    Igreja Matriz de São Sebastião

    26 de enero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 13 °C

    The Igreja Matriz de São Sebastião is located in the old city center of Ponta Delgada near the Portas da Cidade.

    Its construction dates back to a hermitage dedicated to Saint Sebastian , the city's patron saint, erected after a great plague struck the city.

    The construction of the current temple took place between 1531 and 1547 , having received aid from Kings John III and Sebastian . The magnificent Manueline-style portals that have survived to this day date from this period. The doors on the side facades, in Baroque style , are made of basalt from the island.

    Over the centuries, the building underwent profound transformations as a whole, typical of the Gothic style in Portugal, with Manueline and, later, Baroque details. In the 16th century , the bell tower stood in the northeast corner. In the first half of the 18th century , the temple was the subject of an extensive building campaign.    Leer más

    Cherimoya

    27 de enero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    Do you know Cherimoyas?
    By now I know them well, because in the meantime I have met them many times. I think the shell looks like snakeskin.

    The fruit in the center of the picture is the cherimoya. It is also known as custard apple, cinnamon apple, or sugar apple.

    The fruit is heart-shaped or conical, about ten centimeters long, and has a green, scaly skin which turns brown as it ripens.

    Originally it comes from the Andes Mountains of South America and is now also cultivated in Spain, Portugal, the Acores and the Canary Islands.

    The Taste and Texture of The flesh is white, creamy, and sweet. The flavor is often described as a mixture of pineapple, strawberry, banana, and pear.
    I don't like it so much, because from time to time it is a bit bitter.

    The flesh can be eaten raw by halving the fruit and scooping it out with a spoon. The black seeds are inedible because Cherimoya seeds contain various alkaloids; consuming them leads to nausea and various symptoms of poisoning. The seeds are used as an insecticide, for parasitic skin diseases, and as a strong emetic and laxative.

    So I don't buy them very often but I think it is a really pretty fruit.    Leer más

    Bifanas

    28 de enero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    Bifana (lit. 'small steak') is a classic Portuguese sandwich eaten all across the country.

    According to Taste Atlas, the dish may have first been created in Vendas Novas, but it is served throughout the country.

    The typical ingredients are pork chops, steak, or loin, pounded thin or sliced, simmered with garlic and wine, then sandwiched inside heated bread. There are regional variations which include marinating and grilling or roasting the pork and making the sauce separately and drizzling onto the bun and/or serving with mustard, hot sauce or sauteed onions.

    This dish is typically served at festivals that take place all over the country. It is typically viewed as a cheap, fast and easy meal.[citation needed] It is generally seen as a popular dish; McDonalds serves a version called McBifana.

    In the north of Portugal, the sandwich is usually served using shredded pork and a sauce, while in the south it is a lighter sandwich which uses a pork cutlet and a light marinade.

    The bifana has seen international adaptation in various European and North American cities, often in Portuguese immigrant communities. These adaptations sometimes modify traditional ingredients to cater to local tastes or ingredient availability, while still maintaining the essential characteristics of the original.    Leer más

    That was close

    28 de enero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    Yesterday evening I picked Rainer up from the airport.

    As always, thanks to the departure and arrival information from the airports in Hamburg, Lisbon, and Ponta Delgada, I was well-informed.

    Together with Flightradar, I had everything under observation, including the second plane from Lisbon, which was five minutes behind Rainers.

    I had also warned Rainer that it was very windy that day, as it had been the previous two days.

    Long story short, the plane didn't land at the first attempt but aborted the landing. Too much wind, too much turbulence, too unstable. It almost touche ground but only almost.

    Rainer's plane had enough fuel for a second attempt, and the passengers were informed that if that also failed, they would be flown back to Lisbon. Luckily, it worked the second time.

    The second plane didn't even attempt to land but immediately turned around and flew back to Lisbon.

    I monitored this on-site as well as on Flightradar.
    I'd say we were lucky ❤️.    Leer más

    Camellia sasanqua

    29 de enero, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    I have a camellia in the garden here.
    It blooms very abundantly for the fact that it is now also winter here. So far I have never had a camellia in the garden and now I am learning something about it.
    For example, that it produces flowers extremely early in the season.

    Camellia sasanqua, is a species native to southern Japan. It is usually found growing up to an altitude of 900m.

    At the beginning of the Edo period (1601 until 1868), cultivars of Camellia sasanqua began appearing; the first record of the cultivars of this plant was made by Ihei Ito (1695–1733). The Japanese call it Sazanka.

