Red Dress Long Sleeve




Saturday, November 17, 2007

I've never been to Pavia and the opportunity presents itself today! It 's a meeting with friends who had not seen for a long time and finally we can embrace. So in a day a bit 'cold, but sunny reach Pavia. The visit to the Certosa is very nice, the outside world, hidden by scaffolding for restoration, does not prepare the elegance of marble and stained glass windows that can be admired inside the church. There is a guide to Monaco Benedictine (probably will guide the Carthusian monasteries of St. Benedict!) that illustrates the life of the benefactors who contributed to the construction of the monastery, takes us to the rooms where the monks lived and we realized that they were not arranged so bad, everyone had a small garden.
After a hot tea to go strolling downtown, where I see the famous towers, the cathedral, the Roman bridge (too bad that the original bridge from the Roman era have it demolished after the war!), The university, castle. The area is mostly dedicated to pedestrians and is a pleasure to stroll, stopping to buy chocolate, yes, because there are now a number of stalls selling their products all made of chocolate (evviva!)
The evening ends at the table in front of a delicious dish of rice with porcini mushrooms, after all, what else could I ordered Pavia?
The day is over, return home with the best memory: the sympathy and affection, the joy of being with Christ, Anto, Mark, and Mark Martin.

PAVIA-day North Cape North Cape ventiquatto


Wednesday, August 8

The journey is almost over. For the last time I remove the tent, wiping out for good, ready for storage. I expect a long descent to the south, probably I plan on sleeping in a lay-by near Nuremberg Meanwhile I'm enjoying the last few kilometers of Denmark, where Rodby until I board the last ferry on this route. The journey takes two hours, and everything is organized on the ferry to spend as much as possible in this short period of time: 2 Duty Free, 2 restaurants, 3 bars and a lot of slot machines, you can pay with any currency in the world!

I savor these two hours of rest with pleasure, as for the rest of stopping time will have to drive as little as possible: the thought of coming home is now dominant. Just landed in Puttgarden, Germany, are lined up in a long line of cars that goes to the highway, do petrol (€'s remit in the portfolio) Going back and crossed the street three weeks ago. The weather was rainy and there's enough traffic, so that a few hundred kilometers from Nuremberg I am stopped on the highway in a big traffic jam due to an accident. I am standing still walking among the cars, when a German motorist from the car to make four chat. With the little German I remember (not even 10 words!) I say I do not speak German, but he did not stop at this insignificant detail and starts talking as if nothing had happened. It is at this point that a great thing happens: I understand what 'it says! Evidently the German learned twenty-five years before and never used is left on standby somewhere and now re-emerges. The traffic jam is extended and then, since I'm 10 in the evening, I lie in my car and I take a nap, interrupted thirty minutes later by the sound of engines being turned back on: in every way! The rest I sleep longer than expected, why not feel any fatigue, then I decide to reach at least Monaco of Bavaria. Monaco reached, a sign tells me that there are less than 500 km to Italy now for me is a 500 km walk, so I stopped a moment to eat and to drink tea and torrential rain, the excess of momentum Austria and two in the morning across the Italian border Brenner. At that time the highway is deserted, the kilometers pass without difficulty and perfect shape and cute as a cricket at four and three-quarters of the morning the car park below the house. The adventure is over, are ready for the next.

Battery Operated Blanket For Camping

Tuesday, August 7

Somebody has cleaned the bathrooms, thank goodness. So I'm heartened to catch the bus that takes me 20 minutes to downtown, I decided to follow the path recommended by the tourist office paper, which turns out to be excellent, it also passes along quiet roads most frequented by tourists and locals . Touch all the most important center, the Strøget City Hall, the Cathedral, the port of Nyhaven, the little mermaid, the circular tower, the royal palace, the Latin Quarter, that is, the university, the Tivoli. And museums? In fact there would be many museums to see (by eliminating the wax museum, the Guinness Book of Records, of the strangest things in the world) but time is short.


And now girls skip this part and resume reading later.


I told you not to read!


Dear Copenhagen is the place where men are the most beautiful women in the world!

It 's impossible not to notice them walking the streets, but a visit to the gardens of the royal palace in a beautiful sunny day, allows you to enjoy the fascinating spectacle of beautiful women of all ages, intent on taking the sun, picnic, chat, play games with their children and husbands.

Probably there are also men beautiful, but I was distracted because I have not noticed very much!

