One more quick trip before it's time to move on to the next chapter! A relaxing all-inclusive beach trip was in order before prepping for the big move. The whole family was able to enjoy the warm weather and beautiful views in Mallorca, Spain. It was a quick 3 hour flight from Copenhagen - and if you are wondering where this place is, it is an island that is about a one hour flight south of Barcelona.
Relaxing at our resort...
Enjoying the beach!

| The pool was a bit chilly - even for these 2 who are used to swimming weekly in cold pools for swimming lessons. I didn't even bother sticking a toe in! |
 |
| Fortunately the indoor pool was heated nicely! the kids spent most time swimming there. |
The only thing we really did off the resort was a catamaran ride - very nice!
We forced the kids to take naps since they stayed up so late. Hmmm, Raegan had claimed she wasn't tired and she of course slept the longest!

| Reagan got her hair braided - still there almost a month later! |

| We wore him out...in his new Angry Birds towel |

| She jumped off! Her and her Dad had a bet... |
The kids absolutely loved the Kids Club which gave Ron and I several hours a day to truly relax. Every day they would play games and then at night at the kids "mini disco" they would give the medals for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. And the mascot Starkey - seen below - would present the awards. Sadly, it took Ron and I 3 days (after debate) to realize he was supposed to be a starfish. And, can you believe every night they would ask one of the parents to dress up as Starkey to hand out the prizes? in that hot costume? However, it did make for improv entertainment, But Ron flat out said No Thanks when they asked him to do it. Not too shocking!!
