Mallorca part 4

Today, Sunday, I thought I’d go into town to visit the Cathedral and maybe watch a Mass. This didn’t work out, as there were no tourist visits, only genuine religious participants (which I am not). However, the trip was not wasted as there was a literary festival going on:

99% are teenage girls! They were all waiting patiently for a very long time in order to get their book signed. Just about every teenage girl in Mallorca must have been here.

P.S. From a book review:

One of my favorites from Alice Kellen and from life. I recommend it 100%. It made me cry for practically the entire book, living the characters, their stories, their emotions and experiences... there are no words to define what makes you feel and how beautiful it is.
