LOL! It is a thought Susie, I would rather stick with the hope that the weather holds out, but will keep them in mind if it looks dodgy in a few weeks time!

I do love the change over of the season though, the unpredictability of the weather is all part of it. Soon the log fires will be lit in the restaurants, and everyone has time to talk again.
I wonder how heavy wellies are to pack though?
Bella,

Stick your feet in poly bags and seal with duk tape. Works for me.

Default winding down

Just back from PP 3 lovely weeks with hubby, eldest daughter and her boyfriend, really lucky with the weather just a couple of days overcast and showers really so not enough to stop us doing anything, must say though in our travels out and about thought PP was very quiet compared to Alcudia, Soller and Porto Vells, not complaining though makes it easier to eat out in the evenings, just sort of expected most areas to be slowing down a tad at this time of year, but only seems to be in the port. Still roll on 6 weeks will be over again just the 2 of us.....

Walked through the square today and Bonys, Cafe L'Algar, Dakota Tex Mex and El Mojito are all closed for the winter.

I strolled along the sea front and it was very quiet and Capri was closed, Daina was desmantling and a few bars and shops were clearing things away. Here comes winter . . . .its going to be a long hard one for most.

Two years ago we were in PP the last week in October and noticed the winding down process really getting in to full swing.

Three years ago we were in Palma on a city break in mid November and came up to PP on the bus one day, snow on the mountains as we came up and boy oh boy, did we find the place deserted, got off the bus and our fellow travelers, six or so vanished in to thin air, and the freezing wind was blowing the sand in our faces, along the front and in the square.

In to cafe 1919, one of the very few places open for a little warmer!

But hey!

Still a lovely place to behold!

Hey Sparky mate can you confirm El Mojito is closing for the winter, their webpage says they are open all year, I was looking forward to getting my Tumbet fix in January?

Everything has been packed up in Mojito SWS but Makasaar is still open and of course Casinet is now open and they are all run by the same people so you may get your tumbet fix in there.

Question to the PP residents on here, do you like the winter months being less people around, do you find plenty to do to keep you occupied?
