I realized that I am in thebus. I checked my watch, it was seven in the morning. I was alreadyin Zacatecas State, soon arriving to the capital. Overnight thelandscape has changed drastically. Spacious flatlands with a few burnt-out bushes, yellow grasses and cactuses replaced green andfertile mountains of central Mexico. There were less people, lesscars, less houses, less everything. Finally. Real Mexico is out ofDF.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Sun is different thisdays. I can't use to it.  For me the summertime is not over, mainlybecause of pretty high temperature, the fact that I still weart-shirt and flip-flops instead of thick wool coat and warm gloves.Rays are not that hot though, the morning and the evening ones arevery long, orange, and not that bright. The sky took on a differentcolour too,  it is not so bright and blue is definitely different.Frankly, it is hard to explain. You have to come over and see that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;When I arrive to ZacatecasI knew I am in north Mexico. The vaqueros (cowboys) were all over theplace. A white-ish cowboy hat, a handmade leather boots, a pair ofjeans reveals the true. Two years ago I would bet that I am in Texas,but south of USA is mexican. Well, it used to be Mexico, butsomeone(!) trade it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;At the very begging I wasa bit lost. I took the first local bus to the centre and once it waspassing by the first historic-looking church I hop-off. Too early.Then I lost in messy grid for at least an hour looking for anyonethat could help me. Finally following the aqueduct I got to thecharming city centre.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;What is worth seeing inZacatecas? First of all the the city. Weaving narrow streets andcallejones  you will discover the history of a former capital ofsilver. Each corner hides a new secret, a plaza, a panoramic viewover the valley, baroque church, an artesian candy shop...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Museo Pedro Coronel was abig, very big, positive surprise. When your guide book says a modernart museum and it is in the middle of nowhere, you are not expectinga lot. I shouldn't judge so fast, I am really ashamed. The museum hasa breathtaking collection of drawing starting from Braque, Picasso,Ernst through Dali, Chagal, Miro to Orozco and Rivera. Mindblowing... Besides they have a small collection of ancient art formall over the world. It would nothing special, but they exibit thepieces from Indonesia, Angola and Mexico next to each other toemphasize the similarities. &amp;lt;3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;If possible, I andprobably everyone, wants to see the city form above. To admire thegenius of the one who designed, of the one who redesigned it(community), the simple beauty of colourful rooftops, green parks,people passing by... You have to climb pretty steep stairs to get tothe lower station of teleferico, which will take you to the Cerro dela Buffa. There is a church, monument, viewing platform there and theview. It is windy there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;In the ex-convent ofFranciscans there is the next stunning museum.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;The question: "To amuseum or for an exhibition?" was more than actual there. Theplace is know as a Mask Museum. No without a reason - it has acollection of 1en thousand masks! So you can wander around hours anddiscover ones from Veracruz, ones from Chiapas or Tabasco. Afterseeing probably two hundreds you don't wanna see more, but to leaveyou have to pass all of them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;But...  before you startthe mask-education you enter in a fairytale land- the convent. Itreminds me of the history Romeo and Juliet, though is nothing likeVerona. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;I can imagine Romeo in thepatio calling:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;But soft!

You just want to sitand think. What happened there? Who was living here three hundredyears ago? Was it like that? Did they even realized how beautiful isthis place? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;I hadto leave Zacatecas late afternoon. All the hostel were booked. Idecided to spent a night in a nearby pueblo magico-Jerez.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Obudziły mniepromienie porannego słońca. Byłem w autobusie, spojrzałem nazegarek. To dopiero siódma rana. Byłem już w Zacatecas, wkrótcepowinienem dojechać do stolicy stanu. Krajobraz północy znacznieróżni się od okolic Miasta Meksyk. Bezkresne równiny, spalonesłońcem karłowata drzewa, porozrzucane kaktusy, wielka otwartaprzestrzeń. Bez ludzi, bez samochodów, bez miast. Cisza i spokój.Chciałoby się powiedzieć: &lt;i&gt;Witamy w Meksyku!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Ostatnio słońcejest jakieś inne. Trudno się do tego przyzwyczaić. Dla mnie latociągle trwa. Wieczny sierpień. Promienie słoneczne nie są jużtak gorące, ale potrafią poparzyć skórę. Mają ciepłypomarańczowy kolor i nie są tak jasne. Drzewa, domy, ludzie rzucają długie, wyraźne cienie. Niebo mimo, że niebieskie ibezchmurne, też jest jakieś inne. Nasze zimowe niebo  w słonecznedni przyjmuje intensywny, głęboki szafirowy kolor, to jest dużojaśniejsze, jakby nie starczyło farby. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Kiedy dojechałemna dworzec zacateński wiedziałem, że jestem na północy. PołudnieStanów Zjednoczonych i Meksyku muszą być do siebie podobne,przecież w końcu do niedawna były jednym państwem. To krainakowbojów. Prawdziwy &lt;i&gt;vaquero&lt;/i&gt; ma długie, skórzane butynajlepiej brązowe z długim szpicem i na dość wysokim obcasie,czasami ze skóry kajmana lub węży, jasny kapelusz z wełny lubwłosia króliczego, skórzany pasek, niebieskie jeansy Wranglera (!)i jasną koszulę.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Uwielbiam krążyći gubić się w gęstwinie małych uliczek, iść przed siebie ibłądzić, napotykając na  barokowy kościół, niewielki plac zdrzewami pomarańczy, mała czekoladziarnię&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;gdzie mogęwreszcie zobaczyć jak się się  ją wytwarza i jak smakują owocekakaowca, taras z którego rozciąga się widok na miasto. To czeka wZacatecas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Gdy się jużznalazłem i pogodziłem z moją mapą poszedłem do Museum PedroCoronel. Sceptycznie podchodzę do muzeów sztuki nowoczesnej gdzieśna prowincji, daleko od tego gdzie wszytko się dzieję. Biję się wpierś i jest mi wyjątkowo wstyd, że tak właśnie pomyślałem itu. Kolekcja rysunków jest imponująca jest Braque, Picasso, Ernst,Miro, Chagal, Dali, Arp, Orozco, Riviera i więcej... Możnazapomnieć o bożym świecie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;W tym roku chybanie pojadę kolejką na Kasprowy Wierch. Zastąpić to, prawie, może&lt;i&gt;teleferico&lt;/i&gt; na Cerr de la Buffa. Żeby dostać się na góręnajpierw trzeba pokonać chyba z tysiąc stromych schodów, któreprowadzą na stację dolną, żeby tam wsiąść do wagonika.Maszynista-przewodnik opowiada historię miasta i miejscowe legendy,pokazuje wszytko co należy zobaczyć. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Na górze jestkościół, w którym para młoda szykuje się do ślubu, punktwidokowy i mauzoleum.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;To co najlepsze zostawiłem sobie nakoniec- Muzeum Masek. Jak dla mnie dziesięć tysięcy (!)  masek niejest powodem, żeby tam przyjść. Samo miejsce jest jak z z dramatówSzekspira. Stare popękane mury, kamienne łuki, rozwarte kopuły,zielone ogrody z kwitnącymi magnoliami i forsycjami, balkon, taki naktórym czekała Julia, płożące się drzewa oliwne, cyprysy... ipomyśleć, że był to kiedyś klasztor franciszkański&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Wyjechałem z miasta tuż przedwieczorem, wszystki miejsca w hotelach zajęte, niebawem miałemdojechać do Jerez.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;

It doesn't happen to me very often. Well it doeswith movies and books but never with places. Sclerosis.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Why I didn't enjoy it then? (that mustbe a reason why I forgot about it) It is like a perfectly cut Italiansuit and I use a Italian adjective no without reason. &lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;Ifyou show the picture of the downtown to a random person I bet hewould say that this is south of Italy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Frankly, I amalways wondering why many of  Latin American cities looks like Italynot Spain. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;I went there forThe Morelia International Film Festival. It was a bit disappointingexperience. Whenever you go for such an event you expect a hundredthsof cinema-lovers, movies being shown in an old theaters, warehouses,backyards, squares...but not in the multiplex. That totally spoilsthe atmosphere! (I know that it is maybe cheaper and easier fromlogistic point of view, but c'mon...). The movie selection was OK,but once again not great. The Hollywood blockbusters and movie starsare omnipresent...Fucking globalism.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Morelia haseverything that a city needs: nice main square, surrounded byarchways, with comfy benches and casting shadow, all-year greentrees, magnificent cathedral and interesting, walkable downtown.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;After visitingMorelia I am more and more fascinated with colonial house. In acouple of last months I have seen dozens from the Spanish times up tothe one form twenties and thirties of the last century, but I havenever seen a modern or contemporary interpretation. ProbablyGuatemala and Nicaragua are too poor but Mexico, DF for sure not. Thefirst one I have seen is a very good example how to use the idea in amodernist-ish way. In the seat of  foundation of Kurimazutto Kalachused simple forms, local materials, traditional scheme andconstructive solution. My favorite part is he backyard with a thick,green garden...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Getting back toMorelia. Mexican food is well know for tacos, burritos (!),tortillas, frijoles but a local specialty is gazpacho. You can forgetabout the one  you have tried in Spain. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;You chop finelypineapple, mango and jicama add some freshly squeezed orange juiceand mix it, put some picante and sprinkle the soup thing with freshcottage type cheese. Yami!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Ciągle wMichoacan. Wreszcie w Moreli. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Morelia to dla mnie najbardziej włoskie z meksykańskich miast; place, ulice,pałace, kościoły sprawiają wrażenie, że jesteśmy gdzieś wPugli, Calabri czy na Sycyli i to palące słońce. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Ostatnio zastanawiamnie czemu właściwie miasta ameryki łacińskiej są bardziej"italiańskie" niż hiszpańskie. Ciągle nie wiem.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;Pojechałem przedewszytkim na Festiwal Filmowy w Moreli. I tu spotakło mnie wielkierozczarowanie. Jak myślę festiwal filmowy to widzę stare kina,małe kafjeki, rynek Kazimierza, namioty gdzie puszczają filmy,kinomanów, aktorów. A tu heca. Wszystko było w multipleksie! Możei selekcja filmów była niezła, ale niestety Hollywood i tu siębezczelnie panoszy. Wygranym dla mnie i dla jury był film &lt;i&gt;Fechade Canducidad &lt;/i&gt;czyli &lt;i&gt;Data Ważnośći&lt;/i&gt; czego zapewne nieobejrzycia w kinach w Polsce, niestety.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;A i gazpacho. U nasi wszędzie znane to hiszpańskie z pomidorów, a tu niespodziankagazpacho owocowe.&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;Kroiszmango, ananasa i jicamę (sprawdziałem jicama to po polsku &lt;/span&gt;Kłębiankątowaty -pięknie!) wdorbną kosteczkę, wyciskasz sok z  dojrzałych pomarańczy,dodajesz chili i mieszasz, podajesz z twarożkiem wiejskim.

Four lanes highway meandering thorug virginlandscape, huge open spaces, wetlands and lakes, forest...this isprobably what I miss the most the nature. In Europe, at least in thepart where I am from, the wildness is at arm's length.

Thereare two garden&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt; type &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;squares (Plaza Grandeand Plaza Chica) surrounded by colonial or historical buildings&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt; of course a nice church&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt; and a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;market&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt; as a standard set of latin city.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-US" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;One of the sights you&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;should&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;see here&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;is Casa de los Once Patios.

The gorgeous semi-open entrance patio has asmall fountain, the one in the east corner a spectacular view on thecity, other is a garden. It is a shame the not all of them are open&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;for a public view&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;.

Podobniejak u nas rodziny spotykają się aby spotkać się z bliskimi natamtym świecie. I na tym podobieństwa się kończą, tu jest tojedno z najweselszych świąt. Meksykanie jedzą i piją nacmentarzu, na parę dnie przed ustawiają ofiary dla zmarłychWygląda to mniej więcej jak ołtarz, na którym ustawia się ofiarędla nieboszczka z rzeczy, które lubił, więc oprócz jedzeniaczęsto pojawia się alkohol czy ulubione przedmioty. Kiedyś napiszęwięcej o tym szczególnym święcie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Droga ze stolicywiedzie przez góry i doliny, wielkie otwarte przestrzenie,przepaści, jeziora i wszystko co można sobie wymarzyć. Jak tylkouda się wyjechać z Miasta Meksyk, poza zabudowania, przyrodapokazuje się w całej swojej krasie. To chyba jest coś czego bardzomi tutaj brakuje, dzikiej przyrody, dostępnej na wyciągnięcieręki.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Patzcuaro to jedno z tychmiejsc.

