<i>Oh tempo que já estávamos para visitar Aveiro. Mas sempre foi daquelas coisas, fomos adiando, horários não facilitavam e fomos adiando mais um bocado. Até que dia 10 fomos mesmo.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Levantámos-nos a uma hora ordinária para uma pessoa de férias, pegámos nas trouxas, deixámos água aos bichos e alá que se faz tarde. </i></div>

<i><b>Aveiro</b>. É uma das cidades mais encantadoras de Portugal. E eu que venero <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2014/08/quinta-da-regaleira-sintra.html" target="_blank">Sintra</a>. É mais conhecida pelo seu estuário, os moliceiros, pela quantidade de edifícios de arte nova e a ria. A ria que entra pela cidade adentro, criando uma cidade deveras encantadora. Fresca, encantadora com as suas muitas pontes, tão bonita. E muito viva! Muita coisa para ver e experimentar.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Primeiro as <b>Praias</b>. Começámos pela praia da Costa Nova, com as casas tão características. Muito cuidadas e coloridas. Transportou-me de volta aos anos 50. Muito bonito.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We've wanted to visit Aveiro for so long. But it was always the same thing. Our schedules didn't matched and we ended up putting the trip off for bit more. Up until yesterday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We got up at a ridiculous time for a person in holiday. We took our crap, feed the animals and off we went.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Aveiro.</b> It is one of the most charming cities of Portugal. And I venerate <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2014/08/quinta-da-regaleira-sintra.html" target="_blank">Sintra</a>. It is best known for its estuary, the "moliceiros", the amount of new art buildings and the river. The river that goes into the city, creating a truly charming city. Fresh and so charming with its many bridges. So beautiful! And very much alive! Plenty to see and experience.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
First the <b>beaches</b>. We started on the beach of Costa Nova, with such cute houses. Very well cared for and so colorful. It carried me back to the 50s, so very beautiful.</div>

After getting our bellys full we went to the beach "Barra", and visited the tallest lighthouse of the Iberian Peninsula and the 2nd in Europe.<br />
<br />
Then we went to the center of Aveiro, we sailed the "moliceiro" for about 45 minutes with the right to a guided tour of the most important sites. And sightseeing. Aveiro is a very charming and beautiful city. What we missed was the infant Dom Pedro park, the dunes of São Jacinto and a visit to the so renowned factory Vista Alegre.<br />
<br />
All the more reason to go back.<br />

Hello people! I hope this week has been good. Without much stuck up people I hope: P</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
My 1st day of the trip to Venice started well, but as soon as we checked in I became stressed, because apparently it had been sold more tickets than the existing seats on the plane. Result, our seats were on hold, <b>standby</b>. An unacceptable situation that shows a lack of consideration and professionalism. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
I was begining to think that all the effort I made in order to have 5 days off of work (not holiday but days off, imagine the amount of crazy hours I've had to do) had been in vain. But fortunatly we did manage to embark as planned.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<b>Tip</b>: always arrive two hours before, it was what saved us.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
We arrived at Marco Polo airport just before 13h, and as we left the plane, we were welcomed by a tremendous heat! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
We reached Venice throught the water-bus, which took about 1h30 to reach the St.Mark's Square (blue line). I advise you to get water-bus (<a href="http://www.alilaguna.it/en" target="_blank">official website</a>) if the group has less than 4 people, if you're 4 or more, I advise taking the taxi instead. Much faster and comfortable, and the difference is less than 20-30 euros. If you can email the hotel you're staying at and schedule. They might get you a discount and you're off set with the 2 way trip. And believe me it's well worth it, I felt like a diva getting inside that boat!<i> </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Olá people! Espero que a semana tenha sido boa. Sem muita gente possuída espero :P</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>O 1º dia da viagem a Veneza começou bem, mas assim que fizemos o check-in fiquei logo stressada, porque pelos vistos tinham sido vendidos mais bilhetes do que lugares existentes no avião. Resultado, os nossos lugares estavam como<b> standby</b>. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Uma situação inaceitável que demonstra uma falta de consideração e profissionalismo estonteante.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Já estava a ver que todo o esforço feito para juntar 5 dias (não de férias, mas de folgas, imaginem as horas loucas que andei a fazer) tinha sido em vão. Mas lá conseguimos embarcar como previsto.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i><b>Tip</b>: cheguem sempre 2 horas antes, foi o que nos valeu.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Chegámos ao aeroporto de Marco Polo um pouco antes das 13h, e assim que saímos do avião, fomos brindados por um calor imenso! (A coisa prometia)</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Até Veneza fomos de water-bus, que demorou cerca de 1h30 até à praça de São Marcos (linha azul). Eu aconselho a ir de water-bus (<a href="http://www.alilaguna.it/en" target="_blank">site oficial</a>) se forem menos que 4 pessoas, se forem 4 ou mais, aconselho o táxi. Bem mais rápido e confortável, e a diferença é pouca, menos de 20-30 euros. Se puderem perguntem e agendem com o hotel em que vão ficar pode ser que consigam um desconto e ficam logo com a ida e volta. E acreditem que vale a pena, senti-me uma diva ao entrar para o barco! </i></div>