    This plant was not known in western society until in 1820 Captain Richard Rawes brought it to Thomas Carey Palmer, of Bromley in Kent. Then in 1869, Dutch traders imported some specimens into Europe. It has now also been introduced to Australia, New Zealand and the United States.

    It has a long history of cultivation in Japan for practical rather than decorative reasons. The leaves are used to make tea while the seeds or nuts are used to make tea seed oil, which is used for lighting, lubrication, cooking and cosmetic purposes. Tea oil has a higher calorific content than any other edible oil available naturally in Japan.    Leer más

    O Rei dos Queijos

    30 de enero, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    O Rei dos Queijos (King of Cheeses) is a renowned specialty shop in Ponta Delgada's historic center, right next to the Mercado da Graça.

    Founded in the late 1970s by Carlos Bernardo as a conventional grocery store, the business specialized in regional cheeses around the turn of the millennium.

    The selection includes over 40 different cheeses from all nine islands of the Azores. Of particular note is the work of the "Afinador" (cheese refiner): the cheeses are aged and matured in their own cellar, a craft still practiced today by Mário Bernardo.

    Since visitors can sample the different varieties before buying, I took the opportunity to try my way through the selection 🤣.
    The shopkeeper, of course, had to offer his expert advice.

    In addition to cheese, the shop also carries local liqueurs, wines, honey, jams, pastries (such as queijadas), and traditional bread.

    The shop is open from Monday to Friday from 8 am to 6:30 pm, and until 7 pm on Fridays.

    It is easy to find due to its location and the intense aroma of cheese. 🧀🧀🧀💨🤣    Leer más

    Fish barbecue

    What are we supposed to grill in the middle of the Altantic? 🤔

    Today we are doing the first test with the fireplace. Let's see how the heat and smoke develops. Honestly, I've never grilled in this kind of outdoor fireplace and certainly not on such a winding island.

    We preferred not to buy the most expensive fish for the first experiment. 🤣    Leer más

    Chá Gorreana

    1 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

    Today we visited the tea plantation and the museum of Chá Gorreana and tasted tea there. The plantation is open every day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. on) and there is no entrance fee.

    Gorreana is the oldest surviving tea plantation in Europe and one of only two still operating in the Azores.

    Although the Azores were initially famed for growing oranges, blight devastated the orange fields to the point of near-complete destruction by 1864. The farmer José do Canto was the first to import tea, in 1860, as a potential replacement crop. In 1878, the Society for the Promotion of São Miguel Agriculture arranged for two Chinese tea specialists from Macau, Lau-a-Pan and his interpreter Lau-a-Teng, to teach São Miguel the fundamentals of the industry.

    Tea was especially cultivated on the northern slopes of the island. Tea harvesting took place between April and September, mostly employing women and children.

    Although there were previously multiple tea companies on the island, global economic instability during the world wars, immigration from the Azores, and competition with tea from Mozambique led to a decline in the tea industry, with Gorreana being the sole survivor by the 1980s.

    The tea plantation that would become Gorreana was founded in 1883 by Ermelinda Gago da Camara, wife of José Honorato Gago da Camara. Her granddaughter Angelina and her husband Jaime Hintze took over the plantation upon her death in 1913.

    Hintze modernized the plantation and rebranded it as Gorreana in 1926 and it is still in the possession of the family.

    As of 2021, Gorreana was maintaining its operations much as it had in earlier times, producing between 30 and 40 tons of tea per year. Gorreana produces varieties of both black tea (Moinha, Broken Leaf, Pekoe, Orange Pekoe, Ponta Branca, Oolong) and green tea (Hysson, Encosta de Bruma, Pérola). The relatively dry climate and isolation from parasites has allowed Gorreana tea to be produced without the use of pesticides.    Leer más

    Lagoa do Fogo

    1 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 11 °C

    After visiting the tea plantation, we drove across the island towards Ponta Delgada. We took the winding road and passed Lagoa do Fogo.

    The island is only 8 km wide at this point and the road goes to 950 meters. Accordingly, there is a lot of wind there and the temperatures are quite cool.

    Lagoa do Fogo (Lake of Fire) is a crater lake within the Água de Pau Massif stratovolcano in the center of the island of São Miguel. The highest lake located on the island of São Miguel, the region is protected by governmental regulation that does not permit any constructions around the lake.

