my roots


This is Porto Colom in Mallorca, Spain. The place where my grandfather was born. This is where part of my roots lie. I visited the place 16 years ago to see my relatives. I was fascinated by their life. A life of no stress. Of taking a couple of months off during summer and just going to the beach. They are in no hurry to go anywhere. They drink their wine, eat their fat loaded "ensaimadas" and live to be 95. None of them got Alzheimer's. Makes one wonder about what is really important for a nice, long life.