For the day we arrived we didn't schedule anything, because there could be delays with the plane and honestly we arrived jaded and the torrid heat caught us off guard. But if you have the strength, the city of Verona is just 1 hour away by train ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
But we still went exploring. We reached the St.Mark's Square and from there we wandered through the streets and many bridges of the beautiful city, watching the shops and artists. We still mange to drink a good coffee and everything. And of course eat some <i>gelato</i>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Para o dia em que chegámos não marcámos nada,
até porque podia haver atrasos com o avião e sinceramente chegámos
estafados e o calor tórrido apanho-nos desprevenidos. Mas se tiverem forças, a cidade de Verona fica a 1h de comboio de Veneza ;)</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i><i>Mas não deixámos de ir explorar. Fomos logo ter à praça de São Marcos e daí vagueamos pelas ruas e pontes da bela cidade, observando as lojas e os artistas. Ainda conseguimos beber um bom café e tudo. E claro gelato. </i></i></div>

The city is truly magical and unique. I want to live there !!<br />
<br />
<u><b>Practical issues:</b></u><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
We booked the plane online through the edreams site but the hotel Ca 'dei Conti (<a href="http://www.cadeiconti.com/" target="_blank">official site</a>) we ended up booking it at a local agency called Abreu as well as the excursions. All of it booked six months before and it still wasn't cheap.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
I just want to draw attention to the fact that Venice is an expensive city. An expresso (our regular coffee) are 2 euros at best, and meals were around 7 euros just for a pizza or pasta and outside of the central zone. If you sit for example on one of the oldest pastry shops in Venice (and Europe) at St. Mark's Square, you'll pay an extra fee for the place and service. No wonder that a normal coffee can cost up to 30 euros on one of those beautiful and old cafes. But please don't forget to go and take a look, they usually have live music at night :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
And don't forget that in Italy, as well as in other European countries, tourists pay a tourist tax, usually on the day of check-out, which is around 4 euros / person / day. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<br />
<i><i>A cidade é deveras mágica e totalmente única. Quero ir morar para lá!!</i></i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: left;">
<i><i><u><b>Questões Práticas: </b></u></i></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i><i>Fizemos a marcação do avião online através do site edreams mas o hotel Ca' Dei Conti (<a href="http://www.cadeiconti.com/pt-pt/" target="_blank">site</a>) acabámos por marcar na agência Abreu tal como as visitas guiadas.Tudo 6 meses antes e mesmo assim não foi barato. Quero só alertar para o facto de Veneza ser uma cidade cara. </i></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i><i>Café expresso (o nosso café normal) são 2 euros na melhor das hipóteses, e as refeições andaram à volta dos 7 euros só por uma pizza ou uma massa e isto fora da zona central. Se se sentarem por exemplo numa das mais antigas pastelarias de Veneza (e da Europa) na Praça de São Marcos, paga-se uma taxa extra pelo sitio e pelo serviço. Não é de espantar que um café normal possa custar até 30 euros num desses cafés lindíssimos e antigos. Mas não deixem de ir dar uma vista de olhos, eles costumam ter musica ao vivo à noite ;) </i></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i><i>E não se esqueçam que em Itália e noutros países europeus paga-se um taxa turística, normalmente no dia do check-out, que ronda os 4 euros/pessoa/dia.</i></i></div>

Yes!!<br />
At long last I've been to Venice if only for 4 (intense) days.<br />
<br />
Well worth those (extra) work days. It was always go-go-go, super hot, I must have taken 2-3 baths a day, ate a bunch of ice creams, ate a lot of past as well and had a blast!! Love it. One of those must visit places before you die. So special!<br />
I hope you guys get to enjoy the next photos and that they keep you interested for the next, more detailed, post about my trip to the gorgeous Venice. Enjoy the glimpse ;) <br />

<i>Sim !!<br />Finalmente fui a Veneza embora tenha sido por apenas 4 (intensos) dias.<br /><br />Valeu bem a pena os dias de trabalho (extra). Foi sempre go-go-go, muito calor, eu devo ter tomado 2-3 banhos por dia, comi um monte de gelados e um monte de massa e diverti-me tanto !! Adorei. Um dos lugares a visitar antes de morrer. Tão especial!<br />Espero que desfrutem das próximas fotos e que consigam manter-vos interessados para os próximos post, mais detalhados, sobre a minha viagem à bela Veneza. Aproveitem o vislumbre;)</i><br />