Lepiej będę pisał o motylkach(niebawem jadę zobaczyć Monarcha Mariposa).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;W Patzcuaro są dwa place, jeden nazywa sięduży (Plaza Grande) a drugi mały (Placa Chica) i oba otoczone sąbądź to kolonialnymi bądź to historycznymi budynkami, po środkustoją fontanny a dokoła snuja się miejscowi i kilku zagubionychturystów. Generalnie cud, miód i orzeszki aż nie chcę sięwyjeżdżać.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span lang="pl-PL" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Co warto zobaczyć w Patzcuaro? Z całąpewnością Dom Jedenastu Dziedzińców. Jak dla mnie szczytoweosiągnięcie architektury kolonialnej. Każde patio jest inne,wejściowe na wpółotwarte otoczone kolumnadą, z tego po wschodniejstronie można obserwować dachy miasta a jeszcze inne to niewielkiogród.

Yes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Inthe Guerrero State (the one with Acapulco) there was a small fishingtown called Zinhuatanejo. Next to it in the seventies they decided tobuild a new, world-class, modern resort &lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;onwhat was once a coconut plantation and mangrove estuary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;(Sustainability was probably unknown these days, well not only thesedays). T&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;heproject was organized in super-blocks with irregular shapes, with thehigh-speed streets separating these blocks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;That's why I went to the town of Zihuatanejo, hoping to find sometranquil time and Puerto Escondido-like atmosphere. That was a miss.Zihuatanejo is a perfect place if you are a Mexican mum taking yourfamily for a weekend by the Ocean, not exactly if you are abackpacker. Though I met few lost.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span lang="en-GB"&gt;Iwill not forget one moment. It was Saturday night, I was walking downthe beach, just  by the Zocalo, I saw people standing and staring inan unexpected direction. When I came closer I realized why. Therewas a massive beauty-sea turtle. She was just slowly, crawling on thesandy beach. I could stare and stare admiring. But she stopped andstarted digging a whole. It was a nesting season. She definitely cameto the wrong place, full of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;inquisitive&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span lang="en-GB"&gt;people.Some idiots started taking  photos! Fortunately there was a fishermanpassing by and he stopped the people, told us to back off at leastfifteen meters to leave her alone and called the PortAuthorities.Uf.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Think!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;PL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Czypamiętacie wpis o &lt;a href="http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/05/huatluco-mx.html"&gt;Zatokach Huatluco&lt;/a&gt;? Tam gdzie kiedyś były piękne,dziewicze plaże a Almodovar kręcił filmy? Co znów zmalował rządmeksykański? Czy jest więcej takich przypadków? Jasne.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Napółnoc od Acapulco (nota bene), nad Pacyfikiem, leżało małemiasteczko zwane Zihuatanejo, tuż obok niego cudownej natury zatoka.Tam też w latach siedemdziesiątych postanowiono wybudować"światowej klasy kurort". Na miejsce plantacji palmkokosowych i  lasu namorzynowego* zbudowano betonowe arterie, wielkieszare hotele z basenami i plastikowymi krzesłami. Dlatego właśniepojechałem do Zihuatanejo, gdzie spodziewałem się spokojnejatmosfery jak w Playa Madera w Nikaragui. Grubo się przeliczyłem.To raczej miejsce gdzie przyjeżdżają liczne lub bardzo licznerodziny meksykańskie, żeby odpocząć(?). A hostel był tuż oboktargu. Na szczęście spotkałem kilku zbłądzonych jak jabackpakerów** i czas minął przyjemnie, nawet udało mi sięzanurkować, po raz pierwszy po tej stronie kontynentu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Jednejrzeczy z tej wycieczki nie zapomnę. Była sobota wieczór, wracałemdo hostelu wzdłuż plaży, w oddali spostrzegłem grupę ludzitrzaskającą foty jak opętani, cóż pomyślałem, kolejna rodzinameksykańska. Ale moja ciekawość, która mnie kiedyś do piekłazaprowadzi, była większa. Gdy tam doszedłem zobaczyłem, że kilkametrów od nich człapie żółw. Wielki, żółw morski. Ach. Stałemw oddali obserwując, gdy ona zatrzymała się i zaczęła kopaćdziurę. Chciała tu złożyć jaja. Z pewnością nie było tonajlepsze miejsce. Znaczy nie powinno tam być ludzi ani miasta, anie żółwicy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Naszczęście plażą przechodził również rybak z pobliskiego portu,który doprowadził do porządku całe tałatajstwo, kazał nam sięodsunąć na kilkanaście metrów, opieprzył tych co strzelają fotyi zadzwonił do pracowników portu. Brawo dla niego, a dla mniewstyd.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;*ładnieto się może i nie nazywa ale za to jak wygląda.

But I am an urbanist too, notonly a backpacker. Getting there means hacking through the sprawl ofMexico City. Once you cross the first multilevel crossroad you seethat the houses are poorer and poorer, road shoulders are more andmore dirty, there are more and more electricity cables hanging formposts... It was about an hour ride from the "bus station"Rosario butI had a feeling I had never left the city, it was justless dense and lower. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;WhyI am writing it now? The Convent has a terrace and once you get thereyou see sprawl. It approaches the colonial village, which mostprobably in 2-4 years will become a part of The Greater(?) MexicoCity.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB" style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;PL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;Niepomylcie z &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Tepoztlán.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Jadącna miejsce w duchu modliłem się abym dojechał tam gdzie chcę. Niebez przyczyny piszę na początku, żeby nie mylić z Tepoztlan. Otóżwsiadłem do czegoś na kształt minibusu jadącego do Tepozotlan ido końca nie wiedziałem czy dojadę tam gdzie chcę:)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Tepotzotlán to kolejna z &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;magicznychosad, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;którąudało mi się odwiedzić.

Najważniejszym elementem wycieczki ponim jest całkiem przyzwoity kościół z bardzo, bardzo bogatymołtarzem oraz akwedukt, który niegdyś doprowadzał wodę do całegozałożenia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Takwłaściwie mógłbym już skończyć tutaj, ale sama droga skłoniłamnie do refleksji. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Pesero&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;wyrusza z czegoś co można by nazwać dworcem ( klasy np. właśniezamkniętej PKS Łódź Centralna, ale jak na standardy meksykańskieto nie przystoi) i dociera do celu po ponad godzinie. Tak naprawdęnigdy nie wyjeżdżamy z miasta, cały czas przedzieramy się przezdalsze wsie i miasteczka połączone z DF.

Is it weather (Von Humboltcalled it &lt;i&gt;city of eternal spring- &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;theaverage temperature is 21 C&lt;/span&gt;), stunning location or beautifularchitecture- massive colonial houses with tropical gardens.  Myguide was warning me that the real beauty is hidden behind high wallsof sprawling colonial villas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Here you have to imagine that you cross to the other side of themirror, like Alice. Jardin Borda has this unparalleled atmosphere ofmagic, the play of shadow and light, harmonic architecture immersedin blooming flowers, tropical trees and bushes; delicate warm windblowing and rustling leaves, colourful birds singing their serenade.At the very first sight it looks little abandoned, unkept but in thischarming Italian way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Though it does not occupy a  big area, but thanks to variouslevels, terraces, ponds, fountains it seems to be really spacious. Ihad a feeling I am in a kind of maze, but this particular one you donot want to leave. I was loosing myself for a couple of hours, coupleof great hours.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;I was already sold on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;But this is not the end of story. In Cuarnavaca used to "live"a man who could be my idol. Robert Brady. He spent his livetravelling and assembling his magnificent collection. Rich mosaic ofpieces of arts and crafts from all around the world. Starting fromfine art such as paintings by Frida Kahlo or Rufino Tamayo to ancientobjects form Africa, Oceania, India and Far East!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Casa de la Torres, where he deicide to locate his collection, hasan undeniable charm. Just few blocks outside of the down town, in aportion of a massive XVI century (!) ex-convent seems to be verymessy. The objects are flooding the place. Mask, paintingssculptures, lamps, furniture is literally cramped. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;This house is a perfect definition &lt;i&gt;horror vacui&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Before living Cuerna I decided to visit the Cathedral (churchesand temples are the places I always visit. The used to be (and someof then still are) the most important place in every town so theyrepresent the greatest quality and achievement of localarchitecture).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1006793959254440880" name="result_box1"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Cathedral passed a lifting couple ofyears ago. From falling into a ruin church it has change to stunningexample of remodelling. By contrasting simple forms with ornamentedinterior, recalling golden coated molding and restoring the colourfulstained glass architects (who did it?) achieve an impressiveatmosphere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Now I am only wondering what I have missed. What is hidden behindhigh and inaccessible walls? I hoper that the next time I am gonnasee it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;PL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Curnavaca ( w języku Nahuatl  &lt;i&gt;Cuauhnāhuac &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;znaczyw otoczeniu lasu, drzew&lt;/span&gt;) w latach dwudziestych ubiegłegostulecia była Tym kurortem, który przyciągał do siebie największeosobowości kina i życia publicznego, takie jak Rita Hayworth czy AlCapone. Kilkadziesiąt lat później stała się ulubionym miejscemwypoczynku rodzin królewskich z Europy i krajów Bliskiego Wschodu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Co tak naprawdę jest magnesem przyciągającym dotego miasta? Czy może jest to pogoda? Chyba nikt z nas nie skarżyłbysię na średnią roczną temperaturę wynoszącą dwadzieścia jedenstopni Celsjusza i bardzo, bardzo niewiele deszczowych dni. Nie bezkozery nasz sąsiad zza miedzy, niejaki von Humboldt, nazwał ją&lt;i&gt;krainą wiecznej wiosny&lt;/i&gt;. A może niezwykłe położenie pośródgór? Albo piękne kolonialne domy z ogromnymi, zawsze zielonymiogrodami?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;A teraz musimy sobie wyobrazić, że tak jak bajkowaAlicja przechodzimy na drugą stronę lustra. W  Cuernavaca'e tafląlustra jest brama wejściowa do Ogrodów Borda (Jardin Borda). Mająone jakąś niepowtarzalną magię unoszącą się w powietrzu.Harmonijna architektura ukryta wśród bujnej i bogatej zieleni niedaje odpocząć oku ani na chwilę, nad głowami śpiewają ptaki ilatają kolorowe motyle. Może to brzmi nieco (?) kiczowato, ale taknaprawdę jest. Straciłem rachubę czasu i dałem się zgubić wogrodzie, który śmiało mógłbym nazwać Ogrodem RozkoszyZiemskich.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Zakochany w mieście chciałem więcej. Okazało się,że nie po takich doświadczeniach czekają mnie kolejne. Otóż * wmieście Cuernavaca żył, a raczej miał swój dom (?) pan RobertBrady, podróżnik. Większość swojego życia spędził zbierającprzedmioty do swojej niezwykłej kolekcji dzieł sztuki i rękodzieła.W Casa de las Torres, gdzie postanowił wystawiać swoją kolekcjęobok obrazów Fridy Kahlo i Rufino Tamayo znajdziemy sztukę ludowąz Azji, Ameryki Południowej, Afryki! Wnętrze wyglądają jakbyjednak nasz bohater cierpiał na znane nam schorzenie &lt;i&gt;horrorvacui**&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL" style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Sam dom budzi zachwyt,ukryty w cieniu katedry, założony w byłym klasztorze Franciszkanówotwiera się na ogród a z tarasów można obserwować całe miasto idolinę! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL" style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Zanim opuściłemCuernavaca'ę na dobre zajrzałem jeszcze do katedry. I tu znówpozytywne zaskoczenie, moi koledzy po fachu parę lat temuodrestaurowali ją w sposób godny pochwały. Do dość bogategownętrza wprowadzili proste formy i duże plamy kolorystyczne. Dużezłote płaszczyzny odwołują się do nieistniejących już bogatychinkrustacji głowic kolumn głównego ołtarza. A całośćoświetlona przez wielobarwne witraże robi imponujące wrażenie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="pl-PL" style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;Zastanawiam się teraz coczeka za tymi murami Cuernavaca'i? Czy więcej niespodzianek? Mamnadzieję, że będę mógł to kiedyś odkryć.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;______________________________________&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;*to jest bardzo ładny spójnik, o którym tak często zapominamy.Apeluje o przywrócenie go do łask!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;**w architekturze: starch przed pustym/wolnum miejscem.

