[@uknewslink]

Great video. My health isn’t good so it’s hard for me to travel. Watching your videos Alex is really good therapy. Thank you.

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

I am so sorry to hear this. Thank you so much for watching . Wishing you well 🤗

Was there in September, and I had a wonderful week. The place is beautiful and the locals are lovely. I'm looking forward to going back next year.

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

Wonderful !

[@keithglasgow5146]

Surprised to see Trotters is staying open through winter. Mo has had that place for many years, good bar.

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

I really hope he does well in the winter ! Will be my first winter video in the resort too!

[@christinanewman5141]

My favorite place to go for our holidays

[@iaingking]

Thanks Alex, I didn't realise it was so busy in October, I was in Can Picafort in September, great place!!

[@petermaguire101]

Cracking video today Trotters looks great just a Peckham spring water for me !

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

😂😂😂 Trotters is legendary in Can Pic - looking forward to making that video !

[@tommymoffat5633]

Omg. How busy was that beach. Fantastic to see it like that. I can’t believe you found another Scottish family to interview 😂😂 brilliant video Alex

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

😂 Tommy they were brilliant ! I can’t believe they went to the water park too !!! Hardcore in October !

[@petek5523]

The Scotts from the highlands are taking over the lowlands 😅🎉😂😊, love it 😍

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

It was such a pleasure to meet them! Fantastic crowd!

Hi Alex,enjoyed video as brought back memories of our stay in Son Balou Hotel. If you’re up that way I’d recommend Tapas in Salitre Restaurant, accessed from Road or by stairs from Prominade. Great to watch the footfall along Prominade and see the waves breaking against the shore. We’ve passed Trotters on transport many times but not been inside. The iconic Robin Reliant on the roof stands out for all to see. Lovely to see the sunshine in Majorca as we’re staying in not so sunny Torquay. Hopefully tomorrow, Saturday, we’ll see some sun. Keep walking 😂😂😂❤🐸

can picafort seems a nice resort, i went for a day out once... when i came to majorca on october 8th the plane flew over the fire, i thought it was a plane crash at first!! when i was there, i found cala bona and cala millor were very busy, then i went to puerto pollensa where it was quieter but very pleasant. :-) ...... anyway, great video, as usual alex, and id better get saving up for next may!

[@ElizabethNoble-r9e]

Thanks Alex-we were in Son Baulo beach on the day you filmed this and could see the smoke of the forest fire.Wish I had been able to catch up with you!

[@mikemoreno4469]

Lovely video Alex. I went to Can Picafort wirh my parents in the late 60s and it is amazing to see how it has changed.

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

Oh wow Mike ! I can imagine !

[@Glyn-r]

Thanks for bringing us some sun Alex. Shame about the fire. I'm always careful when camping out in mallorca. Hey, what's going on over there. I've never known mallorca to be so busy in October. I'm glad some places are trying to stay open a bit longer. Appreciate your hard work coming up to end of season. You will certainly deserve your 5 month break apart from a livestream on Christmas day. 😂

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

Lol ! Literally Glyn - 5 months off just 😭😭😭😭

[@lukeabbotts5766]

This video was amazing cant wait to be back to this resort in may

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

Thanks so much Luke !

[@waynebateman8719]

Staying in Can Picafort at moment and surprised how busy the hotel is. It's still 100% full. I normally stay other side of island this time of year which is quieter The smoke from fire was concerning and hearing all the sirens going past as at the time wasn't sure what was on fire

[@johnnycougouluegnes5581]

super endroit j'y serais l'annee prochaine en septembre

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

Fantastique!

[@belindajaneharris2579]

The lovely Mo at Trotters xx

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

He is a real gentleman

[@TheVigilant109]

Can Picafort looks beautiful. It's a pity about the fire. Best wishes, John

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

It was - couldn’t believe it - I’ve got some other footage I’ll share Monday

[@AudreyAllan-um4lg]

oh our happy place ,thanks for this Alex🙂

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

Enjoyed making this (apart from the fire scenes!)

[@michaelburden5895]

Hi alex, just back friday 18 october from hotel more not far from alcudia old town weather was good hotel nice, no problems both ways at palma airport, large queues but everything moved ok. The ash from the fire reached our hotel and you could smell the smoke but not over bearing. Taxi fares were reasonable also coffees drinks etc. I thought alcudia port looked a little dated didnt realise the bridge had gone! Majorca is very pretty in places hope they dont make it too difficult for us to visit! Think it was our eighth visit to the island. Best wishes.

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

8 visits! Wow! That's amazing! Great review of your trip, and I hope you'll be back!

[@mikewest2428]

Hola Alex I was in can picafort today I took the bus from alcudia I spent a couple of hours it's so sad that I missed you the same thing happened in alcudia last year may go to the alcudia strip tomorow to pick up a few items take care😂xx

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]

No way !!! I wasnt sure what my plan was that day - when I saw the smoke I headed can pic way !

[@ibonechevarria-o7k]

[@MallorcaUnderTheSun]
