MUNDIAL RUSIA 2018- GRUPO E: BRASIL, SUIZA, COSTA RICA Y SERBIA

MAMUTRIP quiere que conozcamos juntos los lugares desde donde viene cada selección participante de este Mundial de Futbol. Hoy conoceremos las que integran el Grupo E: Brasil, Suiza, Costa Rica y Serbia.

En BRASIL muy cerca de Río de Janeiro está Arraial do Cabo, conocida por tener la arena más blanca de toda la región. Uno de sus puntos a favor, es que se encuentra muy cerca de Búzios y Cabo Frío, por lo que se torna ideal para quienes gustan recorrer ciudades vecinas y no quedarse quietos. Sus playas son como pequeñas ensenadas, rodeadas de morros cubiertos de vegetación y cerradas al mar abierto, formando piscinas naturales gigantescas, perfectas para los aficionados del buceo.

SUIZA tiene un lugar conocido mundialmente por su festival de jazz y ese lugar es Montreux sinónimo de hogar de la música. Está situado en las orillas del lago de Ginebra, en el corazón de la Riviera suiza, la ciudad es considerada el paseo más hermoso de Suiza. Salpicadas de palmeras y rodeado de viñedos, la propiedad ha inspirado a muchos artistas y escritores, entre ellos Delacroix y Courbet, Jean-Jacques Rousseau y Lord Byron.

En COSTA RICA podemos visitar el Parque Nacional Volcán Arenal y La Fortuna, que solía ser uno de los volcanes más activos de Costa Rica. El Arenal sigue siendo sin duda un hermoso espectáculo para la vista. La Fortuna, es un pequeño pueblo cerca de la base del majestuoso volcán espectacular belleza. Mientras permanezcamos aquí no hay que dejar de visitar las maravillosas Aguas Termales, un paraíso tropical donde podemos relajar mente y cuerpo.

El tren de más famosos de SERBIA es el Šargan Eight, es un tren histórico de trocha angosta (760 mm) y locomotora a vapor que debe su nombre a la figura que forman las vías vistas desde el cielo. Un ocho entre las montañas que une el pequeño pueblo de Mokra Gora con la estación de Šargan Vitasi. Ya de por sí, el proyecto es singular: la idea de un trazado con esta figura sirvió para sortear los 300 m de diferencia entre las estaciones. Pero más allá de esta particularidad, su historia está rodeada de mitos.

London Transport, formed in 1933 to amalgamate and coordinate the operations of the capital's various transport undertakings, carried on in the tradition of its predecessors in promoting transport opportunities, particularly those outside peak hours when capacity could be put to good and profitable use. Also int he tradition of the Underground Group the quality of much of their publicity material was second to none and amongst the best of the contemporary crop.

 

This 1938 "Party Outings" brochure is no exception. Tipped inside is this booking or enquiry form. Around this date LT's 'new' publicity manager, Christian Barman who had been appointed by Frank Pick, was working with Curwen Press looking at various typefaces used in LT timetables and on tickets, with regards to legibility. This form for the booking of group visits really shows the fruits of that work in terms of layout and typography.

EL ESCRITOR QUE TEMÍA SER ENTERRADO VIVO

Nikolái Vasílievich Gógol es un escritor ucraniano en lengua rusa nacido en Soróchintsi el 1 de abril de 1809 y fallecido en Moscú el 4 de marzo de 1852. Es considerado como uno de los máximos exponentes de la literatura rusa del siglo XIX a pesar de que, por educación y cultura, podría ser considerado ucraniano. Perteneciente a una familia de la baja nobleza rural, Gógol se trasladó a San Petersburgo en 1828, donde entabló amistad con Aleksandr Pushkin. Entre sus obras literarias sobresalientes se cuentan a “El inspector”, “El casamiento” y “Los jugadores”. Una anécdota conocida de este talentoso artista, es que tenía auténtico pánico a la remota posibilidad de ser enterrado vivo por accidente. Tanto es así que se negaba a acostarse por si lo daban por muerto y rogó a sus allegados que esperasen a que su cuerpo presentase evidentes síntomas de descomposición para cerciorarse de que no despertaría bajo tierra, voluntad que fue respetada.

UCRANIA, el lugar de su nacimiento, es conocida como uno de los países más grandes de Europa, se ubica en el este del continente, compartiendo sus fronteras con Rusia, Bielorrusia, Polonia, Eslovaquia, Hungría, Rumania, Moldavia y el Mar Negro y el de Azov al sur. Tiene destinos populares como Kiev u Odesa y lugares con balnearios a pleno sol.

We'd love to hear from you if you use our photos.

 

Many other photos in our collection are available to view and browse on our website using Photo Investigator.