One of the 40Magical Villages*. Epithets such as magical, stunning, vibrant, orone of the best (typical for LP) always sounds for me suspicious.Going there I did not expect anything like that, I just wanted torest from noisy city, breath a fresh (or maybe just not polluted)air.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Tepoztlánin nahuatl language (one of pre-hispanic languages ) means a placerich with copper.

Undoubtedlya jewel in the crown is a renaissance Dominican ex-monastery whereyou can climb up and see the pyramid and nice view over the town andthe valley and wander around feeling the history of the place, ofSpaniards and indigenous.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div lang="en-GB"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Tepoztlánis also famous for Tepoztnieves, ice-creams/gelatti of the hundredsof  flavours something like Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans fromHarry Potter.

To była podróż przez   Gwatemalę, Salwador (gdzie pierwotnie miałem nie wjeżdżać), do Nikaragui   i tam rzeczywiście dookoła, wracając przez Honduras i jeszcze raz   Gwatemalę (tym razem środkową i północną), do Belize i ostatecznie do   Meksyku.&lt;br /&gt;Szkoda, że to już się skończyło. Ale zaczyna się nowe. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;i&gt;Le Roi est mort, vive le Roi!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Now the name doesn't sound that cool.

From new perspective, big will be bigger, can't wait,  but I know it is not going to happen very soon.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was a fascinating trip, meeting distinct cultures, attitudes,  people, discovering, learning, enjoying and having fun. I really regret I  haven't reach Panama and even Costa Rica, but I realized that I didn't  have enough time (when planning I was sure 2 months should be more than  enough), well I have more places to visit left. &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Now I am and I will be in Mexico for a bit.

Belize to dla mnie wyspy i rafa koralowa, jedynie przejechałem przez Belize City i Belmopan i zatrzymałem się na chwilę w magicznej Dangridze, ale z tego co wiem to za dużo nie straciłem.(Niech mnie ktoś poprawi jeśli się mylę.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt;font-size:78%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;Motto Cay Caulker to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Go Slow!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt; co można tłumaczyć jako zwolnij albo bardziej jako &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stary Wyluzuj&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt;font-size:78%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;Wiało i wiało, i wiało, nie udało mi się zanurkować i zobaczyć fantastycznej, podobno, Hol Chan, Blue Hole, Half Moon i wszystkich bajerów... Następnym razem!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt;font-size:78%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Udało nam się co prawda namówić jeden dive-shop na nurkowanie...To było coś! Fale ze trzy razy wyższe niż łodka, więc zanim dotarliśmy już połowa chętnych wystawiała się za burtę oddając morzu śniadanie. Druga połowa, bardzo podekscytowana miała problem ze skokiem do tyłu przez burtę, bo fale były wysokie i czasami trzeba było skoczyć 3-4 metry w dół, tyłem. Widoczności nie było, tzn. że ledwo widzieliśmy przewodnika, zresztą nie wszyscy widzieli, i się zgubili i zaraz wypłynęli na powierzchnię. Mnie udało się podryfować trochę, zobaczyć niewiele i przede wszytkim wystraszone miny niektórych nurków. Mimo to muszę przyznać, że było to dobre doświadczenie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt;font-size:78%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;Najlepszym punktem był jednak rejs z Raggamuffin.Popłynęliśmu piękną, drewnianym jachtem na nurkowanie powierzchniowe aby zobaczyć podwodne ogrody, żerowisko rekinów(!). Wszystko w świetnym towarzystwie, w rytmach muzyki reggae zakończone piciem belizeńskiego rumu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt;font-size:78%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: verdana;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p style="line-height: 100%; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt"&gt;Hoping for more relaxed time I went from Tobacco Cay to Cay Caulker. For sure this was not so quiet, it was way bigger and the main reason that ppl are coming here is partying (which I didn't know until I hop on the boat going there) and few of them diving and snorkelling. So it was the partiest and drunkest time of my trip.&lt;br /&gt;The first thing (or ting as they say there) is an ubiquitous motto Go Slow! :)&lt;br /&gt;The wind was blowing, blowing and blowing, sometimes hard and sometimes harder. So no one wanted to go to The Great Blue Hole or Half Moon I was very almost crying), more they didn't want to go to any local reef as well! Next time!&lt;br /&gt;Well, we convinced one dive shop to go. Once we got few miles away from the shore we knew why. The waves where HUGE, they had 6-7 meters, so the ride was bumpy and many guys got proper seasickness. Back-flip wasn't easy too, cos the waves where a bit terrifying and sometimes you had to jump three meters down. Once we got under the water we realized that we won't see much, well some guys even lost the guide! It was an experience, fortunately my and my buddy where calm and enjoyed diving! The next day I had an amazing snorkelling trip on a proper yacht (!). Not only I saw turtles (which by the way I see almost every time I dive) but tens of sharks, few rays and amazing coral gardens. We end up drinking rum punch on the deck listening to reggae music... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="line-height: 100%"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);

Drodzy Panstwo to nie Ameryka Lacinska to Karaiby, pelna geba.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;W Dangriga trudno pojac, co oni mowia, choc mowia po angielsku. Usmiech na twarzy i dziesiaty zolwik z rzedu z nieznajomym wprawia w naprawde dobry nastroj. Nieznajomy z drugiego konca ulicy krzyczy: Czesc, jak siemasz bracie? Ale jak tylko podejdzie to szepcze: Mam skrety... moze chcesz kupic, dobre o tej porze dnia i dobre pozniej :) Nie wiem co w tym miasteczku mnie tak urzeklo, bo urodziwe to ono z pewnoscia nie jest, chyba ta atmosfera, pelnego i absloutnego luzu. Pewny jestem, ze baterie w zegarku na dnie plecka juz sie wyczerpaly. Ach i te rowery, wszyscy na rowerach!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;Nastepnego dnia rano mialem plynac na Tabacco Cay ale, lodka nie poplynela, wiec ugrzazle(?) w knajpie kolo portu czekajac na jakiegos &lt;em&gt;kapitana, &lt;/em&gt;ktory ma dzis rowniez plynac na wyspe. Kapitan byl, zwal sie Buck, lekko wstawiony zawiozl grupe czworga turystow na wyspe. Tam bylo troje innych turystow, dziesieciu mieszkancow, trzy psy i kot. Koniec. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;Pamietam jak w dziecinstwie plynalem na swoja pierwsza wyspe Capri, we Wloszech, moja jeszcze mlodsza siostra, z rozczarowaniem zapytala gdzie sa palmy, zolty piasek i malpa. Tu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;Raj? Prawie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;South Belize and basically the entire costal part of the country is inhabited by Creol and Garifuan people, they have changed this small piece of land in the the most laid-back place I have ever been to. Welcome to the true Carabbean!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;The topic of this post I found at one of the stands in the town and this is the way they do speak english here, f**** hard to understand. Well, when they speak with you you might, small possibility, undertsand, but when you try to catch their chat it is just impossible, they mix it with Creol or Garifuna...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;When you walk down the street you will here at least ten times : How you doin´babe ?! from the lovely, chubby, black girls and ... Whats up maaan? from the guys, but when you reply and they come closer you will almost have a joint in your pocket:) The town has this kind of vibe that makes you smile and you don´t know why... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;The next I was to go to Tabbaco Cay, one of the paradise, remote island (as I was told and I was more sceptic of course) of Belize, the boat didn´t arrive and I could enjoy the town for a bit longer chatting with locals. When Capitain Buck arrived, he was a bit tippsy but we had no other solution then to go with him. I do not regret. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;This is almost a paradise, on the one side Barrier Reef on the other, a nice sandy beach, almost no one on the island, apart from 6 other tourists, couple of locals, three dogs and one cat; warm turquise water, turtles and manatees swimming around, you don´t even have to walk for sunset and for sunrise ...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;Just go!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-3595405996912657851?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/3595405996912657851/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=3595405996912657851' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/3595405996912657851'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/3595405996912657851'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/07/tingz-mus-go.html' title='Tingz mus go!'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zpMC2pAC9zA/Tg_RVbFkYII/AAAAAAAAFW0/87GgoYKCNOI/s72-c/IMG_5108.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-647649526327506952</id><published>2011-06-29T11:14:00.010-05:00</published><updated>2011-07-28T20:40:25.543-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nature'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='guatemala'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architecture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globtrotter'/><title type='text'>El Remate</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qY_sLX1udbQ/Tg_FBz4krkI/AAAAAAAAFWE/SvfseqcDq3Y/s1600/IMG_5076.JPG"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 267px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624931094507073090" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qY_sLX1udbQ/Tg_FBz4krkI/AAAAAAAAFWE/SvfseqcDq3Y/s400/IMG_5076.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nWNIPPC6upQ/Tg_FA7Z3ovI/AAAAAAAAFV8/WzTTUxc0xPI/s1600/IMG_5078.JPG"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624931079345906418" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nWNIPPC6upQ/Tg_FA7Z3ovI/AAAAAAAAFV8/WzTTUxc0xPI/s400/IMG_5078.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b0tKi2RzLGo/Tg_FAnSX0lI/AAAAAAAAFV0/q9zrk7RHhHM/s1600/IMG_5070.JPG"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 261px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624931073945752146" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b0tKi2RzLGo/Tg_FAnSX0lI/AAAAAAAAFV0/q9zrk7RHhHM/s400/IMG_5070.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;El Remate, to cicha i spokojna osada polozona w pol drogi pomiedzy Tikal (najwazniejszy kompleks swiatynny Majow w kraju, o ktorym nie pisze) i Flores (dosc rozczarywujace miasteczko na wyspie, ktore na mapie wyglda znaczenie zgrabniej i czarujaco). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;Zapewnia dlugie i powloczyste zachody slonca nad gladka tafla jeziora, pobudki na dlugo przed switem przez &lt;em&gt;ptasie radio, &lt;/em&gt;konne przejazdzkiw pelnym sloncu nad lagune pelne krokodyli, dzika nature, i mam wrazenie prawdziwa, nieturystyczna Gwatemale.

Tysiace a moze miliony lat temu rzeka wydrazyla w skalach jaskinie i dzis przeplywa pod tymi basenami. Rzeska woda zacheca do plasow, skakania i nurkowania, i jest tym czego potrzebuje kazdy po prawie godzinnej wedrowce a czasami wspinaczce przez wilgotny i parny las podzwrotnikowy. Dziesiec kilometrow od Semuc Champey lezy Lanquin, z popularnymi w calym kraju grotami. Same jaskinie nie robi moze piorunjacego wrazenia, ale przed wejsciem spotkalismy grupe Majow, ktora odprawiala swoja ceremonie(foty) Dzis rzad, a moze wladze Parku Narodowego nie pozwalaja im uzywac jaskin do tradycyjnych modlitw i obrzedow, a  kiedy sie tam tylko pojawia wejscia strzega dwaj uzbrojenia straznicy. Zobaczyc taki obrzadek jest bardzo trudno i normalnie zdjecia sa zabronione, mozna zwyczajne dostac porzadnei w nos ale moj przewodnik twierdzil, ze tym razem nie ma problemu....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Musze wsponiec teraz o roku 2012...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-family:verdana;" &gt;Rok 2012.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Wedlug kalendarza Majow, to wtedy ma nastapic koniec swiata.