The truth is that Copenhagen is wonderful with the sun, with its inhabitants going up and down the streets with bicycles which is very often attacked a truck where they take place younger children, it is normal to see families with two or three children. However, when walking is as impressive as they are respectful of traffic lights, nearly all also equipped with audible

After visiting this beautiful city, I take the bus and go to sleep.

6 Week Old Baby With Phlegm

-day North Cape-day twenty-two


Monday, August 6

Tappone transfer between Stockholm and Copenhagen, 600 km to a maximum of 110 per hour. The southern Sweden is different view from Sweden so far, even the houses are less wooden and more and more bricks. The mountains are gone, although there are lakes and creeks, among many fields, many pastures and some forest. There is a lot of breeding cows, sheep and horses. The highway is much improved, no longer stops when crossing the city, but there are junctions. In the end I understood why there are fences on either side of the road, is to prevent animals from crossing the wild, but what happens now and then, since I have seen 2 rates overwhelmed and another large animals that have not been able identify. FTAA two words: although the signs with the profile FTAA is a symbol of all of Scandinavia, I have not seen a single one. I saw reindeer, sheep, deer, horses in the middle of the road, but the moose, at least in summer, they do not see.

arrived in Malmo take the bridge that connects Copenhagen, realizing that half-way becomes a tunnel, and so arrived in Denmark. Following the inevitable signs to the center, at the information office of the city. When I go to park here have also discovered that the crowns, but the automatic tacchimetro also accepts the visa and so I'm safe.

The super organized tourist office gives me the name of two camps, the first discovered that there is, unfortunately, the second yes.

I traveled throughout Scandinavia and one thing is sure: the camp of Copenhagen is ugly, at a campsite Yugoslavian 80's! The bathrooms are the dirtiest I've seen in this part of Europe, where no hot water and hot water was provided, it was over, with the incessant noise of traffic and even a tree. I know that my next trip to Copenhagen will be at the hotel. After a brief wash drives me in my sleeping bag and go to sleep.

Sunday, August 5

Already last night I realized that the mattress did not take more air, but I was too tired to think about it, punctually at 3 was completely deflated, I pretended to nothing and I got up two hours later. The trouble is that while wetting the mattress I could not understand where the loss, patience, the last day I will sleep with the foam mat.

Luckily there is an underground station near the camp and in less than half an hour are in the center without worrying about parking or traffic. In fact, today is Sunday and it is very little traffic, the first stop the tourist office, super organized, but does not give me any more the information I had from the campsite. The tour begins at the royal palace, nothing more than Versailles and Madrid. Many photographs of the royal family (though it looks like the family of the reason for my bank), beautiful wreaths, the apartments have modern style of a dining room 50 years, many portraits of ancestors and an entire area dedicated to the celebrations Thirty Years of the princess heir to the throne, but her sister is prettier.

Stockholm Cathedral, beautiful and imposing church with a beautiful statue of Saint George and the Dragon (apart from the absent expression of the saint) and a special feature that made me immediately sympathetic to the church are celebrated here rites of various denominations.

Fast, unfortunately, around the old town and visit the Nobel Museum, very beautiful, a celebration of culture, fellowship and growth. Looking under the seats at the bar then there are the autographs of several Nobel laureates.

leaving the museum I encounter in the changing of the guard very nice although a little 'lunghini, in the end I started to photograph the soldiers and the traffic warden on horseback.

Time to reach the island of Djurgarden with the classic ferry, stand out from afar the Vasa Museum, an amusement park and pavilion dedicated to Pippi Longstocking. Scrap naturalmenti the last two and within the Vasa, one of the most beautiful shows I've ever seen. The Vasa is the most beautiful ship in the fleet of the Swedish king in 1700, sank on her maiden voyage! Was recovered in 1956 and completely restored in a magnificent way. The museum is the story of the Vasa, Sweden at the time of the Vasa and the recovery of wreckage, with footage and reconstructions, really fascinating.

after the Vasa went to Skansen, an outdoor museum that occupies an entire hill, where I played all the areas in Sweden in mid-nineteenth century, with the residents and the craftsmen at work, and the animals all over Sweden! Another great exposure.

spent the last half hour sitting outside eating a slice of blueberry pie, watching a pretty girl sitting two tables further on, then I head to the metro and go back to camp, where the Italian couple German of my neighbors keep asking me something borrowed and had done the day before. But it is time to go to sleep.

