        @Madame Buttonfly and I are in Menorca, we have come here primarily to check on the progress of MV SAKURA (which means making ours selves a PITA with the builders).  But we have lot of other things to do and we have fallen in love with Menorca, out of season it is quiet and cheap - and stunningly beautiful.  It is thus far my favourite Mediterranean Island, bar none.

        This morning, we went Venus and Mars'ing shopping.  Paula did bedding, I did liferafts.

        Sorry, I forgot to take pics of sheets…. 😉

        Afterwards, we went to look at some of the Talayotic remains which exist on the Island, there are 100's of these across Menorca.

        I can't tell you how much I loved this place....

        I'm a sucker for steps built into dry-stone walls….

        The cistern and washing area…

        Paula, worshipping some random deity, or doing an " @twin "

          Afterwards, we drove to Cuitadella for a quick refreshment. 

          I fell in love with this building, I think what made it so special for me was the sympathetic use of UPVC double-glazing in the windows above the entrance.  Fucking vandals…..

          I'm also a sucker for covered walkways, a Portico in Italian (bologna is famous for them)…

              Looks like a wonderful place to visit. Must add to my bucket list for some winter sun.

              Take the dive...

                After playing boats:

                https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=17049.msg768174#msg768174

                We took a trip up to the third largest town in Menorca, Alaior, because we wanted to see the church that dominates the surrounding countryside….

                The simplicity of this arched roof is a joy to behold…No ostentatious my-cojones-are-larger-than-yours architectural pomposity....

                  Not an architect or art historian, but it is interesting to see those Romanesque arches instead of Gothic ones. I looked it up and based on when it was built, I think pointed arches would have been the dominant style. So I would think it is unusual to have that style from that era and in such pristine condition.

                  Glad y;all are enjoying your adventure!

                  Think it, be it.
