On 11th of May, the US AmericanShow Basketball Team comes to Mallorca in the hall Son Moix in Palma. The Harlem Globetrotters call themselves as the best team in the world. But in this show no failures are intended. 2 years ago they played on the island and won over the Washington Generals. The players of the Globetrotters are show talents. Regarding sport these players are the ones who did not manage the jump in the US American professional league but instead they manage fast dribbling and spectacular dunking, what the visitors love. And the team started 10 years ago its own rules, like the 4-point-line, 9 meters distance to the basket. During their “No Limits” tour the Globetrotters come as well to Spain. At their show in 2018 the tickets were sold fast, therefore you should buy them early: proactiv.es.

All musicians live in Santanyi and they plan a tour starting in Spain.

Driving on the countryside you see stonewalls bordering lands or surrounding a house. It is a stony puzzle and a special technic to build these beautiful, traditional stone walls “Pedra en Sec”, part of the UNESCO World heritage since 2018. The builders need skill and mainly strength and physic, with no help of machines. Only 250 margers (the name of the builders) are on the island, just using stones, no cement and no binder. Starting with a ground stone, approx. 1 m long. The limestone comes from the quarries on the island. What does not fit, they make fit. The higher the wall is, the more they use smaller stones, leaving small gaps between the stones, for the rain water to drain away. The last layer is pebble and soil. Prices start at 80 Euro per m2.
