A day in the mountains

After a few weeks of many hours studying, tranquility arrives; less in Son Pacs, which seems that all teachers have reached an agreement to give us more work. This weekend, the weather wasn’t very good I went to the mountain to do an excursion. The mountain is one of the places where I feel peaceful and helps me to leave my mind blank. I took the opportunity to look for some mushrooms and identify them. I have to say that I don't know all the mushrooms of the Balearic Islands, but the "eslatasangs" and the "cames seca" I can identify them.
This year there aren’t many mushrooms, but I found some around the village of Esporles. People don’t say where these mushrooms can be found.
In my house I have more time to cook, and this time I have prepared one of my favorite dishes, the rabbit with onion. I have to say that I have had a great dish. For dessert I made some churros with chocolate.
Enough of so much fat, I have to do more sports, that day I went for a run and do a little more sports than usual. In Globalia training we have made the oil change of the Piper shock absorbers, and to perform this task we have had to lift the plane over jacks to be able to work under it. It has been a very interesting practice. In theory classes we continue to give module 11 with different teachers that explain each sub-module.
In English class, Catherine asked us to post a picture of our room on the blog. Then you can see my room:

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. In the workshop, Pere and I have finished assembling the turbochargers, we have stopped all the sc...

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...
