My Vacation in Milan
Well, general impression? It was GREAT both: infinite busy emperor style city (I was only there, the sessions of the ritrit finished too late to make tourist trips) and the wonderful places round Lugano. Because I lived till 35 in the cities, their frenetic life is my nature. But the Nature and much-much water attracts me irresistible and I feel in Paradise when I visit that place.
So, I invite you to visit my new blog and enjoy photos I made there.

The Roman Ship Museum
This museum (Via Diana, 15, Nemi, Tel/Fax 06 9398040) is open from 9:00 till 18:00
Naval archeology had different successes in the last time in Italy. They found very rare ships not far from Venice, I know. I'll write about it, if I find more information about it.

The Viking Ship Museum in Oslo
This show remembered me an interesting museum that I would like to visit once: The Viking Ship Museum in Oslo. Why I think it has to be so interesting? I was in the historical museums in Finland where there are not only things (original or not) that are signs of the life in the past. What I liked much, there were entire scenes presented in that museums. Such presentations are very useful to make the history something "alive" for us.
In Oslo you can see the real ships of the vikings that were brave sailors, traiders, raiders and colonists. You surely know that they had techniques that are not clear for modern scientists.
By the way, in the BBC's Ancient history in-depth/Vikings there is very interesting collection of the articles about Vikings and everything about them.

Some thoughts about things every traveller has to know before he/she leaves the house
This morning I found an interesting article about the 28 things a journalist says would be very happy to know before he began to travel. If they are good for a journalist, I said, they can be good for me too. Here I want to write some words to confirm his observations.
When I go in an other place I normally take real money with me and try to organize everything possible in advance, in internet. In the way that I have to pay only the absolutely neccessary things at the place.
This story began for me with easy-jet flight, when they did not explain the rules to me, and when they did not allow me to enter the airplane because I had not respect those rules. I remained in the street without money because I had only my credit card. And forgot the access number of that card. It was sad. I, customary, cryed, tryed to explain the situation to the stuff, but nobody wanted to listen to me. So, now I know, I have to have enough money to reach my home, if it's necessary.
The other thought I read today was about the police. The author says, you have not think they are your friends because there are many cases when the policemen sell their services to the best bidders.
I never had such situations. At contrary, I always received help from police when I needed it. But I know it is not "normal" situation. It happend to me because I had not serious problems. The persons that had them told me, the policemen were really very bad with them. They did not want to help and created much more obstacles as you had before.
And the last is the thought about the taxies. I know different stories about girls that took the first car they could find -and you know there are many drivers in any airport that meet crowds of the passengers. The same story they tell about the airport in Buenos Aires, for example. Such trips are not health even for the men.
So, I think, going in an other country and in an other place has to learn us responsability. All over the world there are persns that look for "stupids". And think, all the tourists ARE stupid.

The Panama Dream Vacation
Chose one of the best Panama hotels for her stay there, my friend began to explore this paradise for tourists. Since there are different landscapes -high mountains and deep valleys, it's possible to meet great variety of exotic birds and animals
there. Special tours allow everybody who likes the nature to enjoy bird watching and wild life. You surely can understand the delight of my friend, when she visited than a little archipelago where known pirates of the XVII century had their base. She did not find the treasures of tose pirates but was in ecstasies to touch the soil related to their history (as for me, to the well known movies).
The most interesting shopping, she said, was near the Panama Canal. It's because there is all the world got together. There were museums and historical buildings to visit too, but she preferred to make tours in the national parks and to enjoy sun and water on the beaches. It could sound strange but there are different national parks in Panama and in one of them the tourists can participate at the life of the Indians. There is even a dormant volcano in one of the parks and it is Panamas highest peak.
Oh, those white sandy beaches, a sweet dream of every citizen of the Europe! Imagine that the water is 24°C all the year round there! Unfortunately my friend had not so many days of vacation, wanted to visit everything possible and could enjoy beaches only some times. At the end of her vacation she was so fortunate to participate on one of the folk festivals that take place some times a year. The vacation in Panama was fantastic.

Argentinian Recipe
This time I show you one of the possibilities to cook it. The photos took a friend of my husband. I think it's very clear what they used to cook. I do it more or less the same way. What is interesting for me -I've never seen such a pan for fire.

Outdoors As Essential Part Of Any Weight Loss Plan
An other article continues the theme with observation that Exercise are essential ingredient in any weight loss plan. We do not want understand this simple thing -we need to have harmonious relationships with nature to have good health and as consequence normal weight. The good God did not create computers and cities when He gave birth to this world. And this is the main reason why we need nature. It's our home, and we have to stay in touch with it. Sometimes our "stay in touch" means "destroy". It's enough to see the places where we had picnics. I think, we have to do everything possible to change our habits to live this world alive to our children and that our children do not destroy it too.
