“Green Tea” (Japan) – Pictures via wikipedia
Did you know:
“The name of the (Kit Kat) chocolate bar resembles a Japanese expression – “kitto katsu” – used by students to wish each other luck before exams.
The phrase has been translated roughly as: “I hope you will win.” ”

Mehrsprachige Tomaten
” …
Ich lache und drehe mich schnell um mich selber
bis mir schwindelig wird und ich Tag und Nacht
oben und unten dich und mich verwechsele
– so schnell so betrunken –Nachts singe ich im Schlaf so schräg
wie mir der Mund steht
morgens gähne ich
so weit so tief so hoch
daß Tomaten in drei Sprachen hineinpassen
Mittags
bäume ich mich auf unter der Sonne
die meine mühselige Schrift aus Schokolade
langsam in sich hineinfraß…”

One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to, is a little palace-like thing in Cascais (near Lisbon).
We discovered it after sunset, near fullmoon… – it’s at the harbour, by the old lighthouse;
with the sea swooshing in, … through an old stone-bridge, right up to the doorstep!
It really gave me shivers…
I’m glad we found out, that it doesn’t belong to some weird rich asshole:
it’s the “Castro Guimarães Museum” of Cascais!
I didn’t have my camera with me – so here‘s a good picture by curlygirl.
“The Municipal Museum (Castro Guimarães Museum)
Situated in one of the most sought after areas of the town, where the sea appears to be trying to reach the Gandarinha Park, is the Counts of Castro Guimarães Palace, whose medieval castle overlooks the Santa Marta Cove. The Palace was donated to the local authority in 1924, when it became a Museum. It is worth a prolonged visit, not only for its unusual architecture, but also for its wealth of art and archaeology. You can appreciate works of art by national and international artists, some of them depicting Cascais and rich Indo-Portuguese furniture. The library was constantly replenished and updated, and has over twenty five thousand books, some of them from the XVII century, richly bound. It provides an exceptional source of information and assistance to lecturers, researchers and students. The Museum is open daily from 10.00 – 17.00, but closed on Mondays and Public Holidays. There are guided tours in several languages and visitors are accompanied. Do not miss the opportunity to take a walk in the adjacent park where there are lovely tiles and a mini-zoo.”(Quote from www.portugalvirtual.pt)
