What's the weather like at the moment?

The people who run Valencia should be in jail. Absolutely shambolic mismanagement of this disaster. Turning away specialist disaster recovery teams, not informing families, blaming Sánchez... If Baleares ever goes through something similar, I hope the Govern shows some competence. People still vote PP even though they don't give a shit about real people. (See also Prestige disaster in Galicia)

Agree. The PP are in a coalition with the far-right Vox in Valencia, aren't they? Horrible people who, as you say, also don't give a shit about real people.

We were sea swimming in an almost deserted Cala Gracioneta yesterday too. Beautiful weather and the sea was a great temperature.

Looks a bit windy on Formentera right now - and I bet Se Pujols is now a ghost town?

Maybe some of the locals will cool down a little bit , and stop the bad mood against tourism.

completely off-topic (we are in the weather thread), but the situation won't get any better just because the island is quiet now. there are seasonal workers living in tents which is a totally untenable situation and that's what's creating the bad mood. no one is against tourism per se, everyone here is totally aware that we all live from tourism here, some very directly and some indirectly. we've discussed this elsewhere in the forums already but airbnb (and all illegal apartment rentals) have properly fcuked up the housing market on the balearic islands and that is currently the biggest issue here. maybe you didn't mean it badly, but I find your comment is out of place.

Was it rammed at Chinois ?

Last date of the year , I think ?

It was pretty busy but room to move and dance. Felt like fewer / shorter queues for the smoking area and bars than for Gerd Janson at Trip back in April when Chinois was the only club open on the island (Pikes was also open on Saturday for their Closing).

Chinois really need to sort out the toilets as only having one set of toilets resulted in long queues and bottlenecks on Saturday. It's a lovely club though and the soundsystem & visuals are fantastic.

in belgium in 2021 exactly the same thing happened, in a valley (former metallurgical industrial zone, the largest in the world at the time before china took over the entire market) thousands of people lost everything, most of them were unable to rebuild their homes given the current cost of materials and labor! more than half of the houses were bought by neighboring countries for next to nothing , and now this house was quickly rebuilt and rented at twice the market price in this region, the others , 3 years later still live mostly in unsanitary houses!

this little story to say that what is going to happen in valence is going to be very similar
 
more rain!

we just had a really good downpour the last two hours and tomorrow ibiza is on orange alert again for heavy rains. wed and thu might bring a little more rain as well. it's genuinely exactly what we need! a few rainy days in a row. fantastic.
