Hello, dears :)
Do you travel often? The ladies at Ladyredot.com certainly do. They´ve invited me to share some tips for keeping your routine while travelling, and I couldn´t resist a short stretching routine I usually do at hotel rooms.
Just in case you need ideas on your next destination, you´ll find some amazing places reviewed at Ladyredot.com
Good morning, dears!
I asked for permission at the hotel to take some pics. The whole staff is fantastic and the manager allowed me to share with you this beautiful hotel. As there are other guests, and we should respect their privacy, I took pics of spaces with no people. This is a lounge bar, next to the restaurant.
From the restaurant, you can see the tennis courts. This was yesterday while I was listening others guests in German, English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
Once at the gym, Joel Silva, Personal trainer at Open Village Sports Hotel & Spa Club was so kind to pose showing you Kinesis, a functional training equipment wich offers an unlimited number of exercises. All the equipment is Technogym. The gym is not only for guests. Also, a club uses this facilities, open from 7:00 to 21:30. If you need to improve your tennis service or soccer skills, this is your place :)
The hotel is really huge. I can spend a day taking pics: the pool, the spa, the hall… but I came to visit the city. I don´t know if it´s true but, “Portugal was born here”.
I visited the Guimaraes Castle. It´s small but looks impressive! Also, it´s free to visit :D
Palace of the Dukes of Braganza is next to the castle. This is so big that I couldn´t take a decent picture from the outside. For 6€, you can take pics without flash and visit the interior. I strongly recommend you visit this Palace. This is the interior courtyard.
I would love this dining room if I don´t have to clean it. Anyway, I bet those Dukes knew how to party!
Of course, the ceiling!
Also, there is a part of an exposition, “Catapults and siege machines” inside the Palace.
I found a great place for lunch: Sabores do chef, rúa Abade Tagilde, 353, Guimaraes. The Chef Joao Silva is great, attentive, kind and very friendly. I should train With him. He is a really big guy!
How was my lunch? Ox steak with pepper, salad and chips.
And chocolate cake. Delicious!
With this piece of art… Goodbye, I have places to visit, people to meet, and I´m hungry again :D
I have tons of pictures, but I don´t want to bother you. Instead, petitions? The castle, the palace, gardens, museums… it will be my pleasure :)
Have a great day!!
Good morning, dears :)

I guess I´m ready to visit the city ;)
Have a nice day :)