Heaven cold and starting to Helkstrom, described by the leaflets as a tourist town full of charm, happiness, culture and atmosphere. Perhaps for the Swedes. When I get around 11 tourist office have very little material other than in Swedish and the city seems deserted, perhaps because it is August? Maybe because it's Saturday? However, snap some photos of the church, the houses on the canal, the ducks in the pond and then move to Stockholm. The weather was beautiful and put in under a hot sun, too well, arriving in the city, heading to camp in the suburbs, but close to the subway, in a neighborhood where you hear about Arabic and Swedish, in equal measure. Without even knowing it tears the tent next to that of two Italians: I'm just going up to house!

Material List For A Quarter Pipe




Friday, August 3

The road book is marked "visit the historic town of Gammelstad" never heard of it, is very nearly the latest jump. In fact I have never been disappointed with the directions of travel, and so on, to visit Gammelstad!

discovered that it is a city-parish, declared World Heritage by UNESCO. The city-parish are cities that have formed around a church, around 1500, to allow parishioners who lived and worked far from the church, to spend at least Saturday and Sunday together, and attend functions. Of course this also led to business meetings, meetings with friends and dating find a soul mate. The girls were at home sitting at a table near the window, and saw the boys going with a rhyme and asked permission to enter and stay warm. At this ounto she decided whether or not to let the young man. A special feature is still in fashion today, is that the village could only be occupied on weekends.

Arricchitomi culturally and with a clear conscience continue my journey south. Slowly the landscape is changing, in addition to forests now see fields and pasture, with cows and sheep in the meadows and the sea on the left and facilities lifts and jumps to the ski jump to the right, it is likely that the winter is cold MOOLTO!

When I get Sundstrom I stop and go to sleep.

nineteen-day North Cape North Cape North Cape

Thursday, August 2

Quiet night, the awakening is the sky completely covered by clouds very high, so no threat of rain. I got to wake up the pace of Norway, are never ready before 10 and now I do 550 km.

The road is typical Finnish straight as an arrow, with ups and downs and trees, trees, trees. Sometimes he sees a lake as reflected in the blue sky that today is especially nice because there are so many puffs of white cotton hung up there. As you descend towards the Arctic Circle, however, the clouds are lower and in a gray and drizzly atmosphere Napapirj arrival, the official residence of Santa Claus. Apart from the enormity of souvenir shops the best thing is the post office, where all the employed are dressed as Santa's helpers. In the end I can not resist and buy a hat to show off then Lapland, on the ski slopes.

continue the journey south, until you cross the border without even stopping and the first thing you need is a huge store in Sweden Ikea. The road has changed little, only larger, with forests and fenced becomes the speed limit of 120 km per hour, perhaps more than you go to the south and perhaps it is natural to run more, boh?.

Arrival then Luleå, young and lively university town technological and here I stop to sleep, savoring the hours of darkness that now I can not wait for nearly 20 days.

Wednesday, August 1, 2007

Awakening in the storm this morning: rain and especially a strong wind that flattened the tent. But now like a man the north, it left me rather indifferent. I folded my things and I went south with the heating on. I greeted the North sea, the seagulls and Norway, which already feel the nostalgia, and through the land of the Sami in Finland are past the dear old euro. The streets are impressive compared to the Finnish Norwegian: the 100 is already the limit and not 90, then they are straight as a runway without hotwheel around the death, with ups and downs, in the midst of forests, so you do not see nothing but trees ( look at the reindeer!).

Inari I come to the shores of a large lake which is much more restless sea I've seen so far, I find the campsite and go to sleep.

Los Hombres De Paco Transmisión

seventeen-day North Cape North Cape


Tuesday, July 31

Travel between North Cape and High winds on a plateau with low vegetation at the beginning, then the tallest trees, but it dried (it will already autumn, I was trying) and then normal green trees that hide a lot of houses, homes, perhaps for the holidays. Continuing north, the trees give way to pastures, and souvenir shops Sami multiply dramatically. A big red warning sign draws the attention of automobilisri, is written in large with lots of exclamation points, closely Norwegian. Fortunately, the drawing of a reindeer I guess something is, in fact incurred after that do not meet reindeer everywhere: the former are superfotografate then you start not refrain.

After I do not know how many bridges, many tunnels and above those tolls arrival, finally, to the North Cape! I enjoy your time by 14, at 2 hours of my arrival, at which time close any premises with the light that continues to increase. In the meantime I went further north to North Cape, in fact, with a walk of five hours round trip, you can reach a cliff that is a first north of North Cape.

After a shower I enjoyed watching the midnight sun windows of the restaurant sipping a beer and eating a slice of strawberry cake.

