Places to see in ( Fornells - Spain )
Fornells is a village located in a bay in the north of the Balearic island of Minorca, Spain. Fornells is estimated to have a population of about 1000 people which increases in the summer due to tourism. Fornells' native people are known as Fornellers in the Catalan language and in Spanish.
Fornells was founded to serve a small defensive watch tower, built at the beginning of the 17th century as a defence against the Barbary pirates for whom Fornells Bay provided the perfect safe haven. This watch tower proved to be insufficient, so in 1625 King Phillip IV of Spain ordered a castle to be added. This project was not successful due to lack of funds. In 1637 the building project was recommenced as the castle of Sant Antoni. During construction, a small village was formed around the castle, occupied by construction workers and soldiers, this village becoming the basis of modern-day Fornells. During the 18th century the castle was held alternately by the British and French, before returning to Spanish dominion in 1782. King Charles III of Spain then ordered the partial destruction of the castle and all that is left of the military past of Fornells is the watch tower on the headland, outside the village. From there to the west Cavallería Cape can be seen, and to the east the massive bulk of Sa Mola, forming the eastern side of the entrance.
Fornells Bay is deep, measuring 5 kilometres long and 2 kilometres wide. The narrow entrance regulates the force of the open sea. Sufficiently narrow to offer protection, the entrance allows water to enter the bay while restricting the waves. The wind is not so easily restrained. The surrounding hills are not high enough to keep out the Tramontane (Tramontana in Catalan), which has shaped the rocks and bent the trees over until the branches almost touch the ground.
Fornells' natural harbour is filled with llauts, the traditional Minorcan fishing craft, used for fishing lobsters. Having several small beaches around the bay, the harbour offers a number of aquatic activities for tourists, including catamaran excursions, kayaking and windsurfing. The annual fiesta de Sant Antoni is held on the fourth weekend in July

Испания: о. Менорка, Fornells & Platges de Fornells
В середине октября мы совершили интересное путешествие по Каталонии (Испания).
Основной целью нашей поездки был остров Менорка (Menorca), где мы на автомобиле объездили весь остров.
Так как самолет из Москвы летит в Барселону (прямых рейсов на о.Менорка нет), то мы запланировали для посещения и несколько мест в Barcelona и ее окрестностях: Monasterio de Montserrat, Roda de Bara, Siurana и Sitges.
На острове Менорка мы посетили следующие города и деревушки, бухты и пляжи, прочие достопримечательности острова (в порядке нашего движения): Son Bou (все 5 дней жили мы в отеле «Hotel Valentin Son Bou»), Mahon, Fortaleza de la Mola, Calo Blanс, Cales Coves, Cala en Porter, Cala Galdana, Cala Macaralla & Macarelleta, Cala en Turqueta, Ciutadella, Cala Morell, Cala Algaiarens, Cala Pregonda, Platges de Fornells & Fornells, Monte Toro, Macaret & Addaia, Favaritx, Es Grau, Mesquida.
Именно в таком порядке я и буду монтировать фильмы.
Не уходите далеко – наше путешествие продолжается!
P.S. Пока все свежо в памяти моей – готов ответить на Ваши вопросы по маршруту!

Fornells и Platges de Fornells - деревни, расположенные в бухте на севере острова Менорка, Испания. Проживают около 1000 человек, но летом добавляются туристы. Местные жители известны как Fornellers на каталонском языке и на испанском языке.
Деревня Fornells была создана для обслуживания небольшой оборонительной часовой башни, построенной в начале 17 века в качестве защиты от пиратов, для которых бухта Fornells Bay была идеальным убежищем. Эта сторожевая башня оказалась недостаточной, поэтому в 1625 году король Испании Филипп IV приказал добавить и замок. Но башня не была достроена из-за нехватки средств. Во время строительства вокруг замка была построена небольшая деревня, занятая строителями и солдатами, эта деревня стала основой современного Форнеллса. В XVIII веке деревня была поочередно занята то англичанами, то французами, а затем вернулась к испанскому владычеству в 1782 году.
В 1798 году деревня была местом высадки английской эскадры во время захвата Менорки англичанами.
Залив Форнеллс глубокий, длиной 5 километров и шириной 2 километра. Узкий вход в залив не дает пройти большим волнам.
Естественная гавань Fornells используется местными жителями для традиционного рыболовного промысла омаров.
Имея несколько небольших пляжей вокруг залива, гавань предлагает множество водных развлечений для туристов, включая экскурсии на лодках, экскурсии на катамаране, каякинг и виндсерфинг.
Ежегодная фиеста-де-Сан-Антони проводится в четвертый уик-энд в июле.

Menorca, Isla Paraiso, Arenal D’en Castell, Fornells.
October break took us to the beautiful island of Menorca. We stayed at the Isla Paraiso hotel in Arenal D’en Castell which was really nice and our apartment had great views over the sea.
The staff were amazing and really friendly but the stars for us were Maas (not sure if I’ve spelt that right but it was the friendly girl from the kids club and mini disco) Jose kept me at the bar with his chat and magic tricks and the lovely Gloria who managed to get me on stage to do karaoke and do the actions to baby shark.
All there is to say is that we had the best time and thank everyone so much for their hospitality. We will miss Menorca very much indeed.

