Starting with breakfast again we went to the Diner & Dash eatery.
Mum and I both got omelettes, hash browns, sausage, bacon (American) and i got a toast while mum got a tomato.
While walking to find a taxi we marvelled at our ship.
We were then dropped off in front of Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca, along the sea edge, before starting our tour to Drach Caves.
Along the way we saw beautiful landscapes and buildings, some interesting sculptures and Rafa Nadal Academy.
After arriving at the Caves of Drach, along with about 10 other buses, we got off the lovely air conditioned bus into the heat of the day. We entered the caves, which range between 17°C - 20°C all year round. The formations and crystal clear water in the caves were amazing.
Near the end of the walk through the caves we all had to sit in an ampitheatre, within the caves to watch a short concert. They turned off all the lights in the cave. The concert involved 3 row boats, lit up with lights. One rowboat had a small orchestra on it, playing classical music. We were not allowed to take photos of the concert so I have made an AI generated version to show what it was like.
After finishing in the caves we got an ice block and some refreshing snacks before heading back to Palma.
Once back we took a stroll through Palma, passing by many fountains to our shuttle to take us back to the ship
Once back on the boat we got burgers and chips and some desserts. I got the pork burger of the day while mum got a regular with a choice of vegan or American cheese (two bad options), then i got a berry rose pop (with alcohol). We explored the top deck of the ship, which turns out to be the sporty part, before returning to our cabin for the night.
