We sally forth for the famous "Patio and Palace" tour-sounds dull, right? Turns out to be far from it-our guide Martines is a mine of fascinating knowledge.

| Cars use these streets! |
Visit house of Mallorcan, dodgy oligarch, maybe formerly richest man in the world, Juan March.
 |
| Palma cathedral view |
 |
| Rodin sculpture-fairly armless |
 |
| 18thC nativity porcelaine figures purchased from royal family by Senior March |
Following tour we settle in for some hot chocolate in recommended Xocolateria.
 |
| Not Gaudi |
 |
| Enseimada |
Discover small market where I purchase 100gms of finest, acorn fed,black pig jamon-will now need to put off retirement by 2 years.
This turns out to be so delicious that I am considering smuggling back a whole leg inside one of my body cavities.
Dinner is at the (?aptly) named Can Cera Gastro Bar-will keep you updated.
