2018-07-28 Cala Pregonda to Cala Fornells, Menorca, Islas Baleares, Spain

Another glorious day today here in Menorca. We have decided to go into the Fornells for a couple of days to stock up and get on terra firma for a day

In Menorca there is no shortage of Menorquins of all sizes …. this one arrives as we prepare to leave Cala Pregonda

As we leave Cala Pregonda we look back to the rugged hills behind the bay and the long path visitors to the beach have to climb before another long walk to their vehicles

We pass the busy Cala Cavalleria on our short trip east

Looking back to Capo Cavalleria

It is not long before we enter the Fornells and again see the white houses lining the shore and the torre on the hill behind

We drop our anchor in the area in the bay which is allocated for free anchoring

Ric and I go ashore to have a walk around and stretch our legs and do some shopping

There are quite a few shops here in the Fornells

After visiting the supermarket and changing the gas cylinder we make our way back to our dinghy

In the evening we again leave the boat and go ashore

We are looking forward to our first meal out for quite sometime

We arrive at Restaurant Llagosta at 8.30 as we had booked

We chose to sit inside with air conditioning as the humidity and temperature this evening was still quite high

We were given a lovely table by one of the open windows at the front of the restaurant

We start off with a delicious tomato salad

For entree we share a wonderful grilled calamari dish

Ric orders a very nice vino tinto

For main course we decided to try one of the amazing signature dishes of lobster grilled with a picante sauce …… absolutely amazing ……the best we have had outside of Tasmania

For dessert we share a wonderfully delicious apple tart and a couple of Spanish dessert wines

We had a wonderful evening and it was well worth the expense and the experience dining at Llagosta
