Although it is common to see tourists on the steps of the basilica resting for a few moments while they stroll through the historic centre, in this case, the tourists settled down without any problem in the middle of the street and laid out their snacks such as water, beer and ‘finger food’, taking advantage of the fact that the area was very quiet with few other tourists about.

This is a place frequented by tourists and a key point in visits of the historic centre of the city, but not at this time of year, despite the sunshine and mild temperatures. The tourists were so relaxed and comfortbale that they even took off their shoes.
According to Palma’s municipal regulations, there is technically nothing to stop people having a snack while they stroll through the city, but depending on the location, the inconvenience they may cause, the mess they leave behind, the consumption of alcohol or the space they occupy, a fine is a possibility.

Scabs, go to a restaurant. You add zero value to Palma!
Seriously?! A "news" article!? Although, i guess we should be pleased that there is lack of real news on this lovely island. But having read the first few articles it does seem pretty obvious that we are living in a total surveillance state and controlling world now; fines for drones, eating lunch in the sun, living in campervans. Wow what a sad world, and what's sadder is that people embrace it!
A...... Why ? B...... Enter 5000 protesters tomorrow.
