel chain putting in this much effort to keep it 3-star. But let's see!
