Azoren Tag 1
24 marzo, Portogallo ⋅ 🌬 15 °C
Wow, was für ein Tag. Nachdem wir uns erstmal orientiert und unsere riesige Bude bei Tageslicht erkundet hatten, starteten wir die erste Inselerkundung. Schon nach ein paar Metern auf der Straße fühlten wir uns sehr an La Réunion erinnert, die Insel ist mindestens genau so grün und hügelig. Erster Stopp war der Fornas Vulkankratersee, anschließend ging es noch einige Minuten weiter, bis wir den Terra-Nostra-Park erreichten. In diesem wunderschönen Park badeten wir in den heißen Thermalquellen und picknickten unter Palmen 🌴. Auf dem Weg nach Punta Delgada stoppten wir noch an einer Teeplantage, wo zu Lenas Freude zahlreiche Ziegen es sich schmecken ließen.Leggi altro

Heute geht's wandern
3 ottobre, Portogallo ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
Am letzten Tag unseres Urlaubs bin ich alleine unterwegs, da ich eine Wanderung zu einem Wasserfall unternehmen möchte. Es geht von REMÉDIOS zum JANELA DO INFERNO (" Höllenfenster") im Tal des RIBEIRA SECA. Die schöne und nicht allzu anstrengend Wanderung ist etwas 7,5 km lange und führt durch Wald und Flur, über Viadukte und durch niedrige Tunnel hindurch, bis zum " Höllenfenster". Eine kurzweilig Wanderung mit einigen tollen Foto-Spots. Sämtliche Viadukte und Tunnel wurden angelegt um eine Schnapsfabrik, an der Küste, mit Wasser zu versorgen. Nach gut zwei Stunden erreiche ich das Auto und mach mich auf zum LAGOA DO FOGO.Leggi altro

Tues - Lagoa do Fogo - Fire Lake
12 marzo 2019, Portogallo ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
We went to the Lagoa do Fogo, an old volcano that has a lake in its caldron. The road up was pretty windy and some us felt a little carsick. The views are supposed to be wonderful but the cloud cover was a too thick for us to really see the lake very well. On top of that, it drizzled for most of the time that we were there. But that didn’t stop us.

We drove on to the Caldeira Velha Environmental Interpretation Centre where there are more hot springs as well as a small building that explains the geology of the island.

Both of the thermal pools have a stone wall around them and they are surrounded by intense lush foliage which really creates a unique feel. Someone said that it is just like stepping into Jurassic Park - a Velociraptor could jump out the bushes at any moment. Haha.

The main highlight is the waterfall spring at the end of the park. Below it is a bigger pool with an amazing backdrop. The water is hot in areas and cold in other.

The kids didn’t want to go into the water today as it was pretty cool outside. Chris and I let them play in the interpretative centre while their parents relaxed in the water. The mineral waters are supposed to be good for your health.

When we returned home, the sun was full out and it was a lovely for relaxing in the sun. A highlight of the house for us is that we have a wood BBQ with a stack of firewood and can cook our dinners in it. Lizards in the bbq, beware!

The Best Experiences of the Day

Nathan - jumping on the mat in the Interpretative Centre

Audrey - getting chased by Grampy in our backyard

Cal - playing with the soccer ball with Mommy in the backyard

Matt - drinking coffee

Amy - sitting in the thermal waters at Fogo

Tim - hiking on his own near Remedios

Caitlin - standing under the cold waterfall in the hot springs in Fogo

Connie - watching the kids colouring in the interpretative centre while Nathan jumped on the mat

Chris - lunch at a nearby restaurant with Caitlin, Amy and Matt. Amy eating a Franchesinha sandwich.Leggi altro

In the Azores to meet the Family!
10 marzo 2019, Portogallo ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
On Saturday, we flew from the small airport in Madeira to the even smaller airport of Sao Miguel in the Azores. Our plane was a prop plane and the flight took 2 hours. But the time moves back an hour, so we actually arrived one hour earlier.

