Let's start&lt;strong&gt; by Japan, &lt;/strong&gt;where the national currency is the&lt;strong&gt; yen&lt;/strong&gt;. It is important to mention that 1 yen is equivalent to 0.01 dollars. As for the coins circulation we find coins with values of 500, 100, 50, 10, 5 and 1 yen. As curious fact, we tell you that the coins of 5 and 50 yenes have a small hole in the way that serves to distinguish them from the others. Also it is important to emphasize that although it is true that the coins of 500 continue in circulation, every time they are used less. Do not hesitate to take to house any currency as souvenir since the persons are great collectors of coins who want to preserve a Japanese currency. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; As for the tickets we can find values of 10,000, 5,000, 2,000 and 1,000 yenes. As for the exchange of foreign currencies, you must know that you can change your dollars or euros to yenes into the offices of the principal banks of the Japanese cities. Also there can be done changes of traveler's checks. It is important to emphasize that in many establishments there are accepted credit cards as American Express, the MasterCard, Diners Club and the Visa. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; If you are going to travel in the direction of&lt;strong&gt; Israel,&lt;/strong&gt; you must know that his national currency is the Shekel and that it has circulating as such from the year 1985. The current change of 1 shekel is equivalent to 0.26 dollars. It will be interesting to you to know as well as every new Shekel splits into 100 agorot. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/604304952328047113-8777599485178385815?l=xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/feeds/8777599485178385815/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/12/mints-of-asia-yenes-and-shekels.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/8777599485178385815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/8777599485178385815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/12/mints-of-asia-yenes-and-shekels.html' title='Mints of Asia: Yenes and Shekels'/><author><name>dawn kenney</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-604304952328047113.post-1772608274906268698</id><published>2009-12-12T13:58:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-12T13:58:37.978-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Rural tourism in the outskirts of Barcelona</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt; Today we have decided to travel round the&lt;strong&gt; peoples of Catalonia and &lt;/strong&gt;visitr the surroundings of the Bohemian Spanish city&lt;strong&gt; of Barcelona. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5278" title="cataluña" src="http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/3505/22fbba5b9fc6d796d95d5e7.jpg" alt="cataluña rural Tourism in the outskirts of Barcelona" width="345" height="225" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; If it is a question of knowing natural places, we can speak with direction to&lt;strong&gt; Monserrat &lt;/strong&gt;that is located to the North-East of the city.

If you did not know it, it is a question of a plane created by the company Vladivostok Air and produced by Air Koryo and Cuban of Aviation. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5274" title="aviones3" src="http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/3112/e1778c06fccbefa5293bc6d.jpg" alt="aviones3: What are the planes most emphasized from the world?" width="500" height="348" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; It is possible to find his models from half of the 90s, being thought&lt;strong&gt; 757 &lt;/strong&gt;of North American origin an alternative equivalent to the outstanding figure&lt;strong&gt; Boeing&lt;/strong&gt;. Between his ideal factors as regards the technical points there is the low consumption of resources, scarce level of noise and a minimal operational cost.

It is known like the biggest commercial plane of the world, having the possibility of lodging diverse interior ambiences available for the entertainment of his passengers. This big plane presents also a big cost for every passage that they present, of course, to be inside him is a luxury to be able to remember it for all your life.

   &lt;strong&gt; How many mishaps &lt;/strong&gt;take place when we must support the delay of our flight; nothing seems to shape us nor to attenuate our annoyance because he supposes a wasting time and money that nobody seems to consider. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="size-full wp-image-5269 aligncenter" title="pasajeros-avion" src="http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/2976/6de3bf15cfa9adaa03a6699.jpg" alt="passengers plane The airlines will have to indemnify the passengers for debts of more than three hours" width="450" height="260" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; But from this Thursday, the Court of Justice of the European Union (TUE) has sat an important precedent with a mistake that he benefits with an&lt;strong&gt; indemnification, to the passengers who suffer a delay of three or more hours i&lt;/strong&gt;n extraordinary circumstances. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Depending on the distance of the trip, the community regulation was compensating with a total from 250 to 600 euros in case of flight cancellation but the regulation was not contemplating by no means the damage caused to the air passengers in case of delays. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The new disposition answers to a demand raised before the German and Austrian justice, interposed by passengers of Condor and Air France respectively, who should have endured debts of 25 and of 22 hours with regard to the hour of due arribo. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The court has understood that in these cases, the damage is similar to that of a cancelled flight and therefore he authorizes the same indemnification that corresponds to those. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The indemnification will not become effective if&lt;strong&gt; the airline &lt;/strong&gt;verifies that the delay owes to extraordinary circumstances that escape to his control, considered to be inevitable. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Route:&lt;a href="http://www.intereconomia.com/noticias-gaceta/sociedad/las-aerolineas-retrasos-mas-tres-horas-deberan-indemnizar"&gt;

