Mallorca

Welcome back everyone :)

In a few weeks I am going to travel to Gambia and I wanted to make a blog about it, but than I realized I totally forgot to tell you about my adventure to Mallorca, so here goes.

It was September 10th and we left early in the morning. And with "we" I mean my mom, my dad, my grandma and me. The reason why I went on this one-week vacation was to explore the world (DUH) but also to spent time with my grandma and let grandma have the time of her life again. AND NOW i hear you all thinking: "going on a trip with your grandma? That sure seems boring!". Well, yes, a vacation with your grandma is the most boring thing in the world, EXCEPT when you have the coolest grandma ever! (lucky me :)). My grandma and grandpa always loved to travel together, usually to spain, but ever since my grandpa passed away my grandma has not been outside of The Netherlands, which I think is a shame. SO, because I wanted to travel around the world and I was not allowed to travel by myself, I decided to make some memories with my grandma :). 

It took us a while to decided on the location but finally with some help of mom we chose to go to Mallorca. Why? Because like I said, my grandma loves to go to spain but the places she has already visited with grandpa were no option because it would give grandma mixed feelings about the trip. She had never visited Mallorca before and to me it seemed interesting because I really wanted to visit an island. 

So, on the 10th of September our plane took off at 7:00 in the morning from Eindhoven Airport. When we arrived in Spain, a big bleu TUI bus took us to our hotel and we settled in. We had a big luxury hotel with a room that had a beautiful view from the ocean and it was only a two minute walk to the boulevard.

I am not going to explain every little detail about this adventure, but I do want to tell you how grateful I am for having the chance to get to know my grandma on such a big level. Seriously, you think you know someone so well, but then you spent a whole week with them and only them and then you realise how little you knew about them! For example I have learned that my grandma is pretty agressive in her sleep, and I mean prettttyyyyy agressive..... Multiple times she scared the shit out of me when she started yelling again in the middle of the night and one time I had to go to the bathroom while she was asleep and all of a sudden she yelled "GO AWAY YOU PERVERT!". The next morning I asked who she was talking to and funny thing was was that she said that in her dream to a chicken.... the pervert was a chicken...

Anyways, in short details, here is what we did during our vacation: We walked over the boulevard, did some souvenir shopping, walked in the sea, took the tourbus, played cardgames, went to the aquarium, swum in the swimming pool, ate dinner at the restaurant 5 times without paying for it, ate 3 bags of chips in 2 days, played more cardgames and of course we talked a lot about ourselves to eachother, which was pretty nice. Also funny thing: we had diner 6 times in Mallorca and my grandma ate fries litterally every day :). I never knew my grandma loved fries that much.

If you are interested, check out the pictures about this adventure and i will see you again prettyyy soon, because like I said, in 2 weeks time, the best time of life is about to begin :).

Adios!
