Here is an example of a typical menorcan dress. Everyone wore dresses. The shoes I am touching are menorcan sandals. They are really the 'crocs' of the island. Men women and children all wear them and I wish I could say I bought some, but I just couldn't get used to them. Instead I found some great sandals made of recycledmmaterial that Giselle designed, you know the stunning other half of our beloved Tom Brady.

I have been wearing them with my array of new dresses and am now considering myself an official convert to menorcan world. That sounds kind of star trekish. Menorca is a place that is it's own planet and in July it has everything you could imagine. Natural parks, hiking, bike paths, beaches, incredible night life, fresh fish, fruit and vegetables. No easy Internet, diving, handsome Spanish men everywhere, friendly people and great shopping. I don't want to sing it's glory too much though in fear of it being discovered.

I haven't mentioned that my son is here with me and he has been having a great time as this is his first trip to Spain. We signed him up for diving lessons and he is now officially certified and can go as much as 12 meters. Ahhh the life of a 13 year old. Diving certified in the Mediterranean off the coast of Spain. Life is good.