    Since 1974, the Lagoa do Fogo had been under the administration of national legislation as a protected area, forming the Reserva da Lagoa do Fogo an area that includes approximately 2,182 hectares.

    Lagoa do Fogo is one of the largest of the waterbodies in the Azores, and occupies the central caldera of the Água de Pau Massif. The caldera is the youngest volcano on the island, formed approximately 15 000 years ago, resulting from the collapse at the top of the volcano, some 5000 years ago. The last eruption occurred in 1563.

    It is part of the hydrological watershed of the same name. The margins of the lake are located 575 metres above sea level, although the crater rim, which extends to Pico da Barrosa is located at approximately 949 metres altitude. The internal flanks of the crater (characterized by abrupt 48º cliffs) are occupied by the elliptical lake, 3 by 2.5 kilometres and 30 metres deep.

    The carved relief affects the course of hydrographic run-off, which is accentuated by torrential precipitation in the region, resulting in accentuated erosion and deposition along the margins. A majority of the watercourses are temporary or torrential, with the greatest run-off occurring in the winter, and little in the summer, with few permanent ravines. There are only two permanent effluents in the lake, one to the western crater rim in Barrosa, and the other in the south-southeast. The lake is maintained from mainly, direct precipitation over the caldera and from superficial run-off from the watersheds, where nutrient infiltration is common. The lake's waters support local aquifers in the lowlands and provide potable water to the settlements in the southern flanks of the caldera.    Leer más

    Piscina do Porto dos Batéis

    3 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌧 17 °C

    The Piscina do Porto dos Bateis is a seawater pool near Feterias and was formerly an ideal place to enjoy the proximity to the sea and swim in seawater despite the rough waves.

    It was destroyed by severe storms in the winter of 2023/2024, particularly during violent storms in December 2023 and January 2024. Large parts of the pool structure were severely damaged by the sea and partially washed away.

    This led to the permanent closure of the pool, which had already been temporarily closed due to COVID-19 and technical problems.

    Restoration is considered unlikely due to the extensive structural damage and the extremely exposed location.

    I like the place, the sea is huge there and the sunset is tremendous.    Leer más

    Jardim Botânico António Borges

    4 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌧 15 °C

    The Jardim Botânico António Borges is a botanical garden, located in the center of Ponta Delgada.

    It is a historic romantic garden of the 19th century (created between 1858-1861) that functions as the city's green lung. With free access, it features a rich diversity of exotic botanicals, caves and volcano rock tunnels, and a palm tree avenue, offering a refuge for hiking and walking.

    One of the main features and attractions are definitely the romantic style. It is designed with sinuous lines and semi-symmetry, reflecting the 19th century pictorial aesthetics.

    It houses exotic species from all over the world, highlighting the impressive Australian tree Ficus macrophylla (banyan) with its aerial roots, and the grove of palm trees.

    It includes a lot of caves and lava stone tunnels, lakes, viewpoints and pedestrian paths, inspired by local geology.

    There are also a lot of animals around including chickens, roosters and geese.

    Founded by António Borges of the Chamber of Medeiros, it was acquired by the Municipal Chamber of Ponta Delgada in 1957, currently serving as a public laser park.

    I went there for a walk and a galao in the Jardim Natural Food & Coffee. I can highly recommend both, the botanical garden and the coffee 🌴☕❤️.    Leer más

    Portas da Cidade

    5 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

    The Portas da Cidade (City Gates) of Ponta Delgada are located in the old city center.

    These gates, a landmark of the city, are a symbol of the city's early land defenses on the southwest coast of the island. They were erected in 1783 , originally opened in the walls of the eastern sector.

    With the start of construction on Avenida Infante D. Henrique (Avenida Litoral) (1948), they were removed and then rebuilt 32 meters westward, in the center of Praça de Gonçalo Velho (1952).

    In the night they are illuminated.    Leer más

    Happy birthday my love ❤️❤️❤️

    6 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌧 15 °C

    Today the third storm in a row moves over the Azores. First Kristin, then Leonardo and now Marta.

    So we stripped into... birthday! 🎊🎉🎂💐 - happy birthday my love 🥰😍🤩😘❤️.

    So what to do on a birthday when the world looks like doomsday and torrential rain is pouring down from the sky?

    Vistit the rainproof and stormproof market hall to get yummy supplies and then off for a birthday lunch to Louvre Michaelense, next to the Igreja Matriz de São Sebastião. By the way, this is how the church looks from the inside.

    After that, we actually wanted to drive back on the north side of the island, but the roads were knee-deep under water, so that the car would have sucked in water.

