On a fairly random evening, my friends and I decided (now that I think about it) rather spontaneously to book a trip to Ibiza.<\/p>\n

In fact, I think we booked the trip first and then started to rationalise why we wanted to go away after. “Oh it’s so and so’s birthday so we could use it as a birthday celebration…”<\/em> and “We just need to get away from the stress of London life”<\/em> were the kind of excuses we started making up but in truth – none of us had been before and we were all just curious and wanted to go and explore Ibiza in person!<\/p>\n

Now Ibiza is well know for it’s party scene and I can not count how many top 10 songs have appeared in the UK singles charts (especially during summer time) were songs that first got their big breaks in Ibiza.<\/p>\n

There are lots of them and that trends just seems set to carry on but I digress. While we did get some partying done (and perhaps I might get into that more on a different ocassion), this post is more about the perhaps more rustic and often overlooked parts of Ibiza.<\/p>\n

Before I carry on though, I have to say, Ibiza is one of the most beautiful (sunny) places I’ve been to in Europe.<\/p>\n

I was taken by surprise by this fact (I know I’m repeating myself here) but I was not expecting the beaches to look as amazing as they did or for any kind of picturesque, postcard scene.<\/p>\n

Places renowned for parting in Europe typically aren’t also known for being particular pretty.<\/p>\n

Anyway, back to the point, we decided on one of our more relaxed days to head over to the old town to explore it in more detail and here’s a photo diary of sorts of what we saw and got up to.<\/p>\n

We spent the bulk of time at Dalt Vila<\/em> (which apparently literally translates to “Upper Town”) before heading down to the more modern parts for lunch, souvenir shopping and a lazy gander in the sun.<\/p>\n
