My holidays 2006
(Sent by Josefa Luque Peña, a student from Santurtzi, Spain)

This summer I have not gone on holidays because I have been working, but last year I was in Portugal for fifteen days, from the sixth to the twentyieth of August. I travelled there whit three friends by car. We did the reserve reservation of  the hotels from here. We reserved hotel in three cities: Oporto, Lisboa and Figueira da Foz.

The first day I drove from Santurtzi to Oporto. We visited Ciudad Rodrigo and going to Portugal, we stopped to eat at Viseu. We arrived to in Oporto in the afternoon, we got to the hotel and we left the suitcases. Then we went to see the city at night. The next day my friends and I saw the city on a tourist bus.

The after following days we were visiting the different countries: Guimaraes, Braga, Aveiro, but always coming to the hotel in Oporto at night.

The fifth day we went of the from Oporto from to Lisboa. On the way we stopped to see the monastery Batalha, it is very beautiful. Also we stopped in Fátima, and last we went to see the temple castle in Tomar. The weather was very hot there.

When we arrived to in Lisboa we sat down in the terrace of a bar and drank a large glass of beer.

For six days we went in Lisboa, we wanted to see all the city. We travelled by tranvía, by metro and on foot.