This is kinda of late (ups) Lady Gaga gave a concert at the Meo Arena back in November (as I recall). But as I seem to be always late on everything making this post seemed appropriate.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
It was a sea of confetti and lights. The audience loved it and threw cuddly, flags and even a jacket that she end up wearing. A still exuberant display transfiguration of herself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
The All Powerful Lady Gaga walked and danced in a thong. Changed clothes on the stage with lights on and focused, not to mention the other 14 costume changes. 15 inflatable trees sprouted out of nowhere during the Venus song. And always with Andy Warhool's reference present.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
She's still provocative, but not so shocking and unusual as she was at the beginning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
A big show!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<i>A Lady Gaga veio a Portugal para dar um Concerto no Meo Arena em Novembro (se bem me lembro). Mas como ultimamente ando atrasada em tudo, fazer este post pareceu adequado.</i> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Foi um mar de confetes e luzes. O publico adorou e atirou peluches, bandeiras e ate blusões que ela chegou a vestir. Uma continua exibição exuberante de transfigurações de si mesma. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>A Lady Toda Poderosa Gaga andou e dançou de tanga. Trocou de roupa em pleno palco e com as luzes bem focadas, fora as outras 14 mudanças de roupa. 15 árvores insufláveis como que brotaram do nada durante a musica Vénus. E sempre com a referência de Andy Warhool presente.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

Love é estúpido. Love é lixo. Love é como ir à Berska. (Estou amargurada sim) Não atino com ele. Encontrar um Love que me traga paz de espirito, de mente, alegria, amor mas que seja desafiante. Que me faça uma pessoa melhor. Sem maldade ou idiotices. Quero ser amada será pedir muito? Pelos vistos é. Então esquece lá Love. Deixa-te estar sossegadinho no teu canto. Vá de retro a satanás sff, que não tenho paciência, nem mais vontade. </div>

Who doesn't like visiting Oceanariums? I sure do!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
Lisbon Oceanarium is part of a legacy left by Expo 98 (an international exhibition held in 1998 which brought over 11 million visitors). It reproduces life of 4 distinct environments: the Temperate Pacific, the North Atlantic, the Antarctic and the Tropical Indian.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
There's a small forest whose humidity and heat are perfect for tropical birds. And also pools with the most colorful fish, the funniest names and odd shapes, swimming around happily in front of you as if they could be reached not only by your eyes but also your hands. <span style="line-height: 1.8em;">But the main attraction are the Sea-otters, so cute resembling children playing delighted with the visitor's attention.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
All of this <span style="line-height: 1.8em;">wrapped in a rich audible atmosphere, with big windows & sounds taken from each habitat and gently played there, so as to transport you directly into the water world.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 1.8em;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;"><i>Há uma pequena floresta, cuja humidade e calor são perfeitos para as aves tropicais. E também piscinas com peixes coloridos, nomes engraçados e formas estranhas, nadando alegremente à nossa como se pudessem ser alcançados não só pelos olhos, como também pelas mãos. Mas a principal atracção são as lontras, tão simpáticas assemelhando-se a crianças brincando satisfeitas com toda a atenção dos visitantes. </i></span></div>