I came by these wonderful old B & W photos by way of my aunt. She was at a Scrap Booking convention/ retreat in the Red Woods of northern Calif. This woman sitting at the same table as my aunt, threw out three old photo albums full of family photos & post cards from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. The lady said the albums once belonged to her mother in law and since she didn't know the people in the photos she tossed the albums in the trash. My aunt later went dumpster diving and initially gave me one album and she kept the other two, then had a change of mind and gave me the other two albums.

 

You don't have to know the people to enjoy the photos. Well just like the old sayings go, "A picture is worth a 1000 words", or "One man's trash is another man's treasure"

Hey I could use a little help. If you recognize people or places or vehicles please speak up, add your comments please.

This is Leamington Spa Station in Warwickshire.

 

I got here on a Chiltern Railways train from Solihull.

 

Was lucky that I had blue skys in Leamington, especially for an October day (have been having many blue sky days in October 2011).

 

The current Art Deco building was opened in 1939.

 

And is Grade II listed.

 

It was opened by the Great Western Railway to replace the original building of 1852.

 

The building was restored by 2008 by Chiltern Railways.

 

Grade II listing Leamington Spa Station, Including Attached Platform Structures, Royal Leamington Spa - British Listed Buildings

 

Main line station 1939 for Great Western Railway. Steel-framed sheathed in brick; faced with Portland stone above polished granite plinth; brick to rear/platform elevations. Flat roofs with parapet. Wooden sashes with stone architraves. Platform canopies steel girders with cast iron columns. Art Deco neo-classical style.

EXTERIOR: To forecourt, ENTRANCE RANGE of 3 storeys and 9 bays, LEFT RANGE of 2 storeys and 14 bays, and single storey RIGHT RANGE. ENTRANCE RANGE has advanced ground floor with granite plinth, rusticated Portland stone, and parapet. Main entrance has granite architrave, pair of glazed doors with side- and over-lights, horizontal mullions and 'ENTRANCE' in metal lettering flanked by three 6-over-9 sashes, all under glazed canopy. Above this, 5-part facade has central 3 bays defined by shallow pilasters with stepped vertical detailing, flanked by slightly taller and advanced single bay, then double end bays; all with 6-over-9 pane sashes to 1st floor, 3-over-6 pane sashes to 2nd floor, and projecting stepped cornice below parapet. 'LEAMINGTON SPA STATION' in sans serif lettering to parapet over central 3 bays. To right, single recessed bay blank above entrance. RIGHT RANGE has 1-storey subway entrance with 3 wide openings outlined in polished granite under 3 blind panels, inside walls canted to subway passage. LEFT RANGE has parapet roof above flat cornice, banded string course, and continuous polished granite plinth. Central bay advanced slightly with pair of 4-over-6 pane sashes above entrance with granite architrave. Two 6-over-9 sashes to otherwise mostly blank first floor, and 6-over-9 sashes to ground floor with secondary entrances to each end also within granite architraves. Far left is advanced with similar windows and door on return. Return elevations stone with brick to rear/platforms. INTERIOR: Booking Hall and subway tiled above granite plinth. Stairs to each platform with stick metal balusters, some wavy, and wooden handrails. Balustrade and newels at platform level have circular and wavy details.

PLATFORMS: 2 primary platforms 'Down' and 'Up' (to London), and 2 shorter platforms for stabling trains. The linear platform buildings have brick walls with granite plinth and cantilevered canopies edged with bargeboards and framed with steel girders springing from stone pilasters and stepped corbel blocks. Platform extends beyond the buildings where canopies are supported by paired cast-iron columns. Down platform has former telegraph room with wooden and glazed panelled entrance, waiting room, buffet, lavatories. Up platform has waiting room and service rooms. Wood framed glazed doors with metal mullions, handles and curved bars in a Deco style. Waiting rooms finished with wood architraves to doors and fixed pane with overlight windows to platforms, blocked fireplaces, coved and beamed ceilings, and fixed wooden bench seating. Buffet fully panelled with polished walnut, continuous bar similarly panelled below moulded edge, back bar; fireplace to north with mirror and panelled overmantle and fluted band to top. Lavatories with wooden doors and stone Deco style fireplaces. Some original benches with 'GWR' scrolled in supports on platforms.

HISTORY: This station replaced the 1853 Brunel station that was demolished in 1935, which had in turn replaced the large Georgian Eastnor Terrace.

SOURCES: Great Western Railway Magazine July 1937, December 1937, March 1940.

