180321-N-RG482-201 ATLANTIC OCEAN (March 21, 2018) Boatswain's Mate 3rd Class Noah Cheek, right, trains Ensign Drake Davis on the duties of a helmsman aboard the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Ross (DDG 71) March 21, 2018. Ross, forward-deployed to Rota, Spain, is on its sixth patrol in the U.S. 6th Fleet area of operations in support of regional allies and partners and U.S. national security interests in Europe.

This Grand Banks 36 Classic is a very fine example of a completely refitted (in 2017) and very well maintained seakeeping trawler. She has safe, teak laid walk-around decks, a teak laid aft deck and a fly bridge with easy access and second helmsman. The two 180hp Volvo Penta diesels with low engine hours ensure a comfortable ride at a cruising speed of approx. 8,5 knots. She benefits from a master cabin aft with a double berth to starboard, a single berth to port and an ensuite head compartment. The guest cabin is forward with a V-berth and an ensuite head. The saloon is well laid out with an l-shaped sofa and a removable table that can also convert into another bed. This is a great opportunity to require a sturdy motor yacht at a competitive price. It is also worth mentioning that in 2017 the boat has been fully prepared for commercial use and that she has an active commercial charter licence. Optionally, the business/company can be taken over as well by separate negotiation. In short: she´s all ready to go cruising. **this boat has been sold**.

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.....ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

"The Bridegroom's doors are opened wide,

And I am next of kin;

The guests are met, the feast is set:

May'st hear the merry din."

 

He holds him with his skinny hand,

"There was a ship," quoth he.

"Hold off! unhand me, grey-beard loon!"

Eftsoons his hand dropt he.

 

He holds him with his glittering eye --

The Wedding-Guest stood still,

And listens like a three years child:

The Mariner hath his will.

 

The Wedding-Guest sat on a stone:

He cannot chuse but hear;

And thus spake on that ancient man,

The bright-eyed Mariner.

 

The ship was cheered, the harbour cleared,

Merrily did we drop

Below the kirk, below the hill,

Below the light-house top.

 

The Sun came up upon the left,

Out of the sea came he!

And he shone bright, and on the right

Went down into the sea.

 

Higher and higher every day,

Till over the mast at noon --

The Wedding-Guest here beat his breast,

For he heard the loud bassoon.

 

The bride hath paced into the hall,

Red as a rose is she;

Nodding their heads before her goes

The merry minstrelsy.

 

The Wedding-Guest he beat his breast,

Yet he cannot chuse but hear;

And thus spake on that ancient man,

The bright-eyed Mariner.

 

And now the Storm-Blast came, and he

Was tyrannous and strong:

He struck with his o'ertaking wings,

And chased south along.

 

With sloping masts and dipping prow,

As who pursued with yell and blow

Still treads the shadow of his foe

And forward bends his head,

The ship drove fast, loud roared the blast,

And southward aye we fled.

 

And now there came both mist and snow,

And it grew wondrous cold:

And ice, mast-high, came floating by,

As green as emerald.

 

And through the drifts the snowy clifts

Did send a dismal sheen:

Nor shapes of men nor beasts we ken --

The ice was all between.

 

The ice was here, the ice was there,

The ice was all around:

It cracked and growled, and roared and howled,

Like noises in a swound!

 

At length did cross an Albatross:

Thorough the fog it came;

As if it had been a Christian soul,

We hailed it in God's name.

 

It ate the food it ne'er had eat,

And round and round it flew.

The ice did split with a thunder-fit;

The helmsman steered us through!

 

And a good south wind sprung up behind;

The Albatross did follow,

And every day, for food or play,

Came to the mariners' hollo!

 

In mist or cloud, on mast or shroud,

It perched for vespers nine;

Whiles all the night, through fog-smoke white,

Glimmered the white Moon-shine.

 

"God save thee, ancient Mariner!

From the fiends, that plague thee thus! --

Why look'st thou so?" -- With my cross-bow

I shot the Albatross.

As part of Preston Guild City Games 2014 the Dragon Boat Championship 2014

 

Each boat consists of 15 team members, including a drum-beater to keep the team in rhythm, and a professional helmsman (provided) to keep direction.

It has a rectangular part (8.16 x 7.82 m.), and an apsidal part. In the centre a hexagonal basin (or rather fountain) was found, with sides of 0.96 m. It was decorated with marble. The mosaic was damaged when, at an unknown point in time, the lead pipe taking water to the fountain was removed. The mosaic was in antiquity not submerged. It probably covered the floor of a dining room. There was a wooden reclining couch in the apsidal part. The room formed part of a very large villa. For the size, plan and luxurious nature of the villa no parallels have been found in Germania Superior. The name of the owner is not known, but he must have been a leading person, active in the nearby provincial capital Mogontiacum (Mainz).

