Back to school - cool binders for teachers!


Make a 3 ring binder at zazzle
Hello everybody!
It has been a while since my last showcase. My sister teaches Portuguese and English and has started organizing everything as classes will soon restart after the summer break. Binders were pilling on her desk last time I visited! That gave me the idea for this showcase -cool school binders for teachers to plan and organize their lessons and notes!

These are my favorite Teacher School Binders from Zazzle!

I hope you enjoy my selection.

Afternoon at the beach of Figueira da Foz









Yesterday I took an hour and went to the beach in the afternoon. The summer end is fast approaching and so I try to enjoy the last warm days every minute I can. With the start of school next 13th September, most families with children are no longer at the beach. The background noise is different. The light is different. Now everything is more quiet and slow at Figueira da Foz beach. On photo number four you can see a lifeguard talking to some boy surfers about the sea conditions. Lifeguards dress in red and yellow. On photo number five there's a man dressed in white with a container. He sells bolacha americana, literally, it means American wafer(or cookie?!). It's thin and crispy like the one on the photo below. (That last photo isn't mine because I always eat the waffle before I remember to click the machine...!) These men walk the beach all day long selling bolacha americana and some are witty and say funny things to catch people's attention and often they make people laugh. Paulo, a 50-year-old man, is the most famous. I can't offer you the recipe of bolacha americana because it is a well-kept secret! Some prefer to sell Bolas de Berlim - a traditional round cake from Portugal, similar to Berliner in Germany and Sonho in Brazil. Another variation served in the UK is Custard Donut. Ice-creams are also sold by these men and the most famous Portuguese brand is OLÁ. After 15th September fewer persons will show up at the beach. These men disappear and the fishermen will take their place on the sand staring the sea for hours while they wait for the fish to bite! Then I will say goodbye to the sea too, I'll wash my beach towel and bikini for the last time and prepare to feel miserable. This will happen around the last week of September! This weekend we can expect rain but next Wednesday the sun will, fortunately, shine again!

Google remembered Lisbon first electric tram aniversary!


Since 1998 Google creates special logos, called doodles to celebrate holidays, birthdays and special events. This one came out on August 31st and celebrates the first electric tram 110th anniversary. If you visit Lisbon or Oporto you can still watch these vehicles on the street. In Lisbon, they are driven through narrow streets, up and down the city’s hills. The most famous is the tram 28. They are cute and quite a tourist attraction! I have to say I never traveled in it! But I want too! Don't miss the video where you can watch trams and tour some beautiful Lisbon spots and monuments while you listen to lovely guitar music...enjoy!(You can check this page if you want to discover more Google doodles.)

I made a cardboard castle for my nephew!



My nephew turned 9 yesterday and I made him this cardboard castle and a postcard with it too. Imagine his face when he realized that the postcard image was, in fact, a REAL castle! To make a child happy is one of the most wonderful feelings one can experience!

Travel+Leisure on S. Bento's (Oporto) railway station






Travel+Leisure picked the 16th most beautiful railway stations in the world. S.Bento's Oporto railway station made the list. You know, a list is just a list made by people. But most buildings picked are really awesome. You can check it here.


"While the exterior is certainly beautiful—and brings to mind 19th-century Parisian architecture with its mansard roof and stone façade—it is the front hall that will make you gasp. The walls are covered with 20,000 splendid azulejo tin-glazed ceramic tiles, which took 11 years for artist Jorge Colaço to complete."
