Just thought I'd add a couple things if anyone was considering going to Majorca while you're over there.
I was there a few years ago and it's an island that has a lot of different options. Palma is a pretty cool city, not too big but not small. The harbor is really cool, lots of giant yachts. The resort areas to the east and west of Palma are so-so, stay away from Magaluf unless you're into being surrounded by drunken Brits brawling in the street. There are a number of smaller towns around the island with beautiful beaches that are relatively quiet. The coastal road, particularly on the north side of the island are pretty great to drive, winding roads along the cliffs that pass through white washed villages. Overall, a definite highlight. I can't speak for the other islands, but I'd certainly go back to majorca if I had the chance.
BTW, FC Barcelona will be playing at home on Aug 23rd and 28th. Games at the Nou Camp are an incredible experience.