 

In the apse is a depiction of the sea-god Oceanus. On his head are the claws of lobsters. On either side of his head is a hippocampus. The sea is depicted with black and white tesserae. In the sea are fish and snails. There are no freshwater animals. Four ships were depicted, two of which - near Oceanus - are preserved well. To the right of Oceanus is a ship with amphorae and two men, to the left a ship with a helmsman and four oarsmen. Buildings are depicted above, and to the left and right of the basin. To the left a commercial transaction may be going on, to the right is a fisherman.

 

Two inscriptions have been preserved. To the right of the buildings above the basin is an inscription with small letters: VICTORINVS TESS(ELLARIVS) FEC(IT) ("Victorinus, mosaicist, made this"). In a border in the upper left part is the beginning of an inscription: MAXIMO ET V[RBANO CO(N)S(VLIBVS) ---], that is the consular date 234 AD.

Hamburg, Blankenese, this formerly Fishing Village along the Elbe River in the Western Part of Hamburg has a long History, the Name “Blankenese” comes from the Low German “Blanc Ness”, meaning White Promontory in the Elbe River.

 

The stunning Views from the River-facing Stairs-Quarter of Blankenese have resulted in highly desirable Properties & expensive Real Estate Prices owned in the Past by Sea-Captains & Helmsman, although the Ship Owners resided on the “Elbchausse” Country Road along the River, starting at the Hamburg Harbour Area & ending in Blankenese.

The Domiciles at the Pedestrian-only Labyrinth of the 58 Stairs at the up to over 70 m high Hillside, with a total of 4864 Steps, are owned today by anyone who can afford it, not actually only Moneywise, …more because you need the Guts to carry everything, Food, Beverage, Garbage, Furniture, Babies, older People etc. etc. by Hand up or down, which is especially tough in Wintertime or by Rain.

 

USS Turner Joy (DD-951), a museum ship in Bremerton, Washington. This Forrest Sherman class destroyer was commissioned in 1959, saw war service in Vietnam, and has been at this location as a museum ship since 1991. Her claim to fame is her participation, with the USS Maddox (DD 731), in the Gulf of Tonkin Incident which the President Johnson administration staged in 1964 to justify a greatly expanded US participation in the ongoing war between North Vietnam and South Vietnam.

At first glance, I'd call it a houseboat, or more specifically, a Floating Home. But that big 115 horse Mercury outboard motor means it's undeniably a boat, a nautical vessel. It qualifies for different legal status and tax benefits. It's sort of a new critter, this one--one of the Float-tels, but with a woody, cedar-sided exterior siding, and a rooftop party deck. I don't suppose the helmsman has to wrestle will the tiller from back there on the back porch, but who knows? I'm looking forward to seeing this one out on the Columbia during a windstorm. Well...maybe not.

141028-N-TW634-045 STRAIT OF MALACCA (Oct. 28, 2014) Seaman Chad Beall, from Stonewall, La., stands watch as master helmsman of the Oliver Hazard Perry-class guided-missile frigate USS Rodney M. Davis (FFG 60) as the ship performs a strait transit. Rodney M. Davis, stationed in Everett, Wash., is on patrol in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility supporting security and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Derek A. Harkins/Released)

The Drum was the first museum sub I toured that allowed visitors into the conning tower.

 

I used a similar plotter when I was in the Navy. You would place a chart on top, and set the scale of the chart. A light would appear under the chart, which you would set at your current position. You would plug in your ship's course and speed, and the light would move, giving you an estimated position. Of course, this did not take into account set and drift (caused by currents) or steering errors by the helmsman.

It has a rectangular part (8.16 x 7.82 m.), and an apsidal part. In the centre a hexagonal basin (or rather fountain) was found, with sides of 0.96 m. It was decorated with marble. The mosaic was damaged when, at an unknown point in time, the lead pipe taking water to the fountain was removed. The mosaic was in antiquity not submerged. It probably covered the floor of a dining room. There was a wooden reclining couch in the apsidal part. The room formed part of a very large villa. For the size, plan and luxurious nature of the villa no parallels have been found in Germania Superior. The name of the owner is not known, but he must have been a leading person, active in the nearby provincial capital Mogontiacum (Mainz).