But my favorites have to be the medusas, tropical fishes and sea-horses. Something about those vibrant colors, gentle movement or the small size that got me mesmerized like a kid in a candy store. Just can't step away from those windows ;p</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">There were doubts about buying it. But all it took was a strong flick of the wrist, and the toy proved to be exciting and maddening for Lia, resulting in a relentless obsession. She had to catch it, no matter how high the the toy was or how fast it was. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">The intense persecution left her breathless. Literally. After 1 hour there she was, with her tongue sticking out, laying on the ground and keen eyes on the toy (and our arm left sore). But giving up never! Doesn't matter how drained she was, the fur ball would crawl (laterally), stretched her paw and sharp nail in an attempt to grab the damn teasing toy. Ah!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Na hora de comprar suscitou dúvida. Mas bastou um forte movimento de pulso, e a fita demonstrou-se aliciante e alucinante para a Lia, originando uma obsessão implacável. Ela tinha que apanhá-lo, independentemente do quão alta a fita estivesse ou quão rápida fosse.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>A perseguição intensa deixou-a sem ar. Literalmente. Ao fim de 1 hora lá estava a bichana de língua de fora, expojada no chão e com olhos atentos no brinquedo (e o nosso braço dorido). Mas desistir nunca! Mesmo de rastos lá ia a bola de pêlo rastejando (lateralmente), esticando a patinha e a unháca na tentativa de agarrar a maldita fita. Ah!</i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
Get ready!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
Located in the Cima-corgo, in the heart of the Douro Valley, in Quinta do Seixo lies the House of Sandeman, one of the oldest wine brands, founded in 1800 by a Scottish (oddly enough). The Sandeman guide us through some of the key places and processes to the creation and evolution of the wine, finishing with a wine tasting in a refined room with a privileged view of the spectacular hills and Douro.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
Heads up: The house is at the top of the hill and although the road is wide it's an unpaved road, so it may be harder for people with vertigo. It was definitely hard for my mother! For a moment I honestly thought she was going to faint or have a panic attack. But as a great woman that she is, she managed to get us to the house safe and sound, although 10 minutes late.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Preparem-se! </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Localizado no Cima-Corgo, no coração das colinas do Douro, na Quinta do Seixo está a Casa Sandeman, uma das mais velhas marcas de vinho, fundada nos inícios de 1800 por um escocês (curiosamente). A Sandeman guia-nos por alguns dos lugares e processos chave para a criação e evolução do vinho, terminando com uma prova de vinhos numa sala requintada e com uma vista privilegiada sobre as espectaculares colinas e Douro. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Atenção que a casa fica mesmo no cimo da colina e o caminho embora largo é a terra batida e a subir. Pelo que pode custar mais às pessoas com vertigens. À minha mãe sem dúvida que custou! Por momentos pensei que ela fosse desmaiar ou mesmo ter um ataque de pânico. Mas, como grande mulher que é, conseguiu levar-nos são e salvos à casa, embora com 10 minutos de atraso.</i></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">I confess I was looking forward to learn more about the history of the oh so famous Port wine and to see the magnificent views, not so much to prove the wines but when I did tasted it I was blown away. I was not expecting it to be so different from those we buy in supermarkets or drink occasionally, but oh my god, they are so good. </span><br />
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">A Sandeman's Port is not just an appetizer or an accompaniment for the meal but a real experience to be appreciated. We experienced a red wine (ruby) and a one white. Ruby, called so because of its reddish color, is an intense and powerful wine with rich plum and berry notes. I learned that a ruby should be savored with creamy cheeses, chocolaty desserts or fruit pie. But I'll take it solo any day! The white wine made from white grapes had a very attractive flavor and aroma with tropical fruits, citrus fruits and honey. A real blast of flavor. Fabulous!</span><br />
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Confesso que fui mais pela vontade de conhecer melhor a história do tão afamado vinho do Porto e pelas vistas magnificas e não tanto para provar o vinho pelo que quando provei fiquei encantada. Não estava à espera que fosse tão diferente daqueles que compramos nos supermercados ou bebemos de vez em quando, mas meu deus, são tão bons. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Um Porto da Casa Sandeman não é apenas uma aperitivo ou um acompanhamento da refeição mas uma verdadeira experiência a ser apreciada. </i><i style="line-height: 1.8em;">Nós experimentámos um vinho vermelho (ruby) e outro branco. <span style="line-height: 1.8em;">Ruby, assim chamado devido à sua cor avermelhada, é um vinho intenso e poderoso rico em ameixa e com notas de bagas. Fiquei a saber que um ruby deve ser saboreado com queijos cremosos, sobremesas achocolatadas ou torta de frutas. O branco, produzido a partir de uvas brancas, era muito atrativo com sabor e aroma de frutos tropicais, citrinos e mel. Uma verdadeira explosão de sabor. Fabulosos!</span></i></div>

<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">Beautiful, Wonderful! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">In the midst of all this, when we did look at the clock found it was already time for lunch. We asked our guide if she knew / recommended a local restaurant where we could eat minimally well and so after crossing the Roman bridge over the river Pinhão we found the restaurant <i>Ponte Romana</i> (Roman bridge; Rua Santo António 2, 5085-243 Pinhão) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">The restaurant offers good regional food at affordable prices (hint: ask for the dishes of the day). Even the potatoes tasted better than the ones we eat at home, so unfair! The staff was very friendly and attentive, and it had a beautiful view of the river. From what I understand it is considered the best restaurant of Pinhão..</span></div>

<i>No meio disto tudo, quando olhámos para o relógio já era hora de almoço. Perguntámos à nossa guia se conhecia / recomendava algum restaurante onde se pudesse comer minimamente bem e assim depois de atravessar a ponte romana sobre o rio do Pinhão encontrámos o restaurante ponte romana (Rua Santo António 2,5085-243 Pinhão) </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>O restaurante oferece boa comida regional e a preços acessiveis (dica: peçam pratos do dia). Até as batatas sabiam melhor do que as daqui, acho injusto pah. Muito simpáticos e atenciosos, e com uma vista linda para o rio que passa mesmo ao lado. Pelo que percebi é mesmo tido como o melhor restaurante do Pinhão.</i></div>

