Moliceiro Aveiro

... plastic bottles around the edges. They were obviously expecting stormy weather. They left great heaps of rubbish all over the site.<br><br>We visited Aveiro the nearest town which lived up to its publicity we took the one photograph of their famous boats which was all the brochure had to offer.<br><br>We have become a novelty attraction as there are no other British around. After the activities of the weekend we moved on.<br><br>

... looked like there was no order to the waves and they were crashing all over the place. The sea looked angry that day my friends. The next day, we spotted some surfers and set out to rent some boards but all the surf shops were closed (because all the owners were out surfing). The super cheap ghetto tourist shops that sell **** were open, so we opted for 2 hardcore boogie boards ...

... in their catch everyday. We're going to drag one of their finest home to cook up soon. Being the adventureers we really are, we specifically chose to stay in a small village so we could really experience the real Portuguese lifestyle. How small is this town where we ended up? Hers's some examples: 1- they still put the railway crossing down by hand, 2- you have to walk 10 minutes to ...

... to meet. Later just pack some thing as we have only hand luggage which is 10 kg an go:) In some days I will also know if my french friend will go or not as she has some problems. If now that I will go alone and that will be even more exciting besides I prefer sharing travels. In the mean time I will try to get better as I am still ill after coming back from Poland. My teeth doesn't let me sleep at night. Hope it will stop soon. _______________ Music: Beirut - .Nantes

... enough just to fit a car.<br><br>We then drove back west to Alcobaca. The Cistercian Monastery of Santa Maria was closed, but beautiful enough from the outside. Even at Batalha the Monastery was closed but the square around, was beautiful for a short rest stop. Tired by then we thought of dropping Fatima, but decided to drive up, as it was not far from our ...

16 km kaugusel Coimbrast asuvad Conímbriga varemed, mis on vanimad nii hästi säilinud Rooma varemed Portugalis, ühtlasi nimetatakse seda ka National Monument. Varemete kohta saab ajaloo ja piltidega tutvuda ka muuseumis, kuid me saabusime sinna suhteliselt hilja ja jõudsime napilt ainult varemetes luusida. Kuigi Conímbrigat teatakse eekõige roomlaste tõttu, on tegelikult olemas ka andmeid, et seal tegutseti ...

... oli seal tõepoolest igal pool luuramas, hoolimata sellest, et oli pühapäev, linn totaalselt välja surnud ja poed suletud. Seetõttu polnudki seal muud teha kui käia ülikooli juures luusimas ja osta paar suveniiri. Ülikooli hooned on väga võimsad, nagu oleks Rooma aega ära eksinud. Kahjuks me sees ei saanud käia, aga juba väljast paistis kõik vägagi impressive. Kuna sattusime sinna palmipuude püha ajal, siis nägime juhuslikult pealt ka tseremooniat, mida sel puhul ...

... 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.

... alley all in one piece. For dinner, we stopped at a nice restaurant right on the waterfront. I ordered a plate of cod & we all shared a bottle of red wine. The cod was fantastic, but the red wine was horrible. I've yet to have a decent glass of red wine this entire trip. After we ate, the owner came by our table and treated us all to a free bottle of Port Wine. It was amazing! The Port Wine is very sweet & smooth. I would recommend it to everyone. I believe that is all for today....

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 ...
