  • The Best of Portugal Centuries
    05_181867 ch01.qxp 1/15/08 6:22 PM Page 4 1 The Best of Portugal Centuries ago, Portugal was a pioneer of worldwide exploration. Until recently, how- ever, it was never as successful in attracting visitors to its own shores. Outside of greater Lisbon, the Algarve, and the island of Madeira, Portugal remained unknown and undiscovered by the mainstream visitor for many decades. Today’s travelers are beginning to realize that Portugal was unjustly overlooked. It offers sandy beaches, art treasures, flavorful cuisine, a unique form of architecture (Manueline), charming handicrafts, a mild climate, moderate hotel rates, and polite and friendly people. Only 2 million annual visitors came to Portugal in the late 1970s. The number swelled to 20 million in the mid-1990s, and an explosion of hotel and resort building has kept pace. Today Portugal attracts some 22 million visitors annually. Despite its small size—225km (140 miles) wide and 612km (380 miles) long— Portugal is one of the most rewarding travel destinations in Europe. Exploring its towns, cities, villages, and countryside will likely take longer than expected because there is so much richness and variety along the way. The people, whose warmth is legendary, inhabit a land of extraordinary variety. You’ll see almond trees in the African-looking Algarve; cork forests and fields of golden wheat in Alentejo; ranches in Ribatejo; narrow, winding streets in the Alfama in Lis- bon; ox-drawn carts crossing the plains of Minho; and vineyards in the Douro. Azaleas, rhododendrons, and canna grow for miles on end; the sound of fado music drifts out of small cafes; windmills clack in the Atlantic breezes; sardine boats bob in the bays; and gleaming whitewashed houses glisten in the sun.

Enjoy a full day excursion from the Algarve coast to Ayamonte, Spain. We will visit one of the few tapas restaurants in Ayamonte. With its colorful decoration, the restaurants serve a great variety of tapas... General Overview Country: Portugal Type: Full Day Tour Private Region: Algarve Theme: Food, Wine Tours and Cultural Adventures City: Faro Group Size: 2 to 8 People Duration: Full-Day (Duration: 07h00 approx.) Price from: € Introduction The most common theory about the origins of the tapa is that it derived from a custom of covering (tapando) the wine glass with a piece of bread and pork, this way serving both at the same time. In order to really get to know authentic Spanish cuisine, one must try the ample and varied assortment of tapas offered in Spain. We can find picadillos (minced meat) or aliños (various seasoned meats), ensaladillas (version of Russian potato salad), papas aliñás (seasoned potatoes), tortilla de patatas (spanish potato omelet) and lorno mechado (loin strips). Under the hot (heated) tapa category the king is the pincho moruno. Know also as pinchitos, this typical andalusia snack is a mixture of a series of spices that season marinated pieces of chicken or pork. A tapas best ally is a Sherry wine; a manzanilla sherry or a amontillado (pale dry sherry), although the warm climate of Seville recommends a cool beer. Day by day itinerary DAY 1: ALGARVE - AYAMONTE (Spain) - ALGARVE - 09:00AM: Your chauffeur-guide will pick you up from your hotel in the Algarve - Departure from Algarve - Visit Ayamonte old quarter - We will visit one of the few tapas restaurants in Ayamonte.

Legoinha3 1 Departamento de Estratigrafía, Facultad de Ciencias Geológicas-UCM e Instituto de Geología Económica CSIC. Universidad Complutense. 28040-Madrid (España).

[email protected], [email protected]. Abstract: Detailed stratigraphic control and lateral tracing of facies between Praia da Rocha and the adjacent Praia do Vau evidenced that, although the thickness of layers remains essentially homogeneous, the internal composition, grain size and fossil contents change noticeably. Three orders of sequences were distinguished. Smaller-scaled sequences were produced by storms (event beds). Second order sequences are interpreted as generated by a Milankovitch forcing. The larger scale one is observed by the piling of subunits, with assumed eustatic forcing. The prevailing W/SW orientation of paleocurrents measured, and the overall model of dispersion systems, fit in an estuarine pattern of circulation during the Middle Miocene in the North-Betic Strait. Local, gentle diapiric up-warping between Portimão and Albufeira also contributed to water-depth and facies changes.
