The excess water which manages the Government lets stop the desalination plants
The Department of Environment, through the Balearic Water Agency and Environmental Quality (Abaque), has sufficient water reserves to supply liquid to the population for a period of time ranging from two to three years without having to resort to the four existing desalination plants currently in Mallorca. The calculation is based on a hypothetical (and unlikely) situation of absolute lack of rain during this period of time, it would seem that the surplus is still above water because the rain cycles can regenerate the different aquifers island and widen the pool of liquid.

Hotels with organic gardens

Due to growing interest in agriculture that respects the environment, hotels are starting to put up their own organic gardens.

These gardens are a creative and rewarding activity aimed at people of all ages, to encourage client participation in recovery and maintenance of agriculture that respects the environment.

The activities are of particular concern for children who can grow and collect the products of the garden with the help of their parents and making your vacation into something educational and fun at the same time.

Festivity of San Juan in Ciudadela / Menorca

The festivities of Menorca are centuries old tradition that originated in the festivities of San Juan, celebrated in the fourteenth century Citadel.

The main protagonist of the celebrations is the horse. The rider or riders, dressed in black and white, are on their horses through the streets of the village, until one time and then collected all of the mass, celebrated on the traditional hassle (not to be confused with the hassle, sing and dance .)

In the commotion the riders enter the town square and go into the crowd showing their skills and making the horses jump to the rhythm of the typical songs of the holidays, especially one jot well known in the region that is interpreted by a band of local music. The rowdy crowd makes the horse jump as a symbol of power and nobility.

After the traditional mess of the second day, we proceed to the delivery of cane by the authorities, in which the riders re-enter the square by jumping horses and eventually fired. After completing all the fuss and "ses dogs" the band begins to play songs or songs typical of Menorca in his time were very heard.

The drink that is drunk at parties is the ointment, which is a mixture of Menorca gin with lemonade.

MALLORCAN GASTRONOMIE in EASTER

These pies are typical of the Easter holidays and the Christmas holidays. Our grandmothers did before the holidays so they had made for dinner a few nights. If they become smaller in size are also used to serve on a buffet.

Instead of beef and pea filling, these pies can also fish or vegetables only, and as a curiosity, at least in Palma de Mallorca elsewhere, some people make these pies dough sweet, adding a little sugar to the dough.
