IMG 5291 Almonds IMG 5292 close up IMG 5293 as a group we all started uphill toward Santa Maria de l'Olivar IMG 5294 olives
IMG 5295 a church IMG 5297 but this is the chapel IMG 0235 quite baroque in its way IMG 0346 the assembled tourists
IMG 0347 I continued on alone toward the Mirador de ses Barques and points further out, passing free clementines on the way IMG 0349 the path onward IMG 0359 out into some fields IMG 0360
IMG 5299 meanwhile those who descended ran into more blossoms IMG 5300 IMG 0361 I continued through olive orchards IMG 0362 to a place called Balitx d'Amunt
IMG 0363 and continued out through terraces and down into a valley IMG 0364 lovely cobbled path IMG 0365 a spring IMG 0368 more insane olive trees
IMG 0369 like monsters IMG 5301 the others had regained Soller with its cafés IMG 5302 nice looking lunch IMG 5306 chowing down
IMG 0370 Meanwhile out on the trail I climbed out of the valley over a col and could see almost to Tuent IMG 0373 I turned around then stopped for lunch near the col IMG 0374 strange place IMG 0376 populated by goats