We made a short notice booking to Copenhagen, Jayne had the first week in September booked off and we wanted to try and do a city break. Five nights hardly seemed enough but the short flight was ok. We flew over home heading east on a beautiful morning. I love flying over an area that I know and being able to see it from above. We had been warned that Copenhagen was expensive-it was! I hadn’t done any research before we set off but on the flight over, I read that taxis were expensive, so it was best to use the Metro from the airport, it isn’t far in to the city and the Metro was fairly easy to use. However! We should have caught the train, I read this whist we were sat on the Metro it has to be said! The nearest Metro stop, which I was frantically trying to work out, using my phone, travelling in and out of tunnels, turned out to be a 1.5 mile walk from our hotel, the rail station was .5. Never mind we were there to walk-subject to my lately diagnosed arthritic ankle, we just didn’t want to be towing suitcases over cobbled pavements at the same time.

 

We were staying in the Tivoli Hotel which was described as central, it is near Central Station but you wouldn’t describe it as central to the city. Our room wasn’t ready but we could upgrade for a modest amount plus we realised it would be a good idea to include breakfast in the upgrade deal. A good move as it turned out. Our room overlooked the train lines-all twelve of them!! We could already hear train brakes squealing along with the thump thump of steel wheels rolling over points and joints. It’s true to say that Central Station is a 24/7 operation. The overnight noise didn’t bother Jayne but I could hear it all night.

 

We dumped our stuff and I loaded up with the backpack and camera and we were straight out there. Copenhagen is a relatively small city but there is a lot to see. We were soon finding out that it has an extensive network of canals and bridges and these are a major feature of life in the city. Pan flat, the cyclist rules, There appeared to be twice as many bikes as residents, with countless thousands propped up everywhere you went. Where ever you looked there was silent conveyor of sit up and beg cycles being ridden in all directions. You soon got used to looking over your shoulder before making a move. The vast majority of bikes are left unlocked and almost no one wears a helmet ( I’m a no helmet man, much to the annoyance of the helmet zealots). Copenhagen is reputedly the happiest place in the world and it certainly came across as friendly and relaxed. It is, though, one of the most expensive cities in the world and two burgers and two small glasses of wine at Nyhavn cost us £50. Comically, there were four people, local to us, shouting out Jayne’s name, they had seen us going past and we had a laugh about the prices, They were sat drinking beer at £8.50 a pint. Despite the expense, the place was packed with people parting with their money. Wages are very high locally, as are the taxes. The high wages and high costs must feed each other in an upward spiral I would have thought.

 

Unfortunately the cost of entering buildings to go up towers etc. for a higher view of the city was also very expensive (to us). The tower at Christiansborg Palace is free but restricted by the lift system and you don’t get to the top, it does also open later than the others so you have a chance of seeing sunset over the city. Unfortunately the lifts were out of order on one of our best weather days. We did get to go up the day after but it was dull and I wasn’t overly impressed. The spiral tower across in Christiana, The Church of Our Saviour, was far more impressive. We climbed the tower here just after it opened on a stunning morning and the views are fantastic. There will be incredible bottlenecks when it’s busy though on the corkscrew stairs that get progressively narrower towards the top. Some people hog it to take endless selfies at the top and it is extremely tight up there, you can’t move up until they come down.

 

As usual, we tried to get to some out of the way places, with only five days and mixed weather though we had enough mainstream destinations to see. We had a day of heavy rain so we went back to the rail station which was a good indoor (and free!) destination, and made umbrellas and the rain the focal point of that days photos. The entire Danish navy seemed to be at anchor, we just missed an open day on one ship. Some I could photograph, others were guarded and had restrictions, I got the evil eye from a couple of guards as the spotted the big Canon in my hand. I can’t imagine that they could police the Japanese and stop them from getting their photos and selfies though. I always act very openly with the camera and if people look at me suspiciously I smile and give them the thumbs up. In a rail station I usually ask the police. In Central Station the police were in their station and I never saw one move out, it is covered by extensive CCTV but there were some very unpleasant people, drinking and watching for people being careless with their belongings. We were lucky to be in the station on Sunday as a tourist steam train arrived, it sat at the platform belching smoke and steam for fifteen minutes, it was also coming back in an hour so we had an expensive coffee and waited to see it again. There was big military event outside the Christiansborg Palace on Monday, with a parade through the city that came past just as we were in a good spot to view it. The area was full of soldiers wearing their medals. We haven’t discovered the reason, although someone suggested a passing out parade for new recruits. Maybe the ships were in port for this as well.

 

Tivoli Gardens is another big draw and we went in, again it was fairly expensive, it had been a stunning day and the biggest problem was contrast, with deep shadows and a bright blue sky. We stayed until dark, it opens late and is very colourful. We went on the world’s highest carousel and got flung around 260 odd feet in the air. Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.

 

There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.
