A visit to Son Servera and the new instructor

This week has been special, since I celebrated my couple's birthday and mine. The birthday surprise, my couple's sister has come to visit us. My partner didn't expect this surprise. We have visited some places in Mallorca such as Son Servera and the “Esglesia Nova”, that it's an unfinished church, with a special charm. We also visited the port of Portocristo and its small beach.
We went to eat at the famous restaurant "Es cruce" located in the town of Villafranca de Bonany, on the road towards Manacor from Palma. It's a restaurant very famous for a typical Mallorcan dish called "arros brut". The prices  unsurpassed and for this reason there is a lot of waiting time for you to get a table to eat. Not only is it cheap, they also put a lot and it's good. People from all over Mallorca go.

At Globalia, we still don't know exactly the date of the exam of module 7, but they have told us that they will be a month later than expected. This week, knowing this news about the exam, I have rested a few days of studying, but today I take the manual of module 7 again and I will review.
In the theoretical classes, we have had Fernando Arruego for the first time as instructor of module 11.

From what we have heard, he is a fan of airbus airplanes and the MD-80 aircraft.
He speaks very badly about Boeing airplanes, he says that for the good of passengers, it is better for the aircraft to limit the capabilities of the pilot.

A visit to the hangar and other places to eat

This weekend my couple and I went to eat at a buffet at the Son Pardo racecourse. It is right next to the son pacs institute. It is a buffet where we can find typical Mallorcan dishes, such as “ tumbet” which are sliced ​​vegetables such as aubergine, potato and green pepper, with tomato sauce. We also found "trampo", which is a salad of tomatoes, onions and green and red peppers, cut into very small squares. Most of the dishes in the buffet are good, I recommend the site to people who like buffets. Also this weekend I made a cheesecake with jam that was great. My partner and I like to have something sweet to eat after lunch. Right now, while I am writing the blog, I am preparing donuts, typical of this time of year. Next week I will upload photos of how the donuts have been. This week at Globalia we have continued with the hydraulic systems of the plane with Jose Miguel.

Car racing in the puig major and a hidden skydrol tank

This last weekend I went on an excursion to the Puig major, since this weekend there was a car race. Taking advantage of this event, the night before the race, I slept near to the village of Sóller, a small village located between mountains. Sóller seems to me a spectacular village since it is surrounded by mountains and with a special color in its houses. In addition, it has a small railway that reaches the port of Sóller. I camped near the road for the next morning to see the race from there. What impressed me most, is to see the sunrise from the mountain, with the town of Sóller just below. It was a full day that helped me to disconnect from the module 7 exam. Day 9 was my birthday and I brought cookies and croissants to class for my classmates. Upon arriving home, my partner had prepared a cake with 23 candles. The next weekend is her birthday and I will prepare some surprise ...  In theory class we have started the airplane's pneumatic system, but in practic...