 

In the apse is a depiction of the sea-god Oceanus. On his head are the claws of lobsters. On either side of his head is a hippocampus. The sea is depicted with black and white tesserae. In the sea are fish and snails. There are no freshwater animals. Four ships were depicted, two of which - near Oceanus - are preserved well. To the right of Oceanus is a ship with amphorae and two men, to the left a ship with a helmsman and four oarsmen. Buildings are depicted above, and to the left and right of the basin. To the left a commercial transaction may be going on, to the right is a fisherman.

 

Two inscriptions have been preserved. To the right of the buildings above the basin is an inscription with small letters: VICTORINVS TESS(ELLARIVS) FEC(IT) ("Victorinus, mosaicist, made this"). In a border in the upper left part is the beginning of an inscription: MAXIMO ET V[RBANO CO(N)S(VLIBVS) ---], that is the consular date 234 AD.

Bonhomme Richard, commanded by Capt. Daniel Dusek, is the lead ship of the only forward-deployed amphibious ready group and is currently operating in the 7th fleet area of responsibility.

Mablethorpe

 

Mablethorpe is a seaside town in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire. The population, including nearby Sutton-on-Sea, was 12,531 at the 2011 census.

 

In 1998, a bronze medal was awarded to the helmsman of the Mablethorpe Lifeboat for service on the 12th. April, when the lifeboat rescued a crew of two and saved the fishing vessel Lark, which had broken down in the surf and was drifting towards the shore without her anchor.

 

The lifeboat was launched in a force 7 gale and a heavy swell – extreme conditions for this class. The helmsman had difficulty in negotiating the rough seas to reach the fishing boat, decided it was too hazardous to take off the crew and passed a line and towed her from danger – a considerable feat in huge seas for a lifeboat smaller than the fishing boat and powered by one 40 hp outboard engine.

In 1953, Mablethorpe was hit by the disastrous East Coast floods. The seawall was breached on the 31st. January. A granite rock memorial was unveiled on the coast on the 31st. January 2013 in memory of the town's 42 victims.

 

Mablethorpe in Literature

 

One of Great Britain's most renowned historical poets, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, regularly visited Mablethorpe. It is said that he used to shout his poetry aloud towards the sea. Some features of the town have been named after him, for example, Tennyson Road and Tennyson High School.

 

Mablethorpe is the destination for the fictional Morel family's first holiday in the D. H. Lawrence novel, Sons and Lovers, published in 1913:

 

'At last they got an answer from Mablethorpe,

a cottage such as they wished for thirty shillings

a week. There was immense jubilation. Paul was

wild with joy for his mother's sake. She would have

a real holiday now. He and she sat at evening

picturing what it would be like. Annie came in, and

Leonard, and Alice, and Kitty. There was wild rejoicing

and anticipation. Paul told Miriam. She seemed to

brood with joy over it. But the Morel's house rang

with excitement.'

 

Mablethorpe is also the seaside setting for the Ted Lewis crime novel GBH, published in 1980. The novel was his last, and has been described as a 'lost masterwork'.

 

Leisure

 

Family attractions include a small fairground and an award-winning beach with traditional seaside amusement arcades. One of Mablethorpe's long-standing features, its sand train, takes visitors to and from the northerly point of the beach. Mablethorpe Seal Sanctuary and Wildlife Centre is also north of the town.

 

Mablethorpe's cinema, the Loewen in Quebec Road, was previously known as the Bijou. In 2008, the old Dunes Theatre became Sharky's Bar after a refit, but returned to its original function and name in 2012.

 

A skate park was opened in May 2008 on the seafront. This includes a small funbox, a spine and two quarter pipes.

 

Several small caravan parks and guest houses provide tourist accommodation.

 

Events

 

Mablethorpe hosts Britain's only beach-hut festival, Bathing Beauties, in September each year. Owners of private beach huts compete in exterior design, amidst a backdrop of poetry, music, and drama.

 

Mablethorpe has long hosted motorbike sand racing each winter and spring. This has inspired the Lincolnshire Bike Week, following on from the successful Mablethorpe and Sutton-on-Sea Bike Nights.

 

Each summer Mablethorpe hosts an illuminations event (a 'Switch On'), for which a celebrity is invited. Those 'switching on' have included Barbara Windsor, Timmy Mallett and Wolf and Hunter of Gladiators.