São Miguel is the biggest of the nine major islands in the Azores which are a 1,000 miles from anywhere. It’s known for its volcanic scenery, flora and rich marine life, including whales, dolphins and sea turtles. Even though it is the biggest island, it is only 62 km in length and 15.8 km at its maximum width. Ponta Delgada, the capital city, has a population of 45,000 people and is located on the south shore.

Our family was arriving early in the morning on Sunday, after a 5 hour overnight flight from Toronto, so we stayed in a hotel in Ponta Delgada fairly close to the airport for a night before going to the 4 bedroom house we had booked in Lagoa.

We rented two small cars for a great price - €11.50/day for a 4 person car and €14.50/day for a 5 seater with a baby seat for Nathan. The two older kids brought their small travelling car seats. Since our families were coming on Sunday early in the morning, we picked up both cars the afternoon before. Autokunha was very accommodating. They told us that parking is free on the streets in Ponta Delgada on weekends.

Well, they arrived, pretty exhausted after a night of little to no sleep. The kids were so excited that sleep was a no go on the plane for everyone. Haha. It will pass.

Amy, Matt and Nathy took a nap in our room while Caitlin, Tim, Cal, Audrey and the two of us did a little exploring. Of course, the black sand beach and the old fort was the first place that we went to!

It was great for all of us to be together again! The house on the ocean was the perfect place for us.

Note: The footprints for the coming week will be based on the best experiences that each person in our family had during the day. Audrey reminded everyone at dinner time to tell about their favourite part of the day. She started and then everyone else shared a moment that they enjoyed. Then quickly I jotted down notes!Leggi altro

Erster Tag São Miguel, Bus kommt nicht
2 agosto 2019, Portogallo ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
Gestern Abend sind wir mit 15 Minuten Verspätung in Ponta del gada angekommen.
Die Fahrt war ganz schön kabbelig. Ich würde sagen Stufe 7 auf der TVS, der Tania Vomit Skala.
Nach der Ankunft rein ins Taxi und ab nach Lagoa.
Der Vermieter wartete schon vor der Tür auf uns. Nach einer kleinen Hausbesichtigung lud er uns ein, die Gegend zu zeigen. In seinem Auto zeigte er uns alle Restaurants, Supermärkte und Fabriken im Umkreis. Super!

Heute Morgen hatten wir etwas Zeitdruck. Wir wollten den Bus um 09:20 nach Furnas nehmen.
Gott sei Dank hatte der Bus ca. 30 Minuten Verspätung. bitte ist erstmal in die falsche Richtung gestartet. Nach herumirren und zweimaligen Fragens haben wir die Haltestelle dann gefunden und durften noch warten. Der Bus war fast voll. Im hinteren Bereich saß eine Gruppe Pfadfinder mit Musik und den Versuchen, diese verbal zu begleiten. Singen würde ich das nicht nennen.

Kurz vor Furnas stiegen wir an dem See Lagoa da Furnas aus. Ein Schöner Wanderweg fürs uns eine Stunde um den halben See bis zu den Heißen Schlammlöchern von Caldera. Dort sahen wir, wir gerade die Kochtöpfe aus der Erde geholt wurden. In ihnen befindet sich der regionale Eintopf, der Cozido, aus Fleisch, Gemüse, Kartoffeln und Kohl, den wir später noch essen sollten.

An der Caldeira sprudelt das Wasser kochend aus der Erde. Es riecht nach Schwefel und in einem Bereich ist die Erde bis einem Meter unter der Erde so heiß, dass man in Löchern Kochtöpfe vergräbt und 5-6 Stunden garen lässt.

Unser Wanderweg für uns weiter...
An dem Parkplatz vorbei, rechts steil nach oben, wo es rechts und links aus der Erde dampft. Nach 150 m sollte ein kleiner Pfad nach rechts abgeben und auf eine Straße führen, nur war das kein Pfad, der war total überwuchert. Wir (Birte) haben uns trotzdem getraut und kamen durch Palmenblätter und Dornenzweigen auf eine kleine Straße, die uns durch wunderschöne Taler nach Furnas führte.Leggi altro