Thousands years ago river &lt;span class="hiddenSpellError"&gt;Polochnie&lt;/span&gt;(?)  hollow caves, and now murky river passes under crystal water of the  bridge. It is such a pleasure after a long hike through hot and humid  rainy-forest just jump into fresh water and enjoy the rest of the day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="mceItemHidden"&gt; Just 10 km away from &lt;span class="hiddenSpellError"&gt;Semuc&lt;/span&gt; lies National Park of &lt;span class="hiddenSpellError"&gt;Lanquin&lt;/span&gt;  known for its ok, just ok, caves. The trip will be worthless, I must  admit, if I haven't seen Maya people officiating by the entrance. The  Guatemalan authorities prohibited them to pray in the caves! I should  mention year 2012, because here it means something.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="mceItemHidden"&gt;  If you aver hard about Mayan Calendar, the original is now in  Archeological Museum in Mexico City, you must have heard that it  finishes in 2012, and Maya believe that this is the end of the World.

Puerto Barrios was not my destination though, it is just place, very odiouse place, form where you can take a ferry to Belize or lancha to Livingstone, Garifuna village by the Amatique Bay.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Garifuna&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;Called Garinagu or Black Carib, people of Livingstone and Belize, descendants of African slaves brought here by English in XVII century. Garifuna shed a new light on Guatemala, they are more relaxed and damn happy. From Africa they brought music- drums and drums, amazing cuisine-coconut bread and banana cake and easiness .&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;From Livingstone I took one more lancha to get to Rio Dulce. Originally I planned to stay in a finca by Rio Dulce, but in a wet season mosquito are more hungry, so I continue to Rio Dulce (town), from there to El Estor, Teleman and finally to Coban.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);

from El Estor to Teleman maximum 2.5 h, I arrived there after 3.5 hrs(120/210=0.57); and finally form Teleman to Coban it took almost six instead of  three and a half(210/350=0.6).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;

Wysepka malutka, mieszka na niej nie wiecej niz 80 osob, ale ma siedem kosciolow (w ostatnich latach w krajach Ameryki Srodkowej na sile przybiera ruch ewangelicki) roznych odlamow chrzescijanstwa! Prad jest drogi, produkowany przez generatory na rope, a dostawy z jedzeniem przyjezdzaja raz na tydzien we wtorki, wtedy widac wszystkich uradowanych niosacych zdobycze: mango, ananasy, awokado; w srody mozna kupic swieze bulki z cynamonem, a dzien pozniej z rodzynkami... I tak zycie toczy sie powoli. Cykl dnia wyznaczaja wschody i zachody slonca, tygodnie dostawy, a lata pora deszczowa i sucha. Zegarki prosimy zostawic gleboko w plecaku.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;Dni uplywaly mi na nurkowaniu, czyms co robilem wczesniej, jak sie okazlo nielegalnie, bo bez patentu nie mozna nurkowac! Co najbardziej cieszy podczas nurkowania? Rekin i zolw, wtedy to powietrze w butli szybciej sie konczy, gubi sie swojego partnera i nurkuje sie zdecydowanie za gleboko...Delfiny udalo mi sie zobaczyc jedynie na odleglosc pieciu metrow pod woda, zwialy w czeluscie jak zobaczyly chmare ciekawskich nurkow, by pochwili pojawic sie na powierzchnii, jak juz odplywalismy i odprowadzic nas przez najblizsze dziesiec, bezcennych, minut... do konca dnia z twarzy nie schodzi usmiech. Nie chcialo mi sie wyjezdzac, ale coz nowe przede mna a na nurkowanie przyjdzie pora w Belize!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;____________________________________&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;tu pojawia sie problem natury lingwistyno-translatorskiej, bo slowo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt; cay&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt; cayo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt; nie ma polskiego odpowiednika; to mala, nisko wyniesiona, piaszczysta wyspa utworzona na koronie rafy koralowej; wyspa koralowa?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;**expat to pojecie chyba malo znane w jezyku polskim, to imigranci, ale raczej tacy, ktorzy wyjechali ze swojego kraju na jakis (blizej nieokreslony) czas zeby doswiadczyc zycia w innym kraju, najczesciej sa to przedstawiciele wolnych zawodow lub emeryci.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;Somewhere surrounded by turquoise water of Caribbean Sea on Barrier Reef are Bay Islands. Shall I add more?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;Utila is the backpackers island, just 20 nautical miles from the mainland, surrounded by beautiful cays: Jewel, Diamond, Crystal... Most of them are uninhabited and you can easily rent one from 20$ per night. Fancy?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;There are two ways getting to Utila. First, fast (?) and comfortable is with SOSA airlines. There is a but. The plane might leave, it depends on if there is enough people to go, if the Capitan is sober and many other unexpected factors. The other more reliable is the ferry, called Princes Utila. The catamaran is small, so it is very bumpy cruise, after which everyone seems to have a serious seasickness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;I knew that island is full of expats, but amount of leches (in Latin America they call us differently, whites, gringos, and leches which is an anagram of world leche-milk) welcoming on the island was terrifying. Welcoming, well they were trying to take us to their hotels or diving shops. After a while I realized that they are not gringos at all, they are Creole.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creole_peoples"&gt;Creole&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;Years ago pirates rule the Caribbean. But after years of roaming some of they decided to settle, but for a Gods sake not on Great Britain, they stayed on Bay Islands. Today theirs descendants form Creole culture.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;To runaway form golf buggies and roar of a town I took a ferry and I went to Jewel Cay. Teeny, tiny isleta just 20 minutes off the Utila, with population about 80 people. No doubt you can call this place remote, they produce electricity with diesel generators, the food supplies come once a week and this is an event. Every Tuesday just afternoon couple of small boat brings fresh fruits and vegetables, meat, rice and beans and a lot of cola. You can see happy housewives carrying sweat and ripe mangos, huge pineapples or green avocados and kids running with cold cola... Time passes here differently, no one counts hours, they have no meaning, only sunset and sunrise matter, wet and dry season... You can leave your watch deep in your backpack you will wake up with the sun and fall asleep with the first stars on sky (even if it is just nine)...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;The main reason you go to Utila is diving. The diving society create here unique, in a divers world, atmosphere, more like surfers spots, with all night open bars, parties, drinks...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;What makes a diver happy? For sure seeing turtle, eagle ray or ultimately shark, and bigger means better. Suddenly your gauge shows that you are low on air, you lose your buddy, and you go to deep. But you will never forget your first turtle or whale!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:verdana;" &gt;I could have stayed there much longer, but there is more to discover, more places to see and finally more places to dive including the place, called Blue Whole...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-6618810900712638303?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/6618810900712638303/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=6618810900712638303' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/6618810900712638303'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/6618810900712638303'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/06/las-islas-de-bahia.html' title='Las Islas de Bahia'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rFnH7r4Lxpo/Tf7EzhjZMbI/AAAAAAAAFRo/_5qEyIgG83A/s72-c/Bay_Islands_07.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-3200599023933636007</id><published>2011-06-07T19:29:00.010-05:00</published><updated>2011-06-17T09:38:14.027-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nicaragua'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nature'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globtrotter'/><title type='text'>Isla de Omepete</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vsA3XMIHl-g/TftmGJY2foI/AAAAAAAAFRg/VPMKnDPoLQY/s1600/IMG_4595.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer;

Dzis zamieszkana wlasciwie tylko przez &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;indian&lt;/span&gt; wywodzacych sie z plemion Majow w wielu miescach zachowala dawane zwyczaje i dziewicza przyrode.&lt;br /&gt;Na wyspe docierma lancha i udaja sie do ekohotelu,  gdzie serwuja kuchnie Nica... czyli ryz i fasola ( arroz y frijol to chyba najpopularniejsze danie krajow Ameryki Lacinskiej), pyszne kompot (?) z marakuji, i &lt;a href="http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamal"&gt;natamales&lt;/a&gt; :)&lt;br /&gt;Drugiego dnia pobytu na wyspie wybralismy sie nad wodospady. Mialy byc jedynie trzy kilometry marszu, jak sie okazlo tak, trzy kilometry ale od wejscia do parku, i to chyba byly najdluzsze trzy kilometry w moich zyciu. Gdy weszlismy w gesty las tu zwany dzungla, zrobilo sie nieco ciemniej i bardzo, ale to bardzo goraco. Na drzewach wisialy dojrzale mango (my w polskim mamy tylko jedno okreslenie na mango, tu jest kilka a moze kilkanascie gatunkow), soczyste awokado a na dzrewach tabliczka (w 6 jezykach)- co nie twoje nie bierz! (jedynie we francuskim napisali nie kradnij:) co by napisali po polsku jestem ciekaw) Po pol godziny drogi w oddali zaczelismy slyszec &lt;a href="http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wyjce"&gt;wyjce&lt;/a&gt; (taki duzy gatunek malp) a nad glowami pojawily sie szybko przemykajace kapucynki, od razu usmiech pojawil sie na mojej stryranej wspinaczka buzce. Wreszcie doszlismy, ukryte w waskiej doline Cascadas de San Ramon sa olsniewajace. Po dlugiej wedrowce kapiel w orzezwiajacym wodospadzie byla ogromna przyjemoscia.&lt;br /&gt;W drodze powrotnej spotkal nas okrutny deszcz, dobrze ze udalo sie zlapac jakiegos dzipa, ktory laskawie (za 2 dolary, podroz za jeden usmiech na wsyspie jest niemozliwa) wzial nas na kipe i wyrzucil blisko hostelu, wrocilem totalnie mokry. Coz pora deszczowa trwa w najlepsze.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;sla de&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;Ometepe&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; is a sort of a place that belongs in a fairy tales or fantasy novels ( Tolkien would love it!), an island formed by twin &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;volcanoes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; rising out of the Nicaragua Lake.&lt;br /&gt;I got there by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;lancha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;, and then 2 hours ride to get to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;eco&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; lodge...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;uuuu&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;.... they are sustainable, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;thay&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; work for community and they have very good chef! I tried more of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;Nica&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;cuisine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; and must say it it really good! Passion Fruit juice and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;natamales&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; are my pick!&lt;br /&gt;No doubt the best you can see on the island are &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;Cascadas&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;de&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; San  Ramon, hidden deep in the mountains and surrounded by cloud forest.  They said it is just 3 km and I must say once again that 3 km in Europe  are much shorter than here. The hike was exhausting it was very hot and  humid, but worth it. Jungle is beautiful, we are in mango and avocado  season so trees were &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;sugging&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; with ripe and sweet fruits!After half hour we spot a group of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;capuchin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; and heard howler monkeys.&lt;br /&gt;The waterfall is stunning. Bath in a cold water was &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;everything&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; I need! Clouds were covering the very top of it so it looked like water was falling from the sky.&lt;br /&gt;On the way back heavy shower caught us, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="googie_link"&gt;fortunately&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; we catch a jeep that drove us almost to the hostel. We were soaking wet.