The price of the ticket, also, is something cheaper than that of the trains. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Also it is possible to take a taxi, although they receive a very high price compared to the bus, for example, or to rent a transport deprived between several persons so that the price goes out more economic.

As the port of Liverpool was very close, many came to Manchester across him. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Speaking about the port of the city of The Beatles, so that there were coming to Manchester the coal, the cotton and the rest of prime matters of a more rapid way, in the year 1761 the&lt;strong&gt; Bridgewater channel &lt;/strong&gt;was constructed so that both cities were remaining connected. Some years later, it was possible to go of one city to other one quickly also thanks to the railroad line created to join them. Reina Victoria was the manager of inaugurating at the end of the XIXth century, in 1894 to be more exact, the Manchester Ship Canal, thanks to which manchester turned into marine port. This way, as we have already mentioned in advance, this city of England turned into the first industrial metropolis of western the whole world. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The urban center had to be regenerated because the IRA made to exploit a bomb in June, 1996 by what areas were created comercialies and of free time for the enjoyment of the citizens the visitors. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Photo route:&lt;a href="http://www.stefanomolinari.com" target="_blank"&gt; Stefano Molinari&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/604304952328047113-3668955504625152557?l=xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/feeds/3668955504625152557/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/12/manchester-3.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/3668955504625152557'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/3668955504625152557'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/12/manchester-3.html' title='Manchester (3)'/><author><name>dawn kenney</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-604304952328047113.post-7447477097877570956</id><published>2009-12-04T22:25:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-04T22:26:00.120-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Archaeological tourism in Peru and Colombia</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt; Today we have decided to practise&lt;strong&gt; archaeological tourism&lt;/strong&gt;. We will initiate our trip i&lt;strong&gt;n Peru, &lt;/strong&gt;where we can travel with direction&lt;strong&gt; to Chavín de Huantar, &lt;/strong&gt;which was the ancient capital of an ancient pre-Columbian culture known as Chavín. Undoubtedly this archaeological place is one of the most emblematic of the country. To know it we must go to the Huari province, in Ancash. It is important to emphasize that this place was discovered in the year 1919 by Julio C. Tello considered the father of the national archaeology. Do not lose the opportunity to know a very important place of one of the first civilizations of Ancient Peru. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5196" title="arqueo2" src="http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/306/657660ac107b672eec40ada.jpg" alt="arqueo2 Archaeological Tourism in Peru and Colombia" width="268" height="400" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Perhaps more famous and visited is the citadel&lt;strong&gt; of Machu Picchu, &lt;/strong&gt;a few legendary ruins located in Cuzco. It is important to emphasize that it is possible to come so far from two forms, one and the most rapid, across a trip in train; another possibility is a much more adventurous experience since it is possible to realize across a trekking route for the Inca's Ways. It is worth while mentioning that this place considered one of the most enigmatic of the world was discovered in the year 1911 by Hiram Bingham. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5197" title="arqueo3" src="http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/1623/3e56970300fd28ee86d1b2a.jpg" alt="arqueo3 Archaeological Tourism in Peru and Colombia" width="405" height="366" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Seguidamente we can go in the direction of&lt;strong&gt; Colombia,&lt;/strong&gt; a country rich in culture and history. Here we can discover certain pre-Hispanic traces in his archaeological parks where there stands out&lt;strong&gt; Tierradentro &lt;/strong&gt;that is an archaeological reservation that is part of the patrimonies of the humanity from the year 1995.