Disturbed Lead Singer Type Of Peircing

sixteen-day North Cape


Monday, July 30

Tonight episode of extreme cold at 4 am, quickly wiped with a fleece that I had prepared for the purpose, then new morning sun. Released from the camp, distracted by my thoughts, I miss the turnoff for the ferry that I should take when I realize, paper in hand, calculating that the back would take me more time than do the way I expected that the two ferry would be avoided. What is more, so I will be faster, since the ferry times have very dilated. The road follows the contour of a fjord in the usual snow-capped mountains that are reflected, as I pretend not to see them or I would stop every mile to take pictures. About miles, I'll make about 300 today, a walk than usual, because I come to Alta at 16.30 and I can enjoy the museum of stone carvings. (Renna!) In practice, it is a path from the museum that is above the cliff to the beach and back, around an hour and a half of calm walk, stopping to admire the etchings of men who had done 6000 years ago. The day was warm with sunshine, and suddenly, with the sun, begins with a summer storm of large drops. It lasts a moment, but carries a lot of moisture and a lot of mosquitoes. After the museum I jump in populous, but is completely anonymous, with degrees in Construction cube containing department stores. I head to the campsite better than Norway and they pitch a tent.

With a nice warm sun I set off to Tromso, usually stopping to wait for a ferry, and still pass through woods that have now km finally replaced the cropped area. Here the mountains are rounded and have lower odds than 1000 meters, but a lot of snow remains all year to soften the lines. The rest is constant ups and downs trees, meadows, lakes, fjords and rivers. Arrived in Tromsø pitched his tent beside a clear stream, eat and go to visit a semi-deserted city because they are now the 23. Arctic beautiful church, before the bridge into the city and the equally spectacular polar museum, which looks like a giant white domino fell. I take the cable car and go and enjoy the midnight sun watching the city from above. I am a small fox company in search of food.

Saturday, July 28

How nice to wake up late pampered by the warmth of the sun in front of him and have the crystal blue sea still as a lake. I almost do not move now from the campsite. But no, we're going to explore the legendary Lofoten. There are four main islands linked by bridges with a main road and just a closer running roughly parallel one to the north and one to the south. I speak to Å, 130 km from Svolvær, the extreme south of the islands, 100 inhabitants. In fact it is a museum with the houses of fishermen, for drying cod, a small port and a restaurant. Do a tour, take pictures and then go to the restaurant and ordered a vegetarian dish, which for the standard up there is a light meal: 4 slices of bread with 2 pats of butter, a dish of penne with tomato, beans, onions, cream, then a salad with corn and cucumbers seasoned with Caesar. Eventually I would like a bed to sleep and instead I'm going to go ahead and Nordfjord. This is similar to the above, but is nicer in my opinion, there are tourists, it is true, but there is also a normal life, with fishermen, fish stores and convenience store that has preserved a bit 'l 'furniture of the last century. To return to Svolvær change direction, take the secondary, and load three hitchhikers, father, mother, daughter Germans who spend two weeks in Lofoten only with backpacking. Thanks to them I find that to be the Lofoten Islands have to take a plane to Oslo, then a plane to Bodø and then by ferry to Svolvær. Greetings and laughter when we leave and then conclude the day shopping in Svolvær, buying frozen spinach soup to have on hand instead. The last magical evening on the Lofoten step a little wrangling 'with gas and enjoying the enchanted light of the night.

Friday, July 27

Hailed family Brasilera north, with a blue sky without a cloud I come a little 'back to visit Grønligrotta, after a dirt road km raggungo a refuge where of course there is none, since they are nine and the first round starts at 10.

not amount to much as a cave, while the longest known cave in Norway, there is no evidence that has ever been inhabited by men. The interesting thing I learned from the guide: he told me that in winter the road is not accessible for the two feet of snow falling and there is light from noon to 15.

archived without regrets the cave, the division for the North. Dooo few tens of kilometers, the landscape becomes increasingly high mountain, such as above 2000 m, even though they are only 300m above sea level, the trees disappear and meadows are full of white stones and pebbles. Risrorante parking and a report that I have come to the imaginary line of the Arctic circle: from this point on, summer is never dark and you can see only at midnight.

usual photos and then after 200 km arrival for boarding Lofoten.

are now the 21 when I arrive from the sea and the islands do not have much impressed me are just the high gray cliffs that rise from the sea, period.

But when I get to the campsite with a beautiful view of the north, and clear blue sea, green mountains to the small red houses by the water, I feel immersed in a fairy tale. Pitched his tent on the beach and after eating, shooting photos all the time, until I realize it's midnight minus 10 and the light is strong. When he turns twelve ten a.m. light becomes more intense. I go to sleep wrapped in a magical feeling.