Zatoka, w ktorej lezy miasteczko, kiedys musiala zachwycac. Dzis miejscowi wzdluz plazy postawili karlowate restauracje, pastiz architektury regionalnej a wzdluz brzegu prowadzi, popularny w krajach latynowskich, betonowy, zaniedbany &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;malecon ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Mimo to, miasteczko jest pelne hedonistycznych turystow, i tu wiekszosc to goscie ze Stanow, ktorzy przyjechali oddac sie wszelkim przyjemnoscia i stajac sie czestokroc powodem do wstydu.&lt;br /&gt;Na polnoc od San Juan lezy plaza Maderas. Jestem prawie usatysfakcjonowany. Na plazy jest hostel i bar, i gdy tylko turysci wroca do miasteczka zostaje tam dziesiec osob sam na sam z Pacifikiem. Chyba najwazniejszym wydarzeniem dnia jest zachod slonca, kiedy to wszyscy wychodza na plaze, siadaja i ogladaja niezwykly spektakl. Najpierw jak slonce powoli schodzi na dol i niebo mieni sie na pomaranczowo a potem rubinowo, po chwili szybko biegnie do horyzontu, zeby zniknac na kolejne dwanascie godzin. Po zachodzie, kiedy powoli czerwienie ochladzaja sie do fioletow, po drugiej stronie zatoki zaczyna zapadac spokojna granatowa noc. Za chwile na niebie zaczna pojawiac sie pierwsze gwiazdy.&lt;br /&gt;Po prawie godzinnym przedstawieniu wszyscy ruszaja na kolacje.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:78%;"&gt;(&lt;i&gt;tu Adrian zrobil sie romantycznym...buahahaha&lt;/i&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalej ruszam na Isla de Omepete.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I remember I am constantly looking for the most magical, amazing and stunning beach. Lying by the Pacific is a significant predominance. San Juan del Sur, for sure, used to have one of the beaches, with wide stripe of the sand and shallow turquoise blue water. Unfortunatelly locals destroyed it building concrete and repulsive &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;malecon&lt;/span&gt;, grotesque quasi-regional bars and out scaled fisherman port... Even though, the town enjoys popularity, though most of the visitors are annoying drunk partygoers from North America looking for a very cheap fun. Sorry.&lt;br /&gt;Half hour ride from San Juan, hidden in a bay and surrounded by a dramatic rocky coast lies virgin and def amazing beach called Playa Maderas. After shuttle takes all the tourist back to the town, there are only few people left.&lt;br /&gt;The most important event is a sunset, everyone comes to watch it. The colors are changing smoothly starting from oranges and carmines than when sun set cooling down to magenta and ultramarine... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Just after that stars appears on the dark blue skies. Everyone goes for a dinner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that I am going to Isla de Omepete.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-3324194305272920638?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/3324194305272920638/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=3324194305272920638' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/3324194305272920638'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/3324194305272920638'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/06/san-juan-del-sur-playa-maderas.html' title='San Juan del Sur &amp;

Po godzinie woda zaczela wylewac sie z ulic na chodniki ( zwazcie, ze tu chodnik jest przynajmniej 20 cm wyzej niz jezdnia) i zaczyna padac mocniej i mocniej, grzmiec i blyskac sie... w kafejce siedzialem dwie godziny, z czego godzine bez swiatla, bo wylaczyli zasilanie, w kinie dwie i pol... i ciagle pada. Do domu wracalem brodzac w strumykach plynacych chodnikami... padalo do szostej rano.. a potem jak z rana przygrzalo i znow trzydziesci piec kresek...&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nastepnego dnia czekal mnie ashboarding czyli taki snowboarding tylko, ze zamiast sniegu byl pyl wulkaniczny. Jazda!&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;KARTKI: Obiecuje kartki. Wyslijce mi meja z adresem albo napiszcie na feju i juz leca. Zreszta czesci i tak juz wyslalem, a  niektore nawet doszly!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In (Central) America they measure distance differently, saying rather 12 hours than 320 km...  So after very long (hrs) but short (km) journey I didn´t reach Leon, I had to stop in a quite big town called Estelì. Once I was trying to get out of Texaco to the town center I realized sth funny &amp;amp; strange. In Nicaragua streets don´t have names. For locals, I believe, it doesn´t make any difference, but for everyone else does. They use characteristic points to indicate directions, let´s say two block left and one right form the corner of blue church with the post office.I didn´t even know how to ask for my hostel! ( taxi driver  didn´t know the name- Lazy Turtle*!) After a BIT I got there... they told me that I should have told the taxi driver to take me to the old kindergarten...cool...&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The very next morning I caught a bus to Leon. The chicken bus fit a hundred sitting ppl, at least dozen standing (I was one of them) and couple more on the roof... three hours without air, sweating... once I got to Lean I was wasted... and again problem with the streets naming...at least this hostel was 2 blocks away from the main square...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;It started raining about six o´clock, I though cool, maybe it will cool down air and refresh a bit. It was raining, showering, later thunderstorm started and I was stuck in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Cyber&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:78%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt; for one hour without any electricity waiting for rain to stop... I was getting back rending through rapid streams running on the sidewalks... I got back to the hostel soaked and soaked. It stop raining about six in the morning, just before sunrise.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next day I went ashborading which is basically the same as snowboarding but instead of snow there is volcanic ash. Cool!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;POSTCARDS: Dear friends, if you wish to receive a postcard just send me your home address to my e-mail or fb...&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* anyone can answer why hostels have so strange names such as bearded monkey, black flaming, lazy turtle, jungle party?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-3721446169835433482?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/3721446169835433482/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=3721446169835433482' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/3721446169835433482'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/3721446169835433482'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/06/leon-czyli-lew-leon-means-lion.html' title='Leon czyli Lew/ Leon means Lion'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-aB_jnsH_qvI/TemuL75Nr7I/AAAAAAAAFOI/he140MUAOvY/s72-c/IMG_4406.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-3111616827056065977</id><published>2011-05-31T17:34:00.010-05:00</published><updated>2011-05-31T19:14:17.997-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sport'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='el salvador'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globtrotter'/><title type='text'>becoming a surfer czyli jak to sie robi na Costa Balsamica</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gfWBJyfLOng/TeV_f68Q3jI/AAAAAAAAFNU/shCWqkPe0Gk/s1600/IMG_4287.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gfWBJyfLOng/TeV_f68Q3jI/AAAAAAAAFNU/shCWqkPe0Gk/s400/IMG_4287.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613032696961883698" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How I got back:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0AsdtBg2thU/TeV_Qb_e2bI/AAAAAAAAFNE/JcYWAXMsAqM/s1600/1.1276387822.el-sunzal.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0AsdtBg2thU/TeV_Qb_e2bI/AAAAAAAAFNE/JcYWAXMsAqM/s400/1.1276387822.el-sunzal.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613032430955846066" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-25cmPQDYsRg/TeV_QSSzzjI/AAAAAAAAFNM/99lj4TVbvuQ/s1600/El-Sunzal-5.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 222px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-25cmPQDYsRg/TeV_QSSzzjI/AAAAAAAAFNM/99lj4TVbvuQ/s400/El-Sunzal-5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613032428352556594" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;(2,3) from El Salvador Ministry of Travel site&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dotralem do Mekki surferow. Plaze Costa Balsamica nie zachecaja do plywania czy pluskania. Brzeg jest kamienisty, dno gwaltownie schodzi w dol a woda staje sie gleboka, fale sa silne i wysokie.&lt;br /&gt;Zycie nad Pacyfikiem rzadzi sie innymi prawami, rytm wyznacza slonce, a czas odpoczynku i pracy ocean. Dzien zaczyna sie najczesciej od porannego surfingu, czyli tuz po wschodzie slonca, co w przypadku Salvadoru oznacza chwile po szostej rano, potem sniadanie i lagodnie kolyszacy sie hamak a w tle szum fal i wyjaca bryza... potem jeszcze jedno plywanie przed zachodem slonca i wieczorne party.&lt;br /&gt;Jak uczy mnie przewodnik, jesli nie jestem surferem to ich nie zrozumiem,&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; bo oni sa ulepieni z innej gliny i powinienem o nich raczej myslec jak o delfinach a nie o ludziach&lt;/span&gt;.

Everything depends on sun and the ocean. Surfing is hard. You need to be in a very good shape to practice it, at  least at the very beginning. Being a surfer is a lifestyle. You wake up  with the sun and go surfing and then you rest, swinging in the &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;hammock&lt;/span&gt; smoking or/and drinking and once again &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;surfing&lt;/span&gt; just before sunset.

My amazing guide&lt;/span&gt; told me that it is hard to understand surfers and we should treat them &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;rathre&lt;/span&gt; as &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;dolphins &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span title="" class="verupdated"  style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;not&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span title="" class="verupdated"  style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;people.

Nie mozna powiedziec, ze to jest ladne miasto, ale z pewnoscia lepsze niz inne stolice regionu. Co rzuca sie w oczy to porzadek i wzglednie czyste ulice, przynajmniej w centrum. Mozna by sie spodziewac, ze w upalnym kraju latynowskim zycie w miescie zaczyna sie po zmierzchu, nie tu. O osmej ulice sa puste a ruch samochodowy ustaje. Mieszkancy wola nie kusic losu niepotrzebnie. Jasne, ze jest otwartych kilka barow, dyskotek czy kasyn, ale strzeze je horda bramkarzy uzbrojonych po zeby. Na porzadku dziennym zobaczymy tu ochroniarzy z ostra bronia, strzega nie tylko slepow jubilerskich ale i tych z warzywami.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style=" color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Pierwsza rzecza jaka mnie urzeklai rozbroilazanim jeszcze dotarlem do miasta byla to nazwa placu: Hula Hula.

Okazalo sie, ze to jednen z trzech glownych placy, ten najbrzydszy, zagracony budkami z ciuchami, handlarzami z pitackimi filmami, sprzedawcami niechcianym rzeczy  a na dodatek brudny. Coz pozostaje mu korona za najladniejsza nazwe.&lt;br /&gt;Kolo Plaza Barrios stoi zas dosc niezwykly, brutalistyczny, kosciol z genialnymi witrazami- Iglesia de Rosario. Bryla poczatkowo dziwi, ale gdy tylko wejdzie sie do srodka zachwyca spokojem, zrownowazeniem i gra swiatla, niepozorne cudenko. &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"&gt;Rubén Martínez przekryl caly kosciol poteznym lukiem, ktory sprawia, ze kosciol jest przestrzenny i zwarty.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style=" color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:78%;"&gt;W Salwatorze poznalem miescowych, dzieki czemu na chilwe przestalem byc turysta z przewodnikiem, ktorych jest tu niewiele nota bene. Jednen z nich byl pol palestynczykiem... W XIX wieku do Salwatoru i Hondurasu wyemigrowalo tysiace palestynczykow. Od tego czasu stali sie wazna czescia kultury Ameryki Srodkowej, poprzedni prezdent Salwatoru byc pol-palestynczykiem. Imigranci kontroluja rowniez sporo galezi przemyslu i biznesu! Moral mieszkancy Palestyny -zydzi i filistyni sa obrotni.&lt;br /&gt;Ze ze stolicy udaje sie nad Pacyfik. Do Mekki, a jakze by inaczej, surferow, La Libertad i El Tunco. Postaram sie dolaczyc do grona wspanialych:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style=" color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;After couple of hours in Guatemala City, which I spend running  around (literally, it was Gudatemal Coty Marthin in flip-flops) and  looking for a working a cash machine I reached San Salvador. It gets  dark at 6 PM there! &lt;span title="" class="spellverupdated"&gt;Lonely&lt;/span&gt; Planet warns that the city is &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;dangerous&lt;/span&gt;, very &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;dangerous&lt;/span&gt;. So I just went to the next door bar where they serve &lt;span title="" class="spellmod"&gt;papusas&lt;/span&gt; and some nice &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;Salvadoran&lt;/span&gt; beer. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style=" color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; PAPUSAS &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; Salvador, like every Central American country has &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;its own&lt;/span&gt; type of tortillas, here they call it &lt;span title="" class="spellmod"&gt;papusas&lt;/span&gt;. There are thicker than tacos and always filled with cheese, &lt;span title="" class="spellmod"&gt;frijol&lt;/span&gt; or meat. You eat it with pickled cabbage, onion and carrot and some hot salsa. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; El Salvadord &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;is not a beautiful city&lt;/span&gt;, but it has this thing that makes city likable. It has clean and tidy streets, things that I started &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;apprecaiting&lt;/span&gt; just here in Central America. You may think that in a &lt;span class="spellmod" title="Spelling error - suggestions: Latin, Latina, Latino, la tin, la-tin, lat in, lat-in, Lawton, Layton, Latins, Latiner, lading, lain, Patin, lapin, satin, laden, Latin's"&gt;latin&lt;/span&gt; country streets are full of people after sunset when it is bearable to walk and &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;stand that teenagers&lt;/span&gt; are hanging out and &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;neighbours&lt;/span&gt; are &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;sitting&lt;/span&gt;  on the street chatting and drinking beer. No, not here! The city  empties after six, there are no cars on the streets, people are just  scared... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; City has three main squares. I love one, but only for  its name: Hula Hula. It used to be neat and vibrant square, now you cannoy  call it like that. &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;It is filled&lt;/span&gt; up with aluminium stands, kiosks where thay sell cloths and dvds, play loud music, it reminds rather market, cheap market. Unfortunately. Behind Plaza Barrios stands &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;incredible&lt;/span&gt; and just beautiful church-Iglesia de Rosario designed by Rubén Martínez. This &lt;span title="" class="spellmod"&gt;brutalist&lt;/span&gt; temple has calm, quiet and mystic interior created by colourful stained-glass windows. WOW. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; In Salvador I met some local folks I get &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;acquainted&lt;/span&gt;, thanks to that I was not a &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;tourist&lt;/span&gt; for &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;three days&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;I have&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;heared&lt;/span&gt; a few stories about the country, why they are so many &lt;span title="" class="spellmodupdated"&gt;Palestinians&lt;/span&gt; there, how do they leave and what &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;happened&lt;/span&gt; during a very recent civil war...  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;From San Salvador I am going to La Libertad &amp;amp; Costa Balsamica to try surfing in  &lt;span title="" class="verupdated"&gt;so-called&lt;/span&gt; the best place in Central America, maybe I will become a surfer!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-528631090553662302?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/528631090553662302/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=528631090553662302' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/528631090553662302'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/528631090553662302'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/05/hula-hula.html' title='Hula Hula'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MY2b1r1gnUw/TeV95EtoUFI/AAAAAAAAFM0/OTBfZbjompo/s72-c/IMG_4304.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-5314744197004867226</id><published>2011-05-26T16:08:00.010-05:00</published><updated>2011-05-26T18:35:40.795-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='guatemala'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='city'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globtrotter'/><title type='text'>Antigua&amp;Popocaya</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);

Fajnie, ze mozna sie tu czuc bezpiecznie i swobodnie, a ludzie sie symaptyczni, pomocni, goscinni i usmiechnieci.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wulcan Pacayan mial pluc lawa w te i we w te.