For example, the visit to&lt;strong&gt; Taj Mahal Palace and Tower &lt;/strong&gt;that on November 26, 2008 was a target of a terrorist attack that lasted three days and included to also to other hotels occupied by foreign tourists. The&lt;strong&gt; coffee Leopold &lt;/strong&gt;also is part of the itinerary and it was attacked for being the stronghold of tourists and businessmen of all parts of the world. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; In 2003, a taxi bomb exploded close to the&lt;strong&gt; Portal of the India &lt;/strong&gt;but the stage of the offenses spread to, at least, half a dozen of other places that today constitute the milestones of a macabre tour. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; A tourism of the illness they say some, a way of exorcizing the horror, they will say others.

We &lt;/strong&gt;are going to begin the trip for&lt;strong&gt; Dahuk,&lt;/strong&gt; a city that settles in the north area of the country, close to the border with Turkey. Of narrow but very clean streets, Dahuk is a city where we will find variety of markets as well as hotels and restaurants for all the pockets. One of his most tourist places is undoubtedly the ancient mosque as well as the Folkloric Museum. In the outskirts of the city we find spectacular cataracts as well as ancient temples. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4919" title="irak2" src="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/3631/5e0a8f81d9d851380dbb51e.jpg" alt="irak2 Traveling round Iraq" width="500" height="333" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; It is important to mention, if you think to travel inside the city that the&lt;strong&gt; taxis &lt;/strong&gt;have a tariff minor average to 10 dollars or 3,000 dinars. Of course, you must know that along the area many soldiers go along, so you are not scared, but yes you must take certain precautions. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4920" title="irak3" src="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/6803/cfbeb4d9b5c586ed4cffa80.jpg" alt="irak3 Traveling round Iraq" width="481" height="326" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; It is our turn to direct us to&lt;strong&gt; Irbil,&lt;/strong&gt; a Kurdish locality that according to the travelers, has very little that to see with Iraq and is that his aspect is very different from other cities. It costs to sorrow to mention that in this area there can be a series of archaeological traces that are considered to be a patrimony of the humanity. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4921" title="irak4" src="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/6933/1eef48fb84346ce1a84037c.jpg" alt="irak4 Traveling round Iraq" width="500" height="281" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Also we can go in the direction of&lt;strong&gt; Rowanduz,&lt;/strong&gt; a people that is located in the Soran locality. It is a question of a city that settles close to the limit with Iran, and that offers to the traveler a series of natural places to enjoy as well as prehistoric caves.

The history counts that this church was built by the architect Francisco Becerra, in the year 1598, and for it he emphasizes his Renaissance style. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Another place to practise religious tourism is the&lt;strong&gt; Convent of Santo Domingo &lt;/strong&gt;that is considered to be one of the most ancient temples of the city. His architecture is quite harmonic, and a byline of the year 1606. It is worth while mentioning that to her interior we find the grave of Santa Rosa of Lima that as well you know she is the boss of the city and of America. The walks to this holy grave are possible. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Seguidamente we can go in the direction of the&lt;strong&gt; Church of San Francisco &lt;/strong&gt;that is in fact a monumental convent, which from the year 1988 is considered to be a historical patrimony on the part of the UNESCO. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; In the center of Lima the air is still breathed virreinal and in his streets we can find still ancient large houses as the&lt;strong&gt; House Gorse &lt;/strong&gt;that formerly was a luxurious mansion, which is considered to be one of the most ancient houses of continent.

