Is it bad that we haven’t mentally left Port Adriano yet? I mean, who could blame us—sunshine, sailing, and Mallorca? Tough combo to beat. Maybe sharing some “postcards” from the regatta will help us snap out of it... or just keep the daydream going a little longer. 😏 Thanks Oyster Yachts for having us! #oysterpalmaregatta #oysterregatta #cathelco