Today I invite you to experience one of my beloved places of Sintra. A palace and gardens where mystery and controversy emerge around the corner. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 1.8em;">A place with unique history and architecture, which celebrate the history and myths of Portugal, our religious traditions which can be pre-Christian (pagan) or spiritual and initiatory traditions concerning fraternities that arose from the Renaissance (Rosicrucian and Freemasonry). </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
We accepted the invitation of the <i>Casa do Fauno</i> for an educational and relaxed trip and thanks to Dr. José Manuel Anes, our enthralling tour guide, we experienced the most completed and superb tour ever.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Hoje convido-vos a viverem um dos meus lugares predilectos da vila de Sintra. Uma quinta com uma história e arquitectura ímpares, que celebram a história e os mitos de Portugal, as nossas tradições religiosas quer pré-cristãs (paganismo) quer tradições espirituais e iniciáticas referentes a fraternidades que se criaram a partir do Renascimento (Rosa Cruz e Maçonaria). </i><i style="line-height: 1.8em;">Um palácio e jardins em que o mistério e a polémica surgem ao virar da esquina.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>Aceitámos o convite da Casa do Fauno para uma tarde educativa e descontraída e por 4 horas deliciamo-nos com uma visita guiada soberba e do mais completa que há graças ao Dr. José Manuel Anes. </i><i> </i></div>

<span style="line-height: 1.8em;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 1.8em;">What's so special about the place? </span><br />
<span style="line-height: 1.8em;">Quinta da Regaleira unifies various religious and spiritual traditions, thanks to the combination of </span><span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">several</span><span style="line-height: 1.8em;"> religious and spiritual symbols, be it numbers, journeys, saints etc.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 1.8em;">For example the gardens. Like the cosmos, there is heaven and hell, and hell is represented by the downhill to the initiation well and the course through the elements (tunnel and lake) that give exit to the "light of day", for the Light. And yes the visitor does pass through there! A clear reference to the descent into hell of Dante's Divine Comedy, but also a typical and universal architectural reference to the Death and Resurrection initiation present in various religious and spiritual traditions. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
<i>O que há de tão especial na Quinta da Regaleira?</i></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="line-height: 1.8em;">A Quinta unifica as diversas tradições religiosas e espirituais</i><span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;"><i> graças à combinação de vários símbolos religiosos e espirituais, quer sejam números, viagens, santos etc</i></span><br />
<div style="line-height: 1.8em;">
<i>Por exemplo os jardins. Tal como o cosmo, existe o paraíso e o inferno, sendo que o inferno está representado pela descida ao poço iniciático e o percurso labiríntico pelos Elementos (túnel e lago) que dão saída para a "luz do dia", para a Luz, referindo-se particularmente à descida de Dante aos Infernos da Divina Comédia, mas sendo ao mesmo tempo uma referência universal e arquitectónica típica da Morte e Ressurreição iniciáticas, presentes nas diversas tradições religiosas e espirituais. </i><br />

Such a special place! Magical, mysterious and so beautiful. Sintra, for me, is irretrievably linked to the Quinta da Regaleira. The thought and effort put in the place, not just because it "would look good" but due mainly to it's meaning and importance, does it for me. Loved the afternoon and recommend it to everyone! But then again I love Sintra as I've shown <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2013/05/glimpses-of-sintra.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">here</span></a>, <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2011/10/drinking-cup-of-coffee-in-sintra.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">here</span></a> and <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2013/05/quinta-do-pisao-sintra.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">here</span></a>.</div>

<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">So beautiful! Clean, thin and very clear sand. Clear water, with mussel nurseries. The lagoon is the elected place for bass fishing and windsurfing. The path to the lagoon itself is wonderful. Lush meadows, fields with sunflowers and even a small lake. The lagoon is separated from the sea by a beach that is open every year around Easter by human hand resulting in what you see in the photos. It is a beach whose beauty rivals the beaches nearby, the <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2013/02/fonte-da-telhacosta-da-caparica.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">Fonte da Telha</span></a> and Meco.</span></div>

<i>Tão bonita!! Areal limpo, fino e muito claro. Água límpida, com viveiros de mexilhão. <span style="line-height: 1.8em;">A lagoa é o local de eleição para a pesca de robalo e para a prática de windsurf. </span><span style="line-height: 1.8em;">O próprio caminho até à lagoa é maravilhoso. Prados verdejantes, alguns campos com girassóis e até um pequeno lago. A lagoa está separada do mar por uma praia que é aberta todos </span>os anos por altura da pascoa pela mão humana resultando no que se vê nas fotos. É uma praia cuja beleza rivaliza com as praias vizinhas, a <a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2013/02/fonte-da-telhacosta-da-caparica.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">Fonte da Telha</span></a> e a do Meco.</i></div>

