Costa Nova and Aveiro

Costa Nova, Aveiro, Portugal

(Summer vacation, August 2010)

You know how I was missing, not only our mountains, but also our pretty beaches...

So, this year's choice, "para matar saudades", was Costa Nova, nearby Aveiro...

We went also to the beautiful city of Aveiro with its canals and Art Nouveau buildings and we took a boat trip in a typical Moliceiro ...

Ah, this is Aveiro, Portugal, not Almere, Netherlands...;-)
