Formentera - arrived

1 - plane ride to ibiza went without a problem and our transfer to ibiza port was quick and easy
2 - arrived at port and needed to find our tickets for the ferry, get lunch and find the temp luggage locker rental place as well so easier to explore ibiza
3 - decided to stick with the 3:30 pm ferry and put our bags in the locker and found a great place to eat right at the port
p.s. arrived about 11:45 am after 6:00 wake up, not bad
4 - shopping led us to a "flower power " themed store as ibiza was an original hippie town and they had some great shops 
5 - saw some huge yachts--up close view of where they photograph all those 
Hollywood stars that visit 
Ibiza
!
6 - thought our ferry was at 3:30 and Terry hauled both backpacks to what we thought was our ferry, but said 17:00 hours which was not right, kr goes to office and flags TR to come over and ferry is somewhere else and at 16:00 hrs, so 2 diet cokes and 2 fruit smoothies later we get on the ferry
It was a mad dash to load on the luggage as the europeans really go crazy getting things on and the ferry guy yelled at KR because her to go cup could spill on the luggage.  All the luggage stacks in one big pile
7 - 1/2 hour on ferry and we get to a hot and humid formentera to find the transport people were very confused as our times were a 1/2 hour off, but got us hooked up finally to hostal sol i mar. 
Very nice bus driver from 
Romania who's worked here 14 yrs.
Ahhh, hotel on the beach
