Včera jsme v prvním průsmyku v horách, na začátku oblasti postižené zemětřesením za městečkem Asni, náhodou narazili na skupinu českých turistů, vedenou legendarním poděbradským průvodcem po Maroku Oroňem. Ten byl dle svých slov v Maroku už 80x ...

Setkání nám hodně pozvedlo náladu. A Oroň nám slíbil v případě problémů po Whatsappu...

"Forests along Odra river" ("Lasy Odrzańskie") near city of Zielona Góra (Poland, Lubuskie region) are a beautiful location for long strolls and bicycle riding. Some gravel roads are available for motorized vehicles also - so I couldn't resist the opportunity to explore this area. #Poland #postcardsfromtheworld #tourism #travel #motorcycle #fuji #fujifilm #river #forest #nature #outdoor

"Le meraviglie della tradizione gelataia siciliana"

#aspassonellastoria

Si narra che nel maggio del 1860 quando Giuseppe Garibaldi e i suoi Mille, nella battaglia contro i Borbone, conquistarono Palermo per unirla all’Italia, il condottiero cercò ristoro in un piccolo bar e lo chef servì in suo onore un gelato coi tre colori della bandiera nazionale: così nacque "Il Giardinetto" un "pezzo duro" che, con i suoi tre strati di fragola, cedro e pistacchio, arricchiti di canditi, i colori dello spongato richiamavano quelli del Tricolore.

Da allora sono passati 164 anni, ma la storica gelateria Ilardo è ancora lì, che fa il suo gelato giardinetto

Despite putting up signs in multiple languages asking people to follow the rules, infractions – and complaints – haven’t let up. As a result, officials say they’ll set up a vinyl curtain, some 20 meters long and 2.5 meters high, to black out a popular photo spot for Mt. Fuji.

Yet another destination has had to take measures to deal with badly behaved tourists. Photography enthusiasts recently discovered that Fujikawaguchiko, in Japan's Yamanashi Prefecture, has a perfect vantage point to capture a shot of Mount Fuji in contrast to the neon sign of Lawson Convenience Store. To get the picture, they're parking without permission, blocking traffic, and even climbing onto buildings. Authorities have put up an eight-foot-tall barrier to try and curb their behavior. Here's more from Conde Nast Traveler.

Every time I visit this building, I KNOW that there is no way it could have been built today. This opulence is 100% due to the Gilded Age wealth class.
