Hotel Jardim Aveiro

We arrived without incident after a short and pleasant journey. Odd campsite mainly permanent encampments! Most of them looked like they had been there for many years. We were entertained by families arriving over the weekend to pack up for the winter. They cleared out all the rubbish that they had accumulated over the summer. They then covered their caravan.awning and covered area with tarpaulin and tied it down and put stones ...

Aveiro is a sweet little coastal town with great long white beaches for surfing and nice flat rivers for kiting. Jon got out kiting our first day there but unfortunately squeezed way too much Vaseline in his new bindings to really enjoy his ride. He was kiting in storm winds on our smallest kite, so no kiting for me. The surf was insane that day and no one was in the water. It kind ...

... couldn't stay with Albert and Maria while we went on our way, knowing there was still some ice cream in the freezer and a soccer game coming on. After some convincing, and some paniced looks from Albert and Maria, the boys settled in on the train for our 3 hour ride to Granja. Granja is in Northern Portugal, about 20 minutes south of Porto (Portugal's second largest city). The train was ...

It's seems that we are lucky. Today we got a response from girl in Bratislava so still need just two places to stay. Hope we will find them as quick as this ones :) What is more I'm now trying to get some informations in the internet about places which we should see. As I wrote before we won't use any guide besides ones in real. Music: Camiel - Take me to this place

... town’s population are students. Our room had a good view of the University on top of the hill. We wandered out by the riverside for the Indian restaurant only to find it closed. Back at the hotel, the owner & his girlfriend helped us prepare some soup & upma in the kitchen. After this great dinner & a long 500 km journey behind us, we retired to our bed.

... keltide ajal. Roomlased seadsid ennast sisse 1. saj pKr, mil see kasvas ja õitses suureks linnaks. 3. saj olid elanikud ohustatud sissetungijate eest ning ehitasid enda kaitseks linnale kaitsvad müürid ümber. Kahjuks polnud see piisav sueevidele (germaani hõimude rühmale), kellel õnnestus 468.a vallutada linn. Kohalikud põgenesid Coimbrasse, säästes sellega Conímbrigat suuremast hävingust. Seetõttu võib ...

... maailmas! Ülikool on jagatud 8 teaduskonnaks, kus õpib ca 22 000 tudengit. Tudengi tunneb ära selle järgi, et nad kannavad riiete peal musta ürpi/keepi, mille peale tavaliselt õmmeldakse erinevaid embleeme (nt teaduskonna oma), mille järgi saab õpilase kohta nii mõndagi teada, ilma, et oleks temaga vestelnud.<br><br>Ülikoolil on mitmeid erinevaid hooneid ja need kõik asuvad mäe otsas, kust saab imetleda vaateid linnale. Kõige tuntum ja ühtlasi ka traditsionaalsem koht on ...

... sajandit kahanes elanike arv 2/3 võrra; täna elab seal ca 56 500 inimest. 1808. a raius Barra kanal tagasi tee ookeanini ning Aveiro hakkas taas jalgu alla võtma. Peatusime seal vaid selleks, et jalgu sirutada ja päikest nautida; pildistasime &#382;igulis istuvad meest, kes oli ilmselt oma autoga ühevanune; tegime kesklinnale tiiru peale ja peale paari jäätist jätkasime sõitu.

... our Orientation about these street gangs of kids who can easily gang up on a person & rob them. Well, I believe last night we had a run in with sort of that same kind of thing. A few of us were walking down this back-alley, and a few kids came up to us yelling & tugging at our clothes and pants pockets. We just sort of brushed them off & began to walk away. Well, my friend Brinn decided to pull her camera out to photograph these kids, and before we knew it, these kids were all ...

Hello...<br><br>I'm in Portugal now. Last I wrote was in Toledo, I think...I took a night train to Lisbon, where I stayed for one night. It's nice, as far as big cities go, but it's a big city. It's very diverse and the people are real laid back. <br><br>After that I went to Sintra, just west of Lisbon. It's a little town in the mountains. Lots of shade, green, and fresh air. I spent many more days there than I planned to. The first night I arrived ...
