FOR THE RECORD...

FROM NOVEMBER 2000 THROUGH DECEMBER 2003

The last post concludes the period from November 2000, when the digital photo era started, through December 2003. Though there were many trips recorded, a lot of them left no trace at all, at least in the photo mode. So, the only way to have a memory of these times is to register them here. This is the purpose of this post. And here they are:

- December 2000: Lisbon, London, Oslo, Paris, Bogota, Cartagena de las Indias (a superb old town within the walls), Miami, London, Lisbon. Some videos were made, but the only photos available are from the meeting held in Cartagena... Here it is one:



- March 2001 - Brussels. No photos, no videos...
- April 2001 - Hong-Kong and Macau. Some videos...
- May 2001 - Vienna. No photos, no videos...
- May 2001 - Amsterdam. Nothing...
- June 2001 - Twice in Paris. Nothing...
- September 2001 - Paris. Nothing...
- September 2001 - Lisbon, Zurich, Sao Paulo, Santa Cruz de La Sierra, Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Lisbon. The only memory from this periple is the group photo of the meeting in Santa Cruz de La Sierra, Bolivia...



- September 2001 - Brussels. Nothing...
- October 2001 - Luxembourg. Nothing...
- October 2001 - Washington, DC. I found some photos and create a new post with some of them - WASHINGTON D.C. AFTER 9/11...

- November 2002 - Cyprus. I found some photos and created a new post - Cyprus, Mystery Island - which was included in cronological order...
- November 2002 - Brussels...
- January 2003 - Brussels and Bruges. I found some photos and created a new post - LE PLAT PAYS...- which was also included in cronological order...

And that's all. But it's a lot isn't it?
Actually I'm definitely missing some of this travelling...

BRASIL, BONITO POR NATUREZA...

STOPOVER IN S. PAULO, WITH A SHORT ONE DAY TRIP TO A MEETING IN BRASILIA

MARCH 2001

This post is a small hommage to a great travel destination. It was caused by a comment introduced by Magda on the post "España, Por tierras de Castilla - I". The bulk of the Brazilian pictures will be shown at "Blogtrotter Revival - The 90's". Wait to see!

SÃO PAULO: not my favourite Brazilian city!



"SÃO PAULO - Floresta de betão Vista do Hotel Mofarrej, de manhã cedo e a meio do dia"


"CATEDRAL DA SÉ - Iniciada a construção em 1913, a catedral, em estilo gótico modificado, só foi concluída 40 anos mais tarde"


"UNIVERSIDADE"


"TRIBUNAL"


"SUNTORY - Situado num edifício desenhado em perfeito estilo arquitectónico japonês, o Suntory representava a excelência em conforto e cozinha japonesa. À entrada há um jardim Zen (na foto).
Parece que mudou de direcção e que, agora, se chama SHINTORY..."


"SUNTORY - Sushis, sashimis, teppanyakis, shabu-shabus (and tempura - na foto) são saboreados em diferentes salas. Mas era tudo magnífico"

BRASILIA


"CATEDRAL - Desenhada por Oscar Niemeyer, foi construída em homenagem à padroeira da cidade, Nossa Senhora da Aparecida, e inaugurada em 1967. Um espanto, e tem capacidade para quatro mil pessoas..."