    That's why I turned around and slowly but surely drove home through the floods along the south coast.

    My sweetheart was once again enthusiastic about my sovereign and safe driving skills in all weather and terrain situations. Otherwise he probably wouldn't sit on the back of my motorcycle when it's off-road 🤪.

    Now we are back home, I have just been poured an bagaceira for the excellent driving skills and tonight the yummy supplies from the market will be prepared.

    Outside it is still storming, but the deluge is over. Anyway everything here is geared towards storm lows, but three of them in a row have not occurred for decades.

    You have probably already noticed what the three are doing in Portugal and the entire Iberian Peninsula.

    Fortunately, it was only an adventurous birthday for us.    Leer más

    Poça da Dona Beija

    7 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    Today we went to Furnas in the hot spring bath called Poça da Dona Beija.

    The entrance fee to this thermal bath is 12.- for 1.5 hours and that's quite enough time for the thermal bathing. There are changing rooms and showers, which can also be warmed up for a fee of 1.-. There is parking right at the entrance.

    At one point there was a little bit of rain and it was the absolute highlight, to sit in the hot water and get cold raindrops on your head 💦😍❤️.

    But also without rain it's awesome to hang out in the 39° warm water and get massaged by the small waterfalls.

    The Poça da Dona Beija, also known as Poça da Juventude (Youth Pools) or Poça do Paraíso (Paradise Pools), is located directly in the valley of Furnas, in an area known as Zona das Águas Quentes.

    The name comes from the brazillan soap opera Dona Beija. The romantic scenes of a small waterfall where the main character, Dona Beija, used to bathe, was still fresh in people's memory, when this location started to gain more notoriety, thus giving it its current name.

    It is part of a set of iron rich hot springs connected to the volcanic phenomena of the crater of the valley of Furnas. Its formation comes from the existing underground thermal aquifers which makes the water, in permanent contact with rocks subjected to high temperatures, gradually heat, reaching the average temperature of 39º C.

    On site there is a natural hot spring within a cave, which supplies the water for the four pools, an area to wet your feet or body and part of the stream (which holds a removable floodgate) allowing a mixture of hot and cold water.

    The yellowish colour of the water is due to the presence of cyanobacterias, photosynthetic oxygenic beings, that when found in iron-rich environments react with the free iron, oxidizing it.

    Nowadays Poça da Dona Beija’s ferruginous muds are indicated for cutaneous invigoration, and it’s hot waters are therapeutic.

    The iron-rich waters are used by the local people to water the taro root plantation, because the mud is considered an ecological fertilizer for it, and its amount makes the Furnas people grand taro root planters of the island of Sao Miguel. You can also find the taro plants in the thermal bath.

    We plan to go again, that time we plan to go at night 🤩.    Leer más

    Bar Caloura

    7 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    Today we made up for the missed birthday fish dinner from yesterday.

    The weather was only sunny this morning, so we took advantage of it to drive along the north coast to Furnas to visit the hot springs. I was really amazed this morning that the sun came out at all after the doomsday weather yesterday and there was little wind.

    And the following clouds in the afternoon after visiting the hot springs didn't hurt the following fish meal at all 😋.

    We had 16° and it was relatively windless there, so without any problems, we could sit outside with a jacket. Me of course, without a jacket 🤣.

    I highly recommend this restaurant for the fish. Skip everything else, they have no sense for salad or vegetables but go there for the fish. It was an excellent choice and it's definitely worth it!    Leer más

    Jardim Público da Courela

    8 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    Jardim Público da Courela is a public garden located in Furnas, a small town in the southeastern part of São Miguel Island in the Azores.

    It is a beautiful and tranquil spot, offering a variety of walking paths, lush vegetation, scenic views and stinky vents 😂. This park is more widely known for its geothermal activity, featuring numerous fumaroles - openings in the earth's surface that emit steam and volcanic gases 🤢.

    These fumaroles are part of the larger Furnas Volcano, a significant dormant volcano with a summit subsidence caldera. The park offers visitors a unique experience of witnessing geothermal phenomena up close.

    Since the Parque Terra Nostra costs entry fee it's import to mention that you neither pay for entrance, nor for parking.    Leer más

    Parque Terra Nostra

    9 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    Terra Nostra Park is a botanical garden located in the Furnas Valley. This park houses one of the world's largest collections of camellias, with more than 600 different genera, and also the largest collection of cycads in Europe.

