The Balearic Islands were the beginning of Malua’s Mediterranean cruise in 2007. After Malua arrived in Palma aboard Erasmusgracht, we prepared her for cruising and then set out along the coast of Mallorca before crossing to Menorca.
Rather than make this one very long page, the story is divided into three chapters.