It’s been a long time since you felt the ocean breeze on your face while knowing you were doing something important. Maybe it hasn’t even happened to you before. Well, maybe it’s time.
It’s time for you to take your eyes away from the screen. Look up. and see the world in front of you.
It’s time to stop having endless meetings in a room and start meeting the people who understand your vision and want to invest in it.
It’s time to stop looking for the right contact and just start looking for the right way to connect.
It’s time to stop pivoting and start building
to stop pitching and start listening
it’s time to drink less coffee and and breath more fresh air
It’s time to bootstrap less and hike more
it’s time to decelerate so you are able to accelerate
You need the calm before the storm.
You need to slow down to be prepared to speed up
You need a startup decelerator
You need Menorca Millennials

Recipes by Chef Romain Fornell, Masterchef performed at the Masterclass on the occasion of the 2007 World Gourmet Summit.
About Chef Romain Fornell:
Going back to the basics is what Romain Fornell believes in. Convinced that without knowing the products you cannot create something interesting, he spends most of his time learning how ingredients find their way into the kitchen. His emphasis on having the best ingredients won him a Michelin star in France and recently, another one in Spain. Fornell is currently the highest exponent of new French cuisine in Barcelona and by extension, Spain. His passion, coupled with experience gained from working with the legendary Alain Ducasse, allowed him to come up with daring and spectacular innovations. Taking classics like Escoffier and Catalonian cuisine, he infused them with his own inventions and created mind-boggling yet delicious dishes like the suckling pig confit and sardine couscous.

Пляж Кала эн Туркета (Cala en Turqueta) - находится в 10 километрах от города Ciutadella. Расположен пляж между мысами des Tambors и na Foradada, а так же у подножия горы, с построенной там оборонительной башней Talaia d’Artrutx. Под названием пляжа понимается нападение турецких пиратов на остров.
Это девственный и закрытый пляж, с красивейшим заливом. По краям этого морского рукава стоят высокие скалы, покрытые густым сосняком. Пляж входит в состав заповедника и имеет типичный пейзаж для южного побережья острова Менорка.
Этот пляж со склоном из мелкого белого песка делится на две части скалами. Так же пляж характеризуется кристально чистой водой и пологим уклоном в море. В бухте преобладают юго-восточные, южные и западные ветра.
В бухте возможна постановка судов на якорь, с длиной не более 12 метров и осадкой не более 2 метров.
Доступ на пляж по дороге прост, следуя указательными дорожными знаками. Автомобиль можно запарковать на бесплатной парковке с вместимостью 120 автомашин. Парковка находится в 850 метрах от пляжа, примерно 15 минут ходьбы пешком. Рядом с пляжем парковки платные.

Demolition of the historic Fornell building, circa 1802, St. Augustine, Fl.
Video shot by Scott Manny of St. Augustine Entertainer - Taking down one of the oldest buildings in the historic downtown did not go easily for a demolition crew that stood puzzled after a couple of hours of plucking at its sturdy coquina walls late Thursday night. Local business owners, city officials and a solemn neighborhood crowd watched as the Spanish second period building, gave quarter shortly before midnight and touched a single hipped-roof corner to the ground in a gesture that seemed almost genteel, like a final bow. The building at the corner of Spanish Street and Hypolita first showed foundation cracks earlier in the day after a construction crew had dug a deep trench along its foundation wall on Hypolita.
Owner and local contractor Len Weeks said an engineer and preservation expert had been called in to look at the building before the decision was made to take the building down.
Vice-Mayor Nancy Sikes-Klein was also on scene, and stated, “This is a great loss to our city and its citizens. This building was an historic treasure, and right now my heart is breaking to see this.”
With the backlit red dust still swirling – the crew and Weeks aided the former tenants of an apartment on the second floor in retrieving some clothing and a few belongings. Weeks could also be seen comforting the owner of the Bath Junkie shop, which had occupied the downstairs of the building for the past 12 years. Weeks said he had been preparing to pour concrete around the foundation when the initial collapse on the northwest corner of the building occurred. “I don’t know why this happened and I am deeply sorry about it.”
Mayor Joe Boles could also be seen milling through the crowd and offering condolences to some residents who were still visibly upset. “This is a sad moment and a great loss for everyone. From what we heard from the experts, there was no alternative and it had to come down for safety of people and the surrounding buildings.”
Some local residents speculated that the building, built around 1802-1807, may have been undermined by the ongoing renovation/construction on Hypolita. Others felt the decision to take the building down was made a bit hastily.
You can see it was sturdy as can be by the time it has taken to bring it the rest of the way down. I know they say the had experts, but couldn't they have just waited and studied the situation a little more before taking such a drastic step? I don't feel Spanish Street will ever be the same, said Donna Hicks, a native of the downtown area who said she had many memories of the building and how the street once looked when she was a child. I feel like its personal. I guess it is because pretty soon - the way things are going - all we'll have left one day are Disney-style reconstructions of historic buildings, and they will all sell ice cream. I hope someone will find out more about this before its too late.