<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">The garden is a tribute to the Giant Buddhas of Bamyan, center of Afghanistan, destroyed in 2001, by the fundamentalist Taliban government (with television broadcast and all). </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">In an area of 35 hectares you can find Pagodas, Buddhas and 700 terracotta statues: original copies originated from China and hand painted (the torture it must have been to pass through Customs gosh!). </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">There is also a train that does a small part of the route. While offering some information and a more comfortable visit is preferable to walk calmly, savoring the fresh air, following our instincts and discover such a beautiful place!</span></div>

Adore it!! It's just so charming. Everything revolves around the sea. Surfing to be more exactly. Everywhere you look you see kids, teens and adults walking with their surfer board in or out of the ocean looking happy as ever.
It's a rustic and beautiful place to visit. Add to the view, the salty smell and the warm wind and you got a ticket for a perfect summer day. A perfect lazy, relaxed summer day. Have a good weekend!</div>

<i><span style="line-height: 1.8em;">Adoro!! Simplesmente encantador. Tudo gira em turno do mar. Do surf para ser mais exacta. Por onde quer que se olhe só se vê crianças, adolescentes e adultos com as suas respectivas pranchas de surf a ir ou a vir do mar com o maior ar de felicidade de sempre. Baleal é um local rústico e lindo para se visitar. </span><span style="line-height: 28.799999237060547px;">Acrescenta</span><span style="line-height: 1.8em;">-se à bela vista, o cheiro a mar salgado e o vento quente e tem-se um bilhete para um perfeito dia de verão.

We went out in a hot, hot summer day in the hopes of finding a fresh, shaded from the sun and a beautiful place.

There's lounger, umbrella to covers us from the hot sun which initially does not fly away and of course we can go to the water and swim without fearing the waves.<br />
It's the 3nd year I go to the oceanic pool in Oeiras. It's quite nice, the price is not too bad, but still you can't go every day, but 2-3 times during the summer is perfectly doable (if inquired about being less than 16 years, just say "yeah sure" aha). Their small bar is to be avoided!!3,75<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">€</span><span style="line-height: 1.8em;"> for a cheese and ham croissant is outrageous!</span><br />

<span style="line-height: 1.8em;">Tia Alice or aunt Alice is the name for a very well known restaurant in Negrais (see </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/leitoestiaalice" style="line-height: 1.8em;" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">here</span></a><span style="line-height: 1.8em;">). A family restaurant known mostly for it's roasted pig (at least to me). We've been there </span><a href="http://peacelovelotsofun.blogspot.pt/2013/03/are-you-up-to-some-piglet.html" style="line-height: 1.8em;" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">last year</span></a><span style="line-height: 1.8em;"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;"> </span>and we loved it so much so we came back ;) It isn't cheap but it's a birthday celebration long overdue. And you know how serious I take b-day celebrations!</span></div>

<i>Tia Alice é o nome de um restaurante bem conhecido em Negrais (ver <a href="https://www.facebook.com/leitoestiaalice" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">aqui</span></a>). Um restaurante familiar conhecido essencialmente pelo seu leitão assado na lenha (pelo menos para mim é).

Among all the lovely decoration were 2 old photos of the founders taken 50 years ago. And Guess who we happened to see that day siting next to us? </div>

<i>No meio de toda a encantadora decoração estavam 2 fotografias dos fundadores do restaurante tiradas à 50 anos atrás. E adivinhem quem estava na mesa ao lado?</i></div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
The same couple from those photos. Both were beyond friendly (even let me get some photos and all). We chatted, exchange stories and old memories.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
It made me wonder. Where will I be or how will I be in 50 years, hell in 5 years from now. Specially now since I'm graduating this year and feeling all anxious with what will I do, where will I be and all.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">
Still, along with a satisfied stomach I also left with a warmer heart. So wonderful to see they're real and still together, a true happy ending as it should always be.</div>

Have a good week! Beijinhos**<br />

<i>O mesmo casal das fotos tiradas à 50 anos atrás. Ambos amigáveis, muito sompáticos (até me deixaram tirar fotos e tudo). Nós conversámos, trocámos histórias e velhas memórias de tempos antigos. </i><i style="line-height: 1.8em;">Fez-me questionar. Aonde estarei ou como estarei daqui a 50 anos, ou somente daqui a 5 anos. Especialmente agora que estou prestes a obter a minha licenciatura.</i></div>
<i style="line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;">Assim e juntamente com o meu estômago reconfortado sai de lá com o meu coração apaziguado. Foi fantástico conhecê-los e saber que são reais e que ainda estão juntos. Um verdadeiro final feliz como devia ser sempre.</i><br />

