such as Cistus and tall heaths ; this was, no doubt, due to the

On March 11th we left for the Port of Alcudia, situated in a 

 magnificent sandy bay in the east of the island, where the 

 scenery differed very much from Gas Catala. There are exten- 

 sive flat lands, where formally rice was grown, with numerous 

 dykes and large lagoons of brackish water, bounded on the north 

 and south by hilly land, with plenty of wild vegetation. The 

 weather was very hot and at times very windy.
