Enfim trs anos de preparao na mui pacata cidade de Braga para uma aventura no Imprio do Meio e quia no seja atingida por um raio de luz vindo do pas do Sol Nascente. Muito se tem passado desde a entrad http://www.travelblog.org//Europe/Portugal/Central/Aveiro/blog-302895.html Oh my God I just realised I have been away from my blog for almost 6 months It8217s a record I wish I could say I have busy travelling but most of the time I have been working hard and receiving with a smile the pleasant surprises and twists that 2008 has brought me so far Let me recall I ended 2007 with a flash of luck I almost lost the train to Antwerp which luckily happened to be http://www.travelblog.org//Europe/Portugal/Central/Aveiro/blog-282649.html These are the pictures of the couple from dserbia who fell into the canal in Aveiro. http://www.travelblog.org//Europe/Portugal/Central/Aveiro/blog-148706.html I told you about the Mr. Bean movie very funny but also terrifying.

I can't hook up the cameral here so pictures will have to wait. Lots of sun and about 68 degrees I think. That's all for today. I've been walking all morning and want to go take a bath. I just wanted everyone to know I made it. One more city after thisthen Lisbon for 2daysNYC and home to breakup.