<i>Boa Semana! Beijinhos*</i><br />

Hello Hello!<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since it's my last year as a student, I wanted to get the most of it, by going to the most concerts possible ( That I could afford). Bottom line during this year I've been to more concerts than my last 10 years together. And I'm not done yet ;p</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So what the heck, I spent 60 euros on a ticket to Rock In Rio, mainly to see Justin Timberlake on his 1st show in Portugal. Me and 80 000 of others apparently.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Justin Timberlake</b> gave one of the most complete shows ever, playing songs from every single album. And we cheered, clapped, screamed, sang along with him in songs like "Senorita", "Cry me a River", "Until the end of times", "What goes around comes around", "Mirrors" etc. AMAZING!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before him, for about 1h30m on stage was the very talented <b>Jessie J</b>. Her proximity with the fans became more and more visible over the show: National scarf around her neck, fans crying/thrilled when she approached them, choirs to accompany the "Laserlight", "Pricetag" and "Domino". Dancing, so much dancing. "I've never seen an audience so involved in a concert like this, from the front to the back,"she said. She's amazing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before Jessie J, Mac Miller appeared on stage, also his first time performing in Portugal, with a crazy beat. The first performance on the world stage was the portuguese artist João Pedro Pais with 1 surprise guest, also portuguese, Jorge Palma .</div>
<br />
<i>Olá olá!</i><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Já que é meu último ano como estudante, quero aproveitar ao máximo, resolvendo ir ao maior nº de shows possíveis (e que eu posso pagar). Resumindo, durante este ano fui a mais concertos do que os meus últimos 10 anos juntos ;p</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Sem qualquer preocupação eu gastei 60 € num bilhete para o Rock in Rio, principalmente para ver Justin Timberlake no seu primeiro concerto em Portugal. Não só eu mas como outras 80 000 pessoas.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Justin Timberlake deu um dos concertos mais completos de sempre, tocando várias músicas de cada álbum. E nós batemos palmas, gritámos, cantámos com ele canções como "Senorita", "Cry Me a River", "Until the end of times", </i><span style="text-align: justify;"><i>"What goes around comes around", "Mirrors", etc...</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Antes dele, durante 1h30m actuou a talentosa Jessie J. A sua proximidade com os fãs tornou-se bem visível ao longo do concerto: cachecol nacional à volta do pescoço, fãs a chorar quando ela se aproximou, coros a acompanhar a "Laserlight", " Pricetag "e" Domino". E dança, muita dança. "Eu nunca vi um público tão envolvido como este, da plateia da frente para a de trás", disse ela. Ela é espectacular. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i> Antes de Jessie J, no Placo Mundo actuaram Mac Miller, outro artista pela 1ª vez em Portugal, com uma batida louca e os artistas portugueses João Pedro Pais, Jorge Palma,.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hi people! Hope your week went well! Me, I'm just glad it's over. Last post about Barcelona and what better way to finish than Park Guell?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What is park Guell after all? It was supposed to be a garden type city but ended up as a public park booming with imagination and symbolism. To me it seems like a popular children's wonderland.<br />
My personal favorites were:<br />
<span style="text-align: start;">The<b> undulating bench</b> is spectacular, the view you get from up there is amazing, and it's the best place to take some gorgeous family photos.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: start;">In the middle of the stairway lies the famous <b>dragon</b> </span>made entirely from pieces of pottery.This sculpture became the most popular symbol of the work of Gaudi and the city of Barcelona.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Olá gente! Espero que a vossa semana tenha corrido bem! Eu estou contente por ter chegado ao fim. </i><i>Último post sobre Barcelona e que melhor tema do que Park Guell?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>O que é afinal o parque Guell? Foi construido para ser uma cidade jardim, mas acabou como um parque público cheio de imaginação e simbolismo. Para mim parece-se com o país das maravilhas. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Os meus locais favoritos foram: </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>O<b> banco ondulante</b> é espetacular, com uma vista para a cidade de Barcelona incrível e é o melhor lugar para tirar algumas fotos de família para a prosperidade. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>No meio da escadaria encontra-se o famoso <b>dragão</b> inteiramente feito de peças de cerâmica. A escultura acabou por tornar-se no símbolo mais popular da obra de Gaudi e da cidade de Barcelona.</i></div>

<i>Las Ramblas</i> who never heard of it?<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A 1,2 km long central street in Barcelona, popular among tourists and locals alike, full with cafés and souvenir kiosks and even a market<i> La Boqueria</i>. Perfect to walk around, do a little shopping and eat some ice cream. It's so captivating.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And it's really easy to get there, either throught the<i> Bairri Gótic</i> or <i>Pl. Catalunya</i>. And it's surrounded by other streets equally full with curious shops.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Las Ramblas, quem nunca ouviu falar?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>É bastante fácil de lá chegar, quer seja pelo Bairri Gótic ou através da Pl.Catalunya. E é rodeado de várias outras ruas, igualmente cheias de lojas diferentes, curiosas que valem bem a pena.</i></div>