    One of the biggest attractions is the water pool with naturally brown thermal water and a temperature of 38 °C. The pool is decorated with stone carvings and surrounded by exotic plants. Bathing is allowed, but requires longer showers afterwards.

    But you can't just look at the park, it costs an entrance fee of 17.-. If you have nothing else to do in Furnas or live there for a week, you can safely invest this 17.-. However, if you have a car around to explore the island and some time, you should not pay the entrance fee for the time being and only fall back on it when you can't think of anything else.

    The garden was founded in 1780, when the then consul of the United States of America on the island of São Miguel, Thomas Hickling, built his summer residence here, which then became known as Yankee Hall.

    It was not until the middle of the 19th century that the area of two hectares gradually grew. The Viscondes da Praia or later the Bensaude family expanded the area to an attractive size.

    Water gardens and plantings with dark alleys and flower beds were created, and Yankee Hall was transformed into a hotel. In 1872, when the garden was already in the hands of the 2nd Visconde of Praia, he brought in Portuguese and English specialists. They carried out a reconstruction of the existing canal, built caves and avenues of boxwood, but the paths with orange trees have disappeared. Trees were imported from North America, Australia, New Zealand, China and South Africa.

    In the 1930s, the Terra Nostra Park was acquired by Vasco Bensaude, who saw it primarily as an addition to the Terra Nostra Hotel. At that time, the park reached an area of 12.5 ha, divided alternately into gardens and forest. Vasco Bensaude had a great knowledge of botany and horticulture, as did his gardener of Scottish origin, John McEnroy.

    If you stay in the hotel you can enter for free.    Leer más

    Furnas, Thermal Village of São Miguel

    10 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌧 17 °C

    Since I haven't written anything about Furmas itself yet and today is not only a working day, but also foggy outside, I'll use the time to catch up on it.

    Furnas is a small picturesque thermal village located in the heart of São Miguel and known for its natural beauty, with verdant landscapes, volcanic hot springs, and vibrant botanical gardens.

    So it's mainly about its abundant geothermal activity, evident in the steaming fumaroles and natural geysers. In addition you have lush green landscapes and the beautiful botanical gardens. That's it more or less, some small stores and restaurants here and there. Nothing fancy, nothing extraordinary, just normal island food - octopus with potatoes or beans with potatoes and pork belly.

    There is the Terra Nostra Garden Hotel and if you live there, you have free entry to Terra-Nostra Park. However, I don't understand why you should stay here for several days, because the location of the place is not convenient as far as the other parts of the island are concerned.

    I prefer to live a little nicer on the coast and come here from time to time for a day trip. But you should definitely do that, because this region is one of the most intriguing and unique places to visit on the island of São Miguel and you definitely have to spend some hours in a thermal spring.

    Pumice

    12 de febrero, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    We found pumice at Lagoa Azul! I'm still limited today, so I'll take my time to write something about pumice.

    It was dancing on the surface of a small stream near a small weir, circling around, obviously waiting for us to collect some, which we did.

    Pumice is widespread in the Azores due to the intense volcanism, especially on São Miguel and Faial. The light-colored, porous rock shapes the landscape, forms beaches at Lagoa do Fogo, and is used locally as a building material (tuff).

    Pumice is a very light, highly porous volcanic glass that forms during gas-rich eruptions and floats on water due to its low density.

    It forms when gas-rich lava cools rapidly and is often white, gray, or brown in color. During its formation, viscous lava is foamed up by water vapor and carbon dioxide.

     Chemically, pumice is no different from other lava (its chemical composition can vary just as much as that of lava), but it is significantly lighter (approximately one-third the density) and, due to pores caused by volcanic gases, often has a much lighter color than lava rock of the same composition.

    Pumice can reach the sea through relatively steady land erosion, but also through acute volcanic eruptions. The particularly large eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia in 1815 ejected so much pumice into the sea that ships were still encountering floating pumice rafts years later.

    In August 2012, light-colored pumice was sighted floating in the South Pacific Ocean between New Zealand and Tonga, covering an area of ​​463 × 55 km. It is attributed to the underwater volcano Monowai.

     In August 2019, catamaran sailors Michael Hoult and Larissa Brill discovered a pumice carpet covering 150 km² and collected samples of the 1–25 cm diameter stones. NASA satellite images show that an underwater volcano had erupted off the island nation of Tonga on August 7th.

    Carpets of this type occur in this region approximately every 5 years.    Leer más