You must have heard about this hole, there are thousands of tourists here, many of them are from USA, and many of them (sic!) came just to party. Cheap drinks, weed and girls?At least in my hostel -Jungle Party-for sure you can take a short course &lt;i&gt;How to be the coolest?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;The town is not amazing, it was destroyed by an earthquake couple of years ago, so all the churches are in ruins, many palaces are destroyed... The main square is OK. Just OK. I have a feeling that I will compare all the colonial cities to Guanajuato in Mexico or to Santiago de Cuba, and this might be unfair to all the other cities. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;I also went hiking on the active volcano called Pacaya. In the agency they were saying  that we might see lava. The guide said: you could have seen it last year when we had a massive eruption, not now. But once you get above 2000 m asl it looks fantastic. Warmish black sand and pebbles, sharp dramatic rock, no plants and this mysterious clouds ( we took it at first as a smoke).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh and one more important thing, you feel and are save here, finally I would say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;First week is over.

Jak sie za chilwe okazalo sie, pogranicznik,  mieszkal w najwiekszym niegdys polskim miescie- Chicago, a bylo to 2o lat temu. Poznal tam wielu ziomkow i z wieloma sie zaprzyjaznil. Jak kazdy obcokrajowiec umial trzy zwroty podstawowe : &lt;i&gt;czesc, jak sie masz i kurwa mac &lt;/i&gt;:P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Z Tecun Uman musialem pojechac do oddalonego o cztery kilometry dworca autobusowego, tym razem ja okazalem sie leniwcem i boi-o-swoje-rzeczy-i-zycie-dupa. Stamtad mialem jechac prosto do Quetzaltenango (teraz stop, przeczytaj to na glos i powtorz i zapamietaj, wraz z Chichicatenango czy Chimaltenago). Okazalo sie, ze nie ma autobusow do Xela´i ( oni tez sobie upraszczaja zycie i tak nazywaja Quetz...), jedynym sposobem zeby sie tam dostac to jazda z dwiema przesiadkami tzw. chicken busem&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHICKEN BUS ( musza sie pojawiac co jakis czas dygresje)&lt;br /&gt;Gwatemalczycy sprowadzaja ze Stanow nieuzywane juz zolte autobusy, ktore w USA dowoza dzieci z przedmiesci do szkol. Tu oni je pimpumuja: najpierw przemalowywuja na przynajmniej 5 roznych kolorow, kolejno dodaja gwiazdy, blyskawice, ognie, zwierzeta i czego tylko dusza zapragnie. Do srodka pchaja dwa razy tyle siedzen ile bylo przedtem. To taka ichniejsza wersja Ryanair'a, mozna smailo powiedziec. Oprocz kierowcy, o zdolnosciach Fernando Alonzo'y, jest jeszcze jedna osoba: bileter, naganiacz, pilot, ladowacz, ktory ze zwinnoscia lemura wskakuje na dach i laduje kosze ze zwierzetami (kaczki, kury, golebie), owoce, rowery, telewizory...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Po piecio godzinnej jezdzie z przesiadkami zmeczony dotarlem do Xela´i jeszcze tylko jedno colectivo i jestem w hostelu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Xela to drugie co do wielkosci miasto w Gwatemali, ma ponad stotysiecy mieszkancow, dziala tam dosc preznie kilkanascie szkol jezykowych, dlatego miasto wydaje sie powoli westernizowac, bardzo powoli... a i mozna spotklac sporo bialych.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GRINGOS czyli bialasy&lt;br /&gt;Zawsze zatnawiam sie czy mnie widac, czy widac ze jestem turysta. Wlasnie w Xela'i zorientowalem sie jak bardzo. Jedynm rzutem oka na plac glowny mozna zobaczyc kto jest stad a kto przyjezdny. Zdradzaja nas nie tylko kolor skory, ale tez wzrost... gwatemalczy nie nosza krotkich spodni ani sandalow ( nawet przy 40 stopniach).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tu kobiety wciaz nosza folkowe stroje ( i teraz tak naprawde nie wiem czy ciagle je mozna nazwac folkowymi czy po prostu codziennymi) a gros dzentelmenow nosi kowbojskie kapelusze ( one to sie chyba rozprzetrzenily sie na cala Ameryke). Dla turysty intersujacy wydaje sie jedynie Parque Central i to wszystko, reszta to zwykly miejski sprawl, biedne suburbia, poskelcane domy bez kanalizacji; szerokie, brudne, brudne i jeszcze raz brudne ulice, zadnych parkow (moze i lepiej). Powiedzialbym, ze maja jeszcze przyzwoity targ, gdzie mozna kupic slodkie, dojrzale i smaczne mango, pomarancze, banany, papaje... ale chyba kazde miasto czy wioska Ameryki Srodkowej takowy ma. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Warto jednak zobaczyc okolice Xela´i ( tak sie zastanawiam czy ktos to jeszcze czyta, niewazne, strona numer siedemnascie) kilka wiosek i moze pokapac we Fuentes de Georginia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Najbardziej zakakujac byla wioska Zunil, gdzie wierzenia Majow mieszaja sie z chrzescijanskimi (bardzo przypomina mi to &lt;a href="http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2009/08/san-juan-chamula.html"&gt;San Juan de Chamula&lt;/a&gt; w Chiapas, Mx). Mieszkancy niewilelkiej wioski w gorach czcza San Simon i wydaje sie ze to on tu jest numerem jeden. Sam Simon ma swoj dom  gdzie mieszka. Wlasciwie mieszka tu kukla, kukla ktora ma swoj salon, sypialnie i garderobe. Szamani codziennie sadzaja go na krzesle w jego salonie i ubieraja, nie moze zabraknac okularow przeciwslonecznych i kowbojskiego kapelusza. Wieczorem zas przebieraja go w pizamke i klada do lozka, tak poprostu. W ciagu dnia mieszkancy trzy razy dziennie skladaja mu ofiary z zywych zwierzat- kury albo golebia. Napierw odcinaja glowe biednemu ptakowi, krew wlewaja do jednego kielicha a reszta lezy na duzej plastikowej tacy, potem szaman zanosi to wszystko na dach i pali razem z ziolami.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Po tej dosc ekstrawaganckiej wizycie mozna sobie odpoczac w goracych zrodlach, osiem kilometrow od Zunil, gdzie woda dochodzi do 52 stopnii celcjusza, czyli taki rosolek. Jakby tego bylo malo one tez maja dosc niezwykle polozenie-caly czas wisi tam gesta mgla, ze widac tylko na odleglosc dwoch moze trzech metrow.... ach ta mistyka majow&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CDN&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, from Ciudad Hidalgo I cross the massive steel bridge to Guatemala, what I found funny the gurad knew copule of words in polish. I cautch a tricicleta ( it's riksha style bike) to the bus terminal. Obviosuly there where no buses to Quatzeltenango ( now, stop and try to read and remeber it and than ask for direction) they told me that I can go there and catch a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:78%;" &gt;chicken bus&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; ( Relahau) and change there for a bus to (...ltentango) and form there it is just 15 km to Xela ( which is the abbrevation of Quetz...).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHICKEN BUS ( I don't really know why it is called chicken and not pork for instace)&lt;br /&gt;I am sure you know, at least from the movies the yellow bus that takes kids in US to the school. So guatemalian imported many of them, pimp them up painting in rainbow colours adding some stars, animals, thunders... and now they are the only buses in Guate. Aparat from the driver there is also one guy - who is helping and selling tickets, packing animals, fruits, bikes and refrigerators on the roof.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So after 5 hrs I was in my hostel, happy to leave my passport and money in the savebox and just walk around. Xela is a bit westernized city, there are plenty of Spanish language school and many students, most of them are americans. All, almost all, americans have this amazing american-Spanish accents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GRINGOS&lt;br /&gt;I was always wondering if you can see, straightaway, all the whities turists. So yes. One glimps and I could count all the gringos on the square. And it is not only colour of the skin but also the cloths-Guatemalan don't wear shorts, flip-flops or sandals and  shades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here ladies still wear beautiful, ethnic dresses and all the gents have  hats ( the same as in Texas and probobly in entire America). For a turist there is not much to do in Xela, the historic center is just, literally, one block. Apart from that, there is a market that seems to be cool. You can get there fresh, juicy and sweet mangoes, papayas, bananas and drink my favourite licuados ( finally!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Around Xela there are couple of nice villages where christian and western culture mixes with the Maya's tradition and believes. In Zunil they worship San Simon. He used to be Maya god and now he is a christian saint(!) San Simon has his own house with bedroom, walk-in wardrobe... He, a plastic toy, changes everyday, wears sunglasses and cowboy hat. In the evening shaman takes him to his bedroom and San Simon sleeps there. Villagers, apart from praying, also scarify animals ( pigeon or chicken), cutting the head and pouring the blood in the the goblet and than shaman burns everything on the roof. In spite of protest of priest they also take the doll for Easter celebration, dancing (!), eating and partying with it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this extravagant experience you can just enjoy hot spring in Fuentes de Georginia cover with mystic fog..wrau...mystic Maya world&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-2476798877424199817?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/2476798877424199817/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=2476798877424199817' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/2476798877424199817'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/2476798877424199817'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/05/tecun-uman-xela.html' title='Tecun Uman &amp; Xela'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ViVlDv5n6JI/Td2XoqizXYI/AAAAAAAAFKA/qmB6gT8hxHM/s72-c/IMG_4114.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-7916179188499318242</id><published>2011-05-24T09:01:00.005-05:00</published><updated>2011-05-24T22:33:42.678-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globtrotter'/><title type='text'>Huatluco, MX</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana;" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hRJ9EWoTRpg/Tdx2BATsDcI/AAAAAAAAFHg/UoUpdSdzfjs/s1600/Playa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 263px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hRJ9EWoTRpg/Tdx2BATsDcI/AAAAAAAAFHg/UoUpdSdzfjs/s400/Playa.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610488995431321026" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Czy ogladaliscie &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Y tu mama tambien&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt; ? To wlasnie w jednej z Zatok Huatulco (Bahia Maguey) krecono sceny na plazy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Szeroka, pusta, chcialoby sie rzec nawet dziewicza, a jakze, plaza Pacyfiku, bialy piasek, szumia fale, wysokie palmy, generalnie szmery bajery i bajka. Niestety Bahias de Huatulco dostaly sie w rece rzadu meksykanskiego i skutecznie gina. Zaplanowano tam kurort i basta. Bede wiec wysokie hotele, betonowe bulwary, sklepy i kina a takze smog, brud i trzysta tysiecy turystow miesiecznie i wysoki przychod. Dla najdalszych zatok jest jeszcze ratunek, droga jeszcze nie zostala doprowadzona, ciagle rozciaga sie tam park narodowy, a plaze sa relatywnie puste. Nie jest to jednak juz ten raj na Ziemii, do ktorego jechalem. Nie wiem, cholera mnie bierze jak widze ze na nizla plaze ktos prowadzi ohydne i ordynarne betonowe schody...A od tego juz krok zeby zamienic plaze w kolejne Cancun czy Acapulco.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Nie zrobilem nawet zadnych zdjec, bo czemu? Brudnej plazy oblepionej, inaczej tego nazwac nie mozna, bialymi krzeslami ogrodowymi? Wysypka ohydnych krzesel do tego charakterystyczne stoliki "z dziurka" ma parasol. jakby tego bylo maloto te obskurne baro-restauracje, skrzetnie skonstruowane z resztek blachy, folii, desek i sumiennie ozdobionych liscimi palmowymi. Sorry ale nasze miasteczka nadmorskie odpadaja w przedbiegach... Miasteczku? Szkoda gadac.