I visited the city of Ciutadela twice during our recent holiday in Menorca. The first time was withe my wife, although we didn’t stay long, instead catching the bus across the island to the current capital, Mahon (or Mao as it appears on all the signs).

The second visit I made solo, leaving my wife to read her book beside the swimming pool, while I took the bus so I could explore and take photographs.

I took a whole bunch during this visit, both on film and digital, and below are a few of the latter, taken on the gorgeous (and quiet) backstreets of the city’s old town area. Interestingly, almost all my pictures in this part of the city are in portrait orientation, suiting the narrow streets, I think.

I still have a bunch more photos to share from the trip to Menorca, but I haven’t even started scanning the film photos yet!