To discover fabulous cities and big green spaces of fertile cultivation, perhaps for it him considered like Isla Esmeralda. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4871" title="irlanda" src="http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/6879/d047c3f48ba3455f475c11e.jpg" alt="irlanda Ireland and his strange sceneries" width="415" height="332" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; In this occasion we have decided to initiate our route in one of his most impressive&lt;strong&gt; sceneries&lt;/strong&gt;. We refer to&lt;strong&gt; the Cliffs of Moher or Cliffs of Moher, &lt;/strong&gt;which settle opposite to the sea. It talks each other of a natural area 230 meters high (considered like more high places of the country) that has several kilometers of extension where from it is possible to appreciate the sea. To know it we must go towards the locality of The Burren. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4872" title="irlanda2" src="http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/4640/df017e9b5b24a1ea0eff412.jpg" alt="irlanda2 Ireland and his strange sceneries" width="500" height="375" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Seguidamente we can go in the direction of&lt;strong&gt; the Roadway of the Giant who &lt;/strong&gt;is an area considered a natural marvel. They talk each other of neither more nor less than 40 thousand columns of basalt that settle in Northern Ireland, specially in County of Antrim. It is worth while mentioning that in spite of not being the only ones of this type in the world, yes they are the most impressive. It will be interesting to you to know that this natural monument took place due to a volcanic eruption. If you are or fanatic of the strange sceneries you cannot allow coming here. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4873" title="irlanda3" src="http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/3397/51276672fb4f8a502c8c1d6.jpg" alt="irlanda3 Ireland and his strange sceneries" width="500" height="375" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; It is time to travel&lt;strong&gt; towards Newgrange located &lt;/strong&gt;in the Vale Boyne, specially in Louth. It is a question of a pagan cemetery or a prehistoric funeral ambience that dates thousands of years ago behind, there are those who make sure that it has more than 5,000 years of antiquity.

Since well you know in this autonomous region we can practise rural tourism across his charming peoples and localities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4864" title="huesca" src="http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/3783/7be0e00a165d95909013c50.jpg" alt="huesca Covering the Old town of Huesca" width="492" height="369" /&gt;    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; We will initiate our route in&lt;strong&gt; Huesca,&lt;/strong&gt; a city recognized by his hospitality. First of all we must realize a walk along his city center, a place that a valuable millennial history preserves in his streets, archaeological remains, and historical buildings. For example we can begin by the&lt;strong&gt; Cathedral of Huesca,&lt;/strong&gt; which was constructed on an ancient Roman temple and a Moslem mosque. This religious temple stands out for his Gothic and Renaissance structure. It is worth while mentioning that was constructed during the reign of Jaime I of Aragon, and that from the year 1931 is considered to be an artistic historic monument of the country. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4866" title="huesca2" src="http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6850/be983a3f00db1674fe3289d.jpg" alt="huesca2 Covering the Old town of Huesca" width="450" height="300" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Seguidamente we can go towards the&lt;strong&gt; Church San Pedro Old man &lt;/strong&gt;who also settles on an ancient Roman temple. It is worth while mentioning that his architecture is clearly Romanesque and that it dates of the XIIth century. If you want to keep on practising religious tourism, then you can visit the churches of San Vicente, the St Lawrence and San Miguel. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4867" title="huesca3" src="http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/2608/5a0cfa07af33def7d3d1ec5.jpg" alt="huesca3 Covering the Old town of Huesca" width="500" height="376" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Now let's know the&lt;strong&gt; Municipal Park Miguel Servet,&lt;/strong&gt; considered the biggest of the whole city. It is worth while mentioning that here we will find a series of statues as well as pigeons. Undoubtedly this wide natural space is considered as and lung of the city.

The sail also was so that the malignant spirits were not bothering. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The Trick-or-treat or trick or dealing is different of the traditions that are celebrated during the night of October 31. His origin is the need for the spirits for taking to the world of the dead persons earthly things. But between the spirits there was one villain who was asking by means of the &amp;quot;trick-or-treat&amp;quot; for things the peasants. The best thing as the legend was to do the dealing because if not the malignant one would use his powers to throw a madición against the house and those who in her were living. Ésto has turned that the disguised children ask for caramels for the houses. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; That thing about the &amp;quot;treat&amp;quot; also has derived in that instead of that it is a dealing, the children if they do not receive caramels do a trastada or prank, a &amp;quot;treatening&amp;quot;. Like that, many are those who throw shaving foam for the houses, they throw eggs to the cars and to the housings, balloons of flour, etc. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Photo route:&lt;a href="http://www1.cs.columbia.edu" target="_blank"&gt; CS Columbia&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/604304952328047113-7953879001920325537?l=xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/feeds/7953879001920325537/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/11/halloween-5.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/7953879001920325537'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/7953879001920325537'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/11/halloween-5.html' title='Halloween (5)'/><author><name>dawn kenney</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-604304952328047113.post-7323125346108243013</id><published>2009-11-12T09:46:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-12T09:46:09.693-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Halloween (4)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4845" title="Cartel de HAlloween de 1904" src="http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/4038/0ca4d83e163129df6aca29c.jpg" alt="Cartel of HAlloween of 1904" width="191" height="300" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; In spite of, since we have said, to have bequeathed the United States in 1840 and to begin taking root a few years later, was not until 1921 when the celebration begun being celebrated throughout the country.