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Czekalem tylko na to zeby wyjechac, wyjechac w strone Gwatemali. Najpierw 12 godzin autobusem a potem jeszcze 50 minut colectivo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Colectivo to nieznana u nas forma transportu. Formalnie to taki busik, ktory laduje ile ludzi sie zmiesci, lamie wszelkie przepisy drogowe, gna jak antylopa przez serpentynu gorskie, i zatrzymuje sie na kazde najmniejsze zadanie pasazerow i ludzi czekajacyhc na poboczach. Jakby to powiedziala generacja strasza ode mnie : Jazda bez trzymanki. Tak dotarlem do granicy z Gwatemala w Ciudad Hidalgo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;aha io i na wstepie zalaczam fotke Bahioas Huatulco sprzed lat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;CDN&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Have you ever seen &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Y tu mama tambien&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt; ? Well, if not if I say a beach by the Pacific cost you know what I mean. I had a really high expectation from The Bahias de Huatulco. And once again I am disappointed. It used to be amazing place with beautiful white, neat, sandy beaches, bit remote and virgin but for the last 12 or 15 years the government took care of that, in the worst possible way of course. So soon we will have "a proper resort, well this place deserves&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;to be a resort, doesn't it?" I can't wait beautiful skyscrapers, nice concrete promenades or huge malls ( well in fact the first one is already there).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt; The furthest bays may, eventually, still preserve its natural beauty but for most of them it is too late. Whatever. I am never getting back there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Time over there I spent rescheduling my trip and awaiting the bus to the border with Guatemala. It took me entire night to get to Tapachula and then 50 more minutes in a colectivo to go to Ciudad Hidalgo on the border with Guate ( I love this abbreviation). Where the story continues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;I should explain what colectivo is I believe. Well it is a fast and dangerous way of transport, it works more less like bus, but has no schedule and stops, so you can hop on and off whenever you want. But the most important is that colectivo is fast and fast and breaks all the traffic rules.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;TBC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-7916179188499318242?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/7916179188499318242/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=7916179188499318242' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/7916179188499318242'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/7916179188499318242'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/05/huatluco-mx.html' title='Huatluco, MX'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hRJ9EWoTRpg/Tdx2BATsDcI/AAAAAAAAFHg/UoUpdSdzfjs/s72-c/Playa.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-8712399125698629279</id><published>2011-05-23T19:40:00.007-05:00</published><updated>2011-07-28T20:44:19.006-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mexico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globtrotter'/><title type='text'>Dookola a nie wzdluz Ameryki Srodkowej/The Big Trip</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;I stalo sie. Nie wpuscili mnie na poklad! Frau, meda, szczerzuja, franca z niemieckich lini (?) lotniczych Conodr nie wpuscila mnie na poklad, ta fladra, orynarna bramaputra, samolotu z Frankfurtu do Panamy. Jak gdyby nigdy nic wziela moj bezcenny bilet i podarla na kawalki, mowiac: do Panamy obowiazuja bilety w dwie strony! (co jest nieprawda, trzeba miec jedynie bilet na dalsza podroz-np, autobusowy, ktory mialem!) Jak chcesz ( nie wiedzialem, ze jestesmy na ty!) to mozesz pobiec do sali C, masz jeszcze 15 minut moze zdazysz kupic bilet-mowi ta egzema. Moze.&lt;br /&gt;Nie mialem czasu na zastanawianie, nogi za pas i rura. A za mna slysze kolejne osoby czlapia i sapia... Ow mysle sobie nie ja sam. Jako prowadzacy peleton dotralem do kolejnej fistuli z linii lotniczych i ona powiedziala, ta walpurgia, ta grymala, ze nie sprzedaje biletow, ale jej kolega (WTF) z biura podrozy obok, moze mi sprzedac ( smierdzialo mi to i smierdzi grubym przekretem)... Nie moglem placic karte, bo a jakze. Gdy wrocilem z bankomatu stalo 6 innych osob z podobym problemem a samolot juz stratowal.&lt;br /&gt;Na szczescie(!) poznalem pare osob w tej samej sytaucji... Z pomoca Gosi ( niech Bog jej w dzieciach wynagrodzi), udalo mi sie kupic bilet na poranek dnia nastepnego do Mexico. Najtanszy bilet do Ameryki Centralej. Ehhh. Jeszcze kilka osob wybralo ten sam kierunek co ja... I spedzilismy mily wieczor na pustym lotnisku, przyspiajac na pasach bagazowych w oczekiwaniu na nasze plecaki.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moral: nigdy nie kupuj biletow od linii czarterowych a przede wszytskim wystrzegaj sie CONDOR-a.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do Ciudad de Mexico dolecialem po 40-godzinnej podrozy (sweet home Alabama). Wskoczylem do metra i dojechalem na TAPO, skad juz tylko 12 godzin do Huatulco. Po wielu godzinach podrozy wysiadlem w La Cruecita, o 10 rano, +32 i niebieskie niebo... CDN&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So... I am not in Panama, this daughter of the bitch, pendeja, didn't let me enter on board. Why? She was claiming that I should have a return flight ticket ( according to panameñan law I don't -bus, ferry is enough!). But she was stubborn. She tore my ticket (my precious!) apart saying it is not valid anymore! (WTFF). She told me to run to the ticket hall C and buy the return ticket. Grrr. In my flip flops with the backpack and the sunglasses from Filipa I run as fast as I could... and I am telling u the airport in Frankfurt is not small, not at all. Once I get to the fucking Condor fucking ticket desk the other bitch said she cannot sell any tickets but her friend from the travel agency yes. (WTF no.2) Ok, I said ok,  return from Panama... it was obviously more expensive than the one I had, I said whatever I just wanna go... and what? I couldn't pay with my card! So once again I run to the cash machine. When I got back the plane was already taking off... and by the counter there where 7 other disappointed ppl.&lt;br /&gt;In couple of hrs I bought the cheapest ticket to Central America - Mexico... thanks to Gosia, Skyscanner and the very patient guy form other travel agency. I convinced  guys to change destination from Panama to the cheapest ticket - Mexico ( as all backpackers count money).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reflexion: Never fly with any charter airlines, especially with fucking Condor!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To Ciudad de Mexico I arrived after 40hrs journey, I just jumped into bus to Huatulco.&lt;br /&gt;When I woke up in the morning I was already by the Pacific, it was bloody hot and humid. But...TBC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1006793959254440880-8712399125698629279?l=niekoniecznie.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/feeds/8712399125698629279/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1006793959254440880&amp;postID=8712399125698629279' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/8712399125698629279'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1006793959254440880/posts/default/8712399125698629279'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2011/05/dookola-nie-wzdluz-ameryki-srodkowejthe.html' title='Dookola a nie wzdluz Ameryki Srodkowej/The Big Trip'/><author><name>Adrian Krezlik</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='23' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FW_Pv_YDavo/Tb_tUFRuiuI/AAAAAAAAFCQ/Y2DNjikunq8/s220/aaa.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006793959254440880.post-5970570174204430404</id><published>2011-05-16T04:53:00.009-05:00</published><updated>2011-05-25T08:21:24.206-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Central America'/><title type='text'>Dookoła albo wzdłuż Ameryki Środkowej //The Big Trip</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VTNwKNOXQO0/TdNx98pMx6I/AAAAAAAAFHY/g6ULOXzNciM/s1600/map_central_america%2Bcopy.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 278px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VTNwKNOXQO0/TdNx98pMx6I/AAAAAAAAFHY/g6ULOXzNciM/s400/map_central_america%2Bcopy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5607951270071289762" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;anama w 1670 roku (...) była dużym, uroczym miastem, bogatym i silnym, słusznie nazywanym Złotą Czarą. Nie było takiego miejsca w całym Nowym Świecie, które mogłoby się z wówczas z nią równać urodą i bogactwem (...) na brzegu stała niewielka indiańska wioska o nazwie Panama. W miejscowym języku oznaczało to dobre miejsce do połowu ryb. Gdy hiszpańscy żołnierze przy tchnęli pochodnie od strzech i wybudowali w miejsce wioski miasto, zachowali starą nazwę Panama, która się utrwaliła. Nazwa ta znalazła uzasadnienie , gdyż wkrótce na wszystkie cztery strony świata zarzucano stąd hiszpańskie sieci. (...)Wszystkie starożytne bezcenne rzemiosła dotarły ostatecznie do Panamy, a tam trafiły do tygli, które przyjęły te lśniące smakołyki, zamieniając je na ciężkie sztaby złota. Magazyny zapełniły się złotymi polanami, w oczekiwaniu na służącą do przewozu skarbów flotę, która zawiezie je do Hiszpanii. Zdarzało się, że srebra ułożone warstwami spoczywały na ulicach z powodu braku miejsca w magazynach, dzięki swej wadze były jednak bezpieczne.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;A tymczasem miasto rozwijało się. Bogactwa ujarzmionych narodów wykorzystano, aby wybudować tysiące pięknych domów z czerwonymi dachami, z których każdy miał wewnętrzne patio, gdzie rosły rzadkie tajemnicze kwiaty. Wszystkie sztuki i luksusy starej Europy przybywały na zachód, by za garść złota dodać urody panamskim domom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;John Steinbeck, Złota Czara, tłum.

No place in all the raw New World could compare with it in beauty and in wealth.(...)on the shore, huddled a small grass village of the Indians, and its name was Panama. In the native tongue this signified a place of good fishing. When the soldiers of Spain put torch to the litter of huts, and in its place built a new town, they kept the old name, Panama, which is a song. And soon the meaning justified itself, for out of this little town the nets of Spain were flung to the four directions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;All the long workings, the craftsmanship in precious things, came at last to Panama, where the melting pots received them like glowing gourmands and transformed them to thick golden logs. The warehouses were piled high with the sticks of gold, waiting for the treasure fleet to sail for Spain. At times there were bars of silver tiered up in the streets for lack of warehouse room, but they were safe from thievery in their weight.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Meanwhile the city grew to be a glorious thing. The wealth of enslaved nations was put to building thousands of fine houses with red roofs and little inset patios where rare secret flowers grew. All the colored arts and comforts of old Europe flew westward to beautify the Panamanian houses at the call of golden lumps.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;John Steinbeck, Cup of Gold.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Tomorrow I start very long and exciting journey. My big plan is to go from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, but I have to do it in 2-3 parts. This time I will cross Central America starting form Panama and finishing in Mexico.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;I remember reading John Steinbeck's book Cup of Gold dreaming about going to Panama. Now my dream comes true.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;I want to learn about Central America. How is it now? What is the influence of USA on the countries? How is life in the happiest countries in the Globe? How is there?

