You got right PMP, Italy has 2 faces...the first wit the shores, the sun, the hills and the waters.

Or city like Rome, witness of probably the most important civilization in history.

The colosseum is almost 2000 years old.

And the second with the suburbs full of drugs, prostitution, criminals, illegal immigrants, corruption

This is the second face of Rome

My town was founded by the Romans , Its was the crossing of two trade routes . Ill show pictures of the ruins Lucas forefathers left behind

Well, as I promised:

Yesterday's school trip to Congonhas, on the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.

note: the pics are very large, so I decided to use thumbnails:















Now, another pics:



This is the "Lençois Maranhenses". The reason for this name is because they are located in the state of Maranhão, and it looks like blankets of water.



"Sertão Nordestino"



"Floresta Amazônica" Note: we do not live in forests!



"Pico da Bandeira"



Now, Rio de Janeiro has also two sides: Here you can see "Favela da Rocinha". There are lots of drug deals, shootouts between criminals and cops, etc.



And this is "Cristo Redentor"



"Copacabana beach"

If you think those images are too big, tell me and I'll remove em.

As I watch here, I realized that architectural differences boarder is between Germany and Poland. Also that is what I noticed on my Euro trip, but then I had no time to think about it. As I see now the pictures of Netherlands and Italy, they are quite same look as German houses.

wooooo come to Minas Gerais, my state. Although there is no beach, there are a lot of historical places to visit .D it would be a good class about the colonization from Portugal over Brazil.
And I have an extra room here

Asturias, Spain

Typical Asturian Countryside:



"El Tranqueru" Beach in Xivares:



Cudillero, an example of the many seafing villages that Asturias has:



A roman bridge at the entrance of Cangas de Onis



Covadonga Cathedral.



The Mining Museum, the mining played an important role in my region for many years.



Oviedo Cathedral. At the top is "La Cruz de la Victoria" (The Cross of the Victory), an important Asturias' symbol.

The Maeslant Storm Surge Barrier

Coincidence? I don't hope so, but this barrier closed for the first time since it was built, 2 days after I posted it

[Dave]

there is a flaw in the contruction of the barrier, if u look at ur second pic, inbetween the 2 barriers, there is a small gap.....
