Z punktu widzenia żony cz.2






English Version

In everyone’s life, there are some crucial moments, you might even say - milestones. I remember in January 2008, I wrote on a blog that small changes are coming up. I was thinking about moving to a new apartment. But this time, I can honestly say, that August
2010 brought big changes. A wedding was perfectly described by my brother, (unfortunately in polish) On that special day you really feel the support from your family and friends. Especially, when there are a lot of storm clouds on the sky. Some people say that rain on Your wedding day is because of all the girls, who are crying for the groom.
Luckily it had stopped raining, just before the wedding ceremony. It was a good sign,

Q: Where the Groom should take his newly wedded wife?
A: To the end of the world!
Yes! Or just to the end of Europe, but for the Portuguese Capo da Roca was the end of the world in times, when they were just to about discover new lands.
Our adventure began in the heart of the country - Lisbon. The first day we tasted the local specialties. Unfortunately we did not know, that the appetizer does not go with Your meal, and that the roll with a slice of ham will cost us 15 Euros. It turned out, that our hotel was in the center of everything, and it was very easy to discover all the flavor of Lisbon. During the day we were sightseeing and in the evening we were visiting Bairo Alto neighborhood, where all the parties are going on. My favorite thing in
Second best was a beautiful castle and a star of Aquarium – wonderful Otter.
I also liked ... Bethlehem. Those who thought they missed the lessons of religion, in which Jesus was born in Portugal, calm down, one of the districts of Lisbon is called Belem, which means Bethlehem. The Jeronimos Monastery, which we visited first, was splendid. Then we’ve seen the tower Torre de Belem - that guard the port of Lisbon. It was built by Manuel I Happy. Less happy were those, who were sent to it, at the time it began to be a prison.
As I have written before, we were also in the aquarium. Overall, my favorite animal has always been a penguin (at work I have the Linux penguin as my wallpaper on my computer), but this time the otter won with all other creatures. No one was able to compete with it, even the stingray, which could buried in the sand. I have not seen any other creature, that would like to pose to photos, like this otter.

One of the high spots of the stay in Lisbon was “Azulejos Museum” (the name "Museum of the Tile" is too trivial.) Portuguese for centuries were putting the tiles everywhere, so the hole country is full of Azulejos. The museum have the piece of the best work.
We spent five fantastic days exploring, tasting and partying in Lisbon.

When we reached Porto, we had a glass of... Porto there. For us, staying in the city of bridges and the wine was quite short, but we managed to visit the tower, where you could admire the city skyline and to walk across the river at night to make a brilliant picture of the city (Taken by Bartek). In the morning, we went to the south of

Z punktu widzenia żony cz.1


Generalnie oprócz radości związanej z weselem, para młoda ma za sobą wiele pracy, po której należy odpocząć, żeby się nie pozabijać na nowej drodze życia. I tak płynnie przechodzimy do... podróży poślubnej.
Q: Gdzie Pan Młody powinien zabrać swoją świeżo poślubioną małżonkę?
A: Na koniec świata!
Bingo! Konkretnie koniec Europy, ale dla Portugalczyków przylądek Capo da Roca był końcem świata, gdy wyruszali na swoje podboje. Janek już raczej na żadne podboje nie wyruszy, ale

Nasza portugalska przygoda rozpoczęła się w sercu kraju - Lizbonie. Pierwszego dnia wyruszyliśmy na miasto poznać jego urok i zakosztować miejscowych specjałów. Wtedy jeszcze nie wiedzieliśmy, że przystawki nie są za darmo, i że za bułkę z plasterkiem szynki zapłacimy 15 euro. Okazało się, że mieszkamy w centrum wszystkiego i bardzo łatwo jest odkryć wszystkie lizbońskie smaczki. W ciągu dnia robiliśmy piesze wycieczki, a wieczorem odwiedzaliśmy dzielnicę Bairo Alto, gdzie na wąskich uliczkach imprezuje stolica. Najbardziej w Lizbonie podobał mi się, klasztor, z którego po wielkim trzęsieniu ziemi zostały wysokie ściany. Można usiąść między murami i spojrzeć w błękitne niebo. Niezwykłe wrażenie. Second best to przepiękny zamek i gwiazdeczka oceanarium w Lizbonie- showmeńska Wydra.
To tyle na dziś, bo późno jakoś się zrobiło.
W kolejnej odsłonie trochę więcej o atrakcjach Lizbony, jak smakuje Porto w Porto i dlaczego pali się woskowe stopy w Fatimie...