I haven't been to many places for such a long time. Now, lukewarm, I can see more and different issues.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;We went to Łódź, Warszawa (Warsaw), Kraków (Cracow) and in the Tatra Mountains to Zakopane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Thanks  to my friends I realized that Poland is about history, about II World  War and communism. It is present in every city, in the town houses, squares, monuments, but what's more important in people memories and longings. History of Poland is  not only history of Poles.&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_Poland"&gt;&lt;u&gt; Jews&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt; used to create our culture, cites ( Łódź!), cuisine, tradition.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Well, the trip was also about food. About meat:  lard, shashlyk, sausages, blood pudding, bacon...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;I like &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Warsaw&lt;/span&gt;  a bit more, though I will never become a fun of the Centre (this would never and shouldn't be a polish Manhattan or whatever, we are not US or Shanghai). I always loved  Nowe Miasto. After years of struggle Nowy Świat and Krakowskie  Przedmieście look like a main street in European capital with unique slavish  atmosphere. My place in the city was and will be Praga,  disconnected and out of the way, authentic, if you listen carefully you can here bands playing &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pd0ScofLTGw"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Grzesiuk.&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;I never liked &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Kraków&lt;/span&gt;. It was so bohemian, so avant-garde, so Galician (as we say ironically in polish) and cliché...I had my favourite place- &lt;a href="http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2007/08/hakuna-matata.html"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Kazimierz&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,  which I still love...but unfortunately it gets more and more  commercial, touristic the spirit starts disappearing... I fell in love into Bazylika  Mariacka and it's deep ultramarine ceiling with golden stars and &lt;a href="http://wyborcza.pl/1,75475,7392654.html"&gt;Wit  Stwosz altar &lt;/a&gt;(as powerful as&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;The Garden of Earthly Delights). The interior is a masterpiece of craft. You can feel  slavish spirit in every single detail, in the colours used, in the  amount of light penetrating the interior through the stained glass, in  the textures used.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm;

I left the city in the sunny morning. I have never been that busy in my life - working, making friends, exploring the city, leaving and coming back, cycling, running, partying.

This is the place where urban fashion and trends (cloths, bikes, activities) begins, where the biggest marathon takes place, so you can see thousands ppl preparing running around the city all day and night long-running to the office and redressing, running along the river, in the park, along the Regent's Canal. Home to the top class museums, including my favourite tandem Tate Modern ( for exhibitions and for Herzog and Meuron design) and Tate Britain (for Late at Tate every first Friday of the month). City built by several smaller towns with my favourites Greenwich ( with King's Edward Collage where on Sunday afternoon you can listen classical music students rehearsing and just relax lying on the grass) and Shoreditch (where you eat bagels at three in the morning getting back from an outstanding secret loft party).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Sometimes accused of being temporary place and kindergarten-city, where bars are closed at 11 PM and you can't find restaurant's kitchen open after 9PM, and the last screening in the cinema starts at 8 PM.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;City of parks and squares with my favourites Greenwich and Hampstead Heath where you can admire the skyline of the city, with planes and helicopters all the time in the skies.

It was a bad joke visiting  it in the rain, though it was still impressive. I wonder how perfect it  must be during the summer time or film festival...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Olite&lt;/span&gt;  is a small, quiet, and charming town half an hour form Zaragoza. It has  everything you need for resting form bustle and clamor of the city, there is a nice castle, a main square, few restaurants and pubs, and  what's the most important bodegas and  vineyards with local wine grafts.  I had there the best lunch during my trip, in a place called &lt;a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&amp;amp;client=firefox-a&amp;amp;hs=Ato&amp;amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&amp;amp;prmd=ivnscm&amp;amp;resnum=1&amp;amp;bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&amp;amp;um=1&amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;amp;q=olite+restaurants&amp;amp;fb=1&amp;amp;hq=restaurants&amp;amp;hnear=Olite,+Spain&amp;amp;ei=MZq_TY6uAszHswaNkNHCBQ&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;oi=local_group&amp;amp;ct=image&amp;amp;resnum=1&amp;amp;ved=0CAQQtgMwAA"&gt;La Muralla&lt;/a&gt;, some borrajas and a good fish. If you ever stop there visit the Wine Museum and than go to Piedmonte and &lt;a href="http://www.piedemonte.com/inicio.htm"&gt;Ochoa&lt;/a&gt; wine shop.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:78%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Pamplona (Iruña) &lt;/span&gt;without bull racing is a tranquil city somewhere in north Spain. It has ( at least for me) two great things. The first is a cheap  and good wine ( I have a feeling I am slowly becoming an alcoholic or in a sommelier). The second is the night life, the people sitting on the squares  having pinxos/tapas and drinking wine; teenagers, students and grandmas:)&lt;br /&gt;If you ever visit the city don't miss hanging out in Ciudadela Park ( there is a similar one in Poznan, Poland  called &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pozna%C5%84_Citadel"&gt;Cytadela&lt;/a&gt; ...) green vast of land wrapped by the 500 years old wall...&lt;br /&gt;...and the Camino de Santiago goes through the city you can see, mostly, strange looking people with backpack and hiking sticks and... the shell But you'd better visit the city during San Fermin, the biggest party in Europe:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Expo 2008 and Zaha's Bridge in &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Zaragoza&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;"  &gt;It's  such a shame that Expo ground is abandoned now, thousand of square  meters of descent architecture and millions of euros wasted and Zaha's  bridge that is closed ( there is a bloody fence around, so to cross the  river you have to take the next one). Expo ground might have been very  nice, modernistic office  development, with great parkand an access to  the river, but it is a ghost city pretty like the &lt;a href="http://niekoniecznie.blogspot.com/2008/07/olympic-stadion.html"&gt;Olympic Village in  Athens.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:78%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donosti (San Sebastian)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: verdana;

( which rhymes)- &lt;i&gt;the life of Riley. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: verdana;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: verdana;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;The city never sleeps, or maybe it does, but for sure not in the nigh time. Well mid-day siesta is for sleeping, night is for meeting, drinking, partying, enjoying life. I clearly remember when I was studying in Germany a Spanish friend of mine asked me why streets are here so empty. Well, it was winter so I thought it is just too cold, windy, rainy. But just only now I realized what she meant. The &lt;i&gt;calles&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;avenidas&lt;/i&gt; are packed, from the dusk ( with perfectly dressed up grandmas buying a loaf of fresh bread or fish) to siesta and after siesta till the sun rise, bars and cafeterias are always full. &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Reina Sofia, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.museothyssen.org/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Thyssen-Bornemisza&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;, Prado are overwhelming, three top-end museums, almost next door. Frankly you can spend at least one day in each of them.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: verdana;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;I discovered &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Paintings"&gt;&lt;i&gt;pinturas negras&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt; by Goya in Museo del Prado. Dark, oppressive, frightening, ugly intense, haunting works...for sure not Goya style. Honestly they remind me more of Francis Bacon than any other Goya's contemporary painter. He executed this works in his seventies!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;a name="firstHeading"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;The Garden of Earthly Delights was  my next goal. I learned about this masterpiece from the movie by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lech_Majewski"&gt;Lech Majewski&lt;/a&gt; (which I sincerely recommend). The triptych is delirious, frenzy and powerful.  &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Reina Sofia is just stunning, both the collection and the building. My beloved Calder and his &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;mobiles,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt; Picasso's &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Guernica &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;and the extension of the museum with amazing maze of terraces and rooftops cover by purple semi-open canopy which creates a very unique atmosphere. Nouvel created this cosy and spacious terrace using the simplest elements and tools.

For me it was a big disappointment.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;You know this feeling when you go to the cinema and after seeing a movie you realize that everything was already in the trailer (Benjamin Button type). Nihil novil. In my case the same happened with Paris. I know how Eiffel Tower looks like ( though I thought it will be a bit taller) or Louvre and La Villette, Garniers Opera. I know the history, the Hausmann crap, who built what and when ... and I had to drew and knew everything at Uni...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;All I wrote down in my notebook where negative (!) feelings , but the Jardin du Luxembourg and Brut.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Jardin du Luxemburg is a fairytale in the middle of the congested and vibrant city, an oasis of peace. The beautifully regular and geometrical &lt;i&gt;french&lt;/i&gt; garden from 17th century with cute the pond for toy boats. Frederic Sofia Luxembourg Chairs are really comfy and look modern, so I couldn't believe that they were designed in 1923! (I was wondering how many Parisians have this chair in their gardens:)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Brut is just a sparking wine that contains no more than 1.5% sugar.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;And one more thing... People ( and i.e Justice , the band) where talking about the problem with the immigrants in France especially in exurbias of Paris, Frankly I thought French people like whining... I was shocked. London is as inhomogeneous as Paris, but I don't fear walking through Whitechapel or deep South London. Anyone can explain my the difference? Stereotyping I would say that Indians or Pakistani have different background - culture, religion and attitude, they are not dangerous and Algerian or Moroccan ( Arabic?) are.

I wanted to tell the stories behind them. Where was the picture taken? Why? How was there? Is it worth visiting? The supremacy of mass-media pop culture where news, stories, tragedies are told by picture is appalling. Paradoxically everything in here is a paean to the Image Culture.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"&gt; &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;I am starting my little rebellion on the trip to Sicily saying BASTA.

Michał called this the monthly sunshine dose which perfectly suits my attitude to this weekend brakes. After being asked where Sicily is, yes not everyone knows that ( and I am not so sure if everyone must know; Can you point, without hesitation, where Philippines are?) I decided to publish a map each and every time, to make sure everyone knows where were the pictures taken.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"&gt; &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;This was my second "trip" to Italy this year, and happily I am once again positively surprised. The weather, as for winter, was just &lt;span lang="en-GB"&gt;marvellous&lt;/span&gt;, sunny, blue skies, +16... I felt like in a summer time in London (!). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;During this 3 days I visited Trapani, Palermo, Catania and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;Syracuse&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"&gt; &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;Gelatti.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;PALERMO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;Don't go to Cuba, it is not worth visiting La Habana... Trust me. Palermo in it's spatial structure looks like Havana. The same, tall, narrow and cosy streets with fresh laundry hanging from balconies and loggias, the same neglected, falling apart splendid houses, kids running around, palm trees, cobblestone streets ( well If I analyse a bit longer I observe remarkable similarities between Palermo, La Habana and Odessa)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;It is such a shame, that the city is turned back from the Tyrrenhian Sea and you cannot go for mid-afternoon walk.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;CATANIA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;I went there because Giancarmelo told me:There is the Santa Agata festival,you must go there, this will be amazing experience.( and for the record my flatmate is Italian and Catanian). I was a bit sceptical - going to unknown city, not knowing anyone, for one day just to see religious festival and procession. ( not seeing actual city) There were fireworks at the very beginning, the procession started at Piazza del Duomo and lasted all night until midday...Men and some women in white gowns ( it used to be reserved for men only, but...) were pulling the rope attached to the altar with relic of Santa Agata or carrying monstrous 2-meters tall, massive, wax candles; there were stands with fried nuts with caramel and honey, sweets and all you would expect to buy during church fair. The city was paaaaacked. You couldn't possibly walk, I felt the tension, the excitement...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;Streets in Catania are made of black volcanic stones and oriented in a very particular way, the one going from north to south are finished with Etna or Sea view respectively. The volcano and the Sea used to determine the life of the people. In heathen times everyone was afraid of Volcano's rage, so on the main square they raised the statue of elephant made of volcanic rocks, which was supposed to calm it down.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;SYRACUSE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;I don't even know how to start. Imagine that in the middle of crappy, grey, sad winter you arrive to the splendid square, the sky is just blue, sun is shining and the shadows are strong once again, in the way you can easily read the line between shaded and exposed area, marble floor, white facades, window's shutters ...you can hear this kind of city rumour that I love, sound of people talking, chatting, laughing, kids screaming ( in other words no cars, planes, helicopters, honks).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;On the Piazza del Duomo there are two churches. Each one is more intriguing. When I entered the first one I though it is one of the late baroque churches with rich decoration and hideous interior.I couldn't be more wrong.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;The beautiful blending of architectural styles is evident in the internal aspects of the Cathedral. The Doric columns date from the days when a Temple of Athena stood on the site, but in the Seventh Century, when the first Christian church was built there, the columns were incorporated into its structure, linking the worship of the past, with the present. Your hear starts beating faster.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;On the other side of the piazza I enter to very modest 17th century church of Santa Lucia, which will be probably one of the Italian churches if there was not Caravaggio painting: Seppellimento di santa Lucia.You can just simply enter and have your time with the masterpiece and no one is going to disturb you. I had a feeling that is kind of intimacy with art is rare.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;Unfortunately the ruins of Greek Syracuse were closed during the winter time.... And that is a very good reason to come back.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;"&gt;All comments are welcome.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