Any fire that existed in the houses, with the exception of those of the chimneys, there were going out and were sacrificing themselves some animals which bones were thrown straight to these embers, those of the chimneys. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Speaking about animals, it is necessary to say that the Sanhaim was something more than everything what till now we have mentioned, since also it was the day in which the Celts were useful to realize the balance of all the food that they had, fruit of his harvests in general, and of the cattle this way to prepare themselves to spend the hard and cold winter.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; And, those persons who were thinking that they had talent divinatory, usually put them into practice during the Sanheim using also food and drinks for it, being his relatives and vecinoes the guinea pigs.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Photo route:&lt;a href="http://parenting.leehansen.com" target="_blank"&gt; Parenting Leehansen&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/604304952328047113-4814358922678357756?l=xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/feeds/4814358922678357756/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/11/halloween-2.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/4814358922678357756'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/4814358922678357756'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/11/halloween-2.html' title='Halloween (2)'/><author><name>dawn kenney</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-604304952328047113.post-6071017243635726545</id><published>2009-11-11T07:37:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-11T07:37:58.975-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Halloween (1)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4833" title="Fantasma de Halloween" src="http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/4818/107ae07f2ead2d3a93731af.jpg" alt="Bogey of Halloween" width="294" height="300" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The Anglo-Saxons, the estadunidenses especially, have a tradition every October 31. We speak about&lt;strong&gt; Halloween,&lt;/strong&gt; this holiday in which the pumpkins remain pansies and are illuminated by a sail, the children go out to the street disguised and with his “trick or dealing” they ask for caramels for the local communities, the terror movies splashes the publicity boards and the chains … All this have taught it to us in the movies and series of television, but: where from did Halloween arise? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The origin of this festivity is Celtic, specifically the Sanhaim word that derives from the Gaelic or ancient Irish and whose meaning is “a summer end”. It was the most important pagan holiday of the whole Europe up to the spread of the Christianity. The Sanheim was celebrating the end of the period of the harvests and also the New Year, which was always starting with that the Celts were calling dark station. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The ancient Celts believed that there is a line that it joins to this world with Further away and that whenever the Sanhaim was celebrated, this line was joining more and more, therefore the good and bad spirits could cross it. For ésto, they began remembering and offering homage to the spirits of his already deceased relatives, while they were trying to remove it further possibly to the spirits of malignant character. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Photo route: I&lt;a href="http://www.voyaprenderingles.com" target="_blank"&gt; am going to Learn English. &lt;/a&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/604304952328047113-6071017243635726545?l=xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/feeds/6071017243635726545/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/11/halloween-1.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/6071017243635726545'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/604304952328047113/posts/default/6071017243635726545'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xcruiseseuropaf.blogspot.com/2009/11/halloween-1.html' title='Halloween (1)'/><author><name>dawn kenney</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-604304952328047113.post-9119645825869304930</id><published>2009-11-10T21:54:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-10T21:54:30.245-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Phatthalung (2)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;  &lt;img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4821" title="Parque Tha-le Noi, Phatthalung" src="http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/4052/95711e9a24a5d80128d949f.jpg" alt="Park Tha - Him Noi, Phatthalung" width="250" height="236" /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The sights in this province of&lt;strong&gt; Thailand &lt;/strong&gt;are those that we explain next: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; - &lt;strong&gt; Tham Khuha Sawan: It i&lt;/strong&gt;s a cave in whose interior they can turn several images of the god Buddha.
