Mediterranean Style

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;" class="teaser_image">Hello, dear friends. It's funny how I don't even move now when there is a tremor in Peru. When we first got here I used to rush outside until it was over. There was a tremor about 5 minutes ago, but I've got so used to them, I just go on with whatever I was doing (preparing this post in this case) while counting how long it lasts - 17 seconds this time. I've been told I have to have a backpack ready in case there is a major earthquake. Sounds scary. Hope I don't have to use it.<br /><br />Ok, so we are off to Spain today to visit a rustic home on the island of Majorca, overlooking the fields below and The Mediterranean Sea in the horizon. Not many photographs of the interiors, I'm afraid. These will have to do.<br /><div class="teaser_image"><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <a
