Mallorca, Spain and my first speeding ticket in Deutschland

We returned last week from an exciting trip to Mallorca, Spain. We had a great time at our all-inclusive resort. We rented a Fiat for two days and a scooter on the last day to explore caves, coves and small villages around the island. It rained one day, so instead of the beach we did the Jungle Parc which is basically us in harnesses swinging around in the trees from obstacle to obstacle.
One of the tropical bars we tried! Sparklers in our drinks.

I always have liked feeding the fish:)

One of my favorite shots of Ben crossing the little bridge!

Blurry and wide-eyed but we are in the caves!

Less blurry shot of inside the caves!

This is us after a failed venture to find a private cove at the south point of the island. So we enjoyed the views from the cliffs!

One of my fav views: my man bringin us drinks!

The Fiat

Such a beautiful cove


One of my highlights was this beautiful little village called Fornalutx, It was satisfying in every way! The architecture, flowers, food and colors. Loved it.

This door is too small for me.

We also visited a local brewery a couple weeks ago in Germany called Rothaus Brewery. Ben's friend works there and he gave us a wonderful tour. We were there for nearly 7 hours! 




This is how I like to get my beer! FRESH brewed and unfiltered!



We finished off the week with a BBQ at Ben's parents house with friends that turned out great! We all were able to get together for good food and times and Ben's friends brought us some wonderful gifts including a photo book.
We tried to get most but some people are missing!

Us with Ben's parents!






I did manage to get my first speeding ticket in Germany, At night some city speed limits are reduced by half to cut down on noise in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, I forgot about that. Good times. I was driving Ben and I home at 3:30am from a friend's party in Freiburg.
CAUGHT: for your enjoyment

This week was pretty much a picture blog! I am back in full time school at the moment and enjoying it. We also visited Hamburg and went sailing with friends in Switzerland! I will share some of those experiences next week!
