Travelog post for: Mumu

Go to full travelog

Santa Maria, Azores, Portugal - 23rd August 2008

By: Penvmbra

After traveling in a car for the first time in her life, Mumu went to Penvmbra's place and met toy voyagers who  told her how amazing it was to travel to other people's houses and be their guests.

With Migui+Gui and Margarida she learn a bit about the island where she used to live:

But to stay at home was a pity with one of the best beaches in the world by our side:

The beaches aren't too big, but the sand is like velvet, the water is very clean and the air very pure :)

One day she went to Maia, a small place by the sea, and she found these ducks living there freely:

She found this baby is soooo cute  :cyclops:

The sunset:

Those are typical tools used in the ancient times: the mill wheels and the jars to store food and drink:

In this place Cristopher Colombus stoped on his way to Europe, after discovering America:

In these islands there is a tradition of serving a special soap in honor of the Holy Spirit.
The soap is served for free to anyone who wants to come in and is made like in the ancient times, with home made bread and meat from the cows of the people there:

It is amazing to be surrounded by sea:
