So it begins….

Tomorrow,  22 June,  in the spirit of “go, go, go”, and because rust never sleeps, I am off to Mallorca, Spain on a First Ever!  Fortunately for me, on this First Ever I will be meeting up with a Forever (friend of that sort), to join another Forever in Mallorca.   Though I have visited Spain, this will be my first time in the Balearic Islands, off the east coast of Spain in the Mediterranean.  The islands of the archipelago, Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, etc. cannot exactly be considered ripe for exploration, or adventure travel–as they are already fabulously famous for their beautiful beaches, coastlines, mountains, Brits and Germans.  So it is a different sort of trip for me, and brings together the overflow joys of past travel…friends from previous travels, previous lives, who have never let go of the thread…Forever Friends. They are the friends you may only see every half decade, or decade, but the moment you lay eyes upon each other, the conversation and feeling picks up exactly where you left it.  So the purpose of this specific travel is only to reunite, to reacquaint, to bring back the past, without concern for the destination.  The destination will be enjoyed, but as an afterthought.   It was travel that bore these Forever friendships, and it is these friendships that continue to forge travel.   As I grow older, it feels right that my adventure travel should make room for a little more comfort travel.