A typical beverage called <i>Sangria</i> made of red wine, chopped fruit, sugar and a bit of brandy. Please when visiting Spain or Portugal try it out! And the real deal, recently made Tiramisú! And I don't usually like tiramisú but oh my socks this one was the best one ever!<br />

Hi people, how are you?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once again, when visiting abroad I always try to book a guided tour with entrances included and pass the line ;) Gotta make the most out of so little time. I advice you, once on location, try going to the official tourist information points.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Gaudi absolutely adored nature and above all the idea of nature: curvy, no straight lines, dimension, colors, it's dynamic forever changing. So there's exactly what you'll see in his work, nature.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<i>Olá gente jeitosa, como estão?</i><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Mais uma vez, sempre que vou de viagem tento sempre marcar com antecedência visitas guiadas, de preferência já com os bilhetes de entrada incluidos, e que passem a fila ;) Há que aproveitar ao máximo tão pouco tempo. Eu aconselho que em Barcelona se desloquem até ao ponto oficial de informação touristica, aonde encontram equipas de tourismo acreditadas evitando-se enganos e angustias.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Gaudi adorava a Natureza e acima de tudo a ideia e conceção da natureza: linhas curvas, nada de linhas rectas, dimensão, cores e a sua constante dinâminca. E isso é exactamente o que vão ver.</i></div>

So Casa Batló, the house of yawns. It looks like it just came out of a fictional story right?To me it's a giant curtain in movement. I swear I can see those skulks opening up like they're talking to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The entire facade is covered with colored mosaics and ceramic discs and the walls are curvy. The balconies are made of cast iron rails, painted ivory and gold, resembling carnival masks or even skulls.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Casa Batló, casa dos bocejos. Não parece saida de uma história de ficção? Como uma cortina gigante em movimento. Quase que consigo ver os crânios a abrir como se fossem falar comigo. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Toda a fachada está coberta com mosaicos coloridos e discos de cerâmica e as paredes são curvas. As varandas são feitas de ferro fundido, pintado de cor marfim e ouro, assemelhando-se máscaras de carnaval ou mesmo crânios.</i></div>

Walls are covered in smooth and relief tiles that gradually increases in intensity from whites, pearl greys and sky blues on the lower floors to navy blue and cobalt on the higher ones.

Casa Batló is topped by a small cylindrical tower that culminates in a four-armed cross and an undulating roof covered on the side facing the street with colored ceramic pieces of electric blue that form scales. The roof is often compared to the dragon slained by St.George. As you can see the side not facing the street, it's covered with colored ceramic pieces of differing tones of orange and dark red, symbolizing the dead of the dragon. The imagination is unreal!</div>

A temple. Unfinished temple that should be done around 2020-2030. It's built with donated money and from the tours and visits to the monument. It looks mudy at first glance right? But once you get close, the detail is crazy!It's a book really.</div>

And then you enter the white forest. The columns are impressive, and all those vitrines give a sense of quiet, spiritual illumination, a true mood for prayer and meditation. Gaudi was a genius.<br />

Oh yes, I know, I know. Being away doesn't begin to describe how long I've been away from the blog world. What can I say? The last year at college is a b****: internships and internships reports (plus crazy boss)... I can barely wait until it's all over!</div>
Still there's some time available to visit Barcelona!<br />
A city that I confess wasn't in my list "of cities to visit" but it end up being surprisingly positive, LOVED it.<br />
Full of life, history, culture, friendly people, good weather, easy to move around and blessed with spectacular weather, no wind only sun and heat.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Sim, eu sei. Andar ausente não consegue descrever o tempo que fora do blog.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>O que posso dizer? Último ano de faculdade é tramado: estágios e relatórios de estágio (aturar chefes doidas)...Mal posso esperar que acabe! Mas está quase ;)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Ainda assim no meio da confusão, houve um tempinho para ir até Barcelona!</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Uma cidade que confesso não constar da minha lista "das cidades a visitar" mas que me surpreendeu pela positiva, simplesmente ADOREI.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Cheia de vida, história, cultura, gente simpática, bom tempo, fácil de movimentar e abençoada com um tempo espectacular, sem vento só sol e calor.</i></div>

While walking around, getting familiar with the city, around the corner of <i>Via Laietana</i> we saw a gorgeous building with a very modernist syle and later found it was a concert hall!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And that was when we decided we had to see a concert! And we did, that same night we went back to see an opera and flamenco mix. Just amazing! A most do experience when in Barcelona!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