It has a rectangular part (8.16 x 7.82 m.), and an apsidal part. In the centre a hexagonal basin (or rather fountain) was found, with sides of 0.96 m. It was decorated with marble. The mosaic was damaged when, at an unknown point in time, the lead pipe taking water to the fountain was removed. The mosaic was in antiquity not submerged. It probably covered the floor of a dining room. There was a wooden reclining couch in the apsidal part. The room formed part of a very large villa. For the size, plan and luxurious nature of the villa no parallels have been found in Germania Superior. The name of the owner is not known, but he must have been a leading person, active in the nearby provincial capital Mogontiacum (Mainz).

 

In the apse is a depiction of the sea-god Oceanus. On his head are the claws of lobsters. On either side of his head is a hippocampus. The sea is depicted with black and white tesserae. In the sea are fish and snails. There are no freshwater animals. Four ships were depicted, two of which - near Oceanus - are preserved well. To the right of Oceanus is a ship with amphorae and two men, to the left a ship with a helmsman and four oarsmen. Buildings are depicted above, and to the left and right of the basin. To the left a commercial transaction may be going on, to the right is a fisherman.

 

Two inscriptions have been preserved. To the right of the buildings above the basin is an inscription with small letters: VICTORINVS TESS(ELLARIVS) FEC(IT) ("Victorinus, mosaicist, made this"). In a border in the upper left part is the beginning of an inscription: MAXIMO ET V[RBANO CO(N)S(VLIBVS) ---], that is the consular date 234 AD.

Italien / Venetien - Lazise

 

Lazise is a comune (municipality) and town in the Province of Verona in the Italian region Veneto, located about 120 kilometres (75 miles) west of Venice and about 20 kilometres (12 miles) northwest of Verona. It is situated on the eastern shore of Lake Garda. As of 31 December 2004, it had a population of 6,213 and an area of 65.0 square kilometres (25.1 sq mi). This geographical location empowers a position of great landscape value, but it also features elements of great architectural value and of great historical importance.

 

As well as these peculiarities, Lazise can rely on the presence of many attractions: a thermal spring situated in Colà, two amusement parks (Canevaworld and Gardaland, this latter situated partly on the territory of Castelnuovo del Garda, where it is based, and partly on the territory of Lazise) and an extensive hilly agricultural landscape. Lazise records about 3.5 million tourist visits every year, figures that place it at 12th place in Italy among tourist destinations, and the first Italian lake destination.

 

The municipality of Lazise contains the frazioni (subdivisions, mainly villages and hamlets) Colà and Pacengo.

 

Lazise borders the following municipalities: Bardolino, Bussolengo, Castelnuovo del Garda, Padenghe sul Garda, Pastrengo, Peschiera del Garda and Sirmione.

 

Origins of the name

 

The name Lazise comes from the Latin word lacus that means ‘lakeside village’, as some documents of Early Middle Ages seem to confirm, referring to the settlement as Laceses. Another hypothesis, later ruled out, put the name of the town as originating from Antonio Bevilacqua di Loncis. Loncis, from his castle in Bavaria, became governor of Lake Garda and the forefather of a major family that then changed its name to Bevilacqua-Lazise. Last hypothesis is lately ruled out comes from Lazica Kingdom.

 

History

 

Its name derives from the Latin "lacus" which means lacustrine village. Lazise in fact was originally a group of stilt houses beyond that Roman village and market. Between 888 and 961, during the reign of Berengar II of Italy and his son, the town was subject only to the monarch, that is, it was a "free villa" not subject to some feudatory. In 961, Italy was invaded by German troops, who descended the valley of the Adige to camp on the shores of Garda.

 

In 983, the Holy Roman Emperor Otto I granted Lazise the right to fortify itself and establish trading rights. It is considered as the first and oldest comune in Italy, and perhaps all of Europe. The medieval Church of Saint Nicolò has frescoes dating from the 12th century, by the school of Giotto. The customs house from the 16th century was constructed to control trade on the lake. During the 13th and 14th centuries, Lazise was occupied by the Scaligeri of Verona who built the castle and encircled the town with walls.

 

In 1405, it came under Venetian Republic rule until Napoleon conquered northern Italy in 1796.

 

After the Congress of Vienna (1815) it entered a period of Austrian rule, until in 1866, it was incorporated into the Kingdom of Italy.

 

The 14th-century La Pergolana villa, a kilometre north of Lazise, hosts a honey festival during the first weekend of October.

 

Tourism

 

The city is a holiday destination, and attracts tourists from the immediate area owing to its views of the Alps from the southern shore of Lake Garda.

 

At the center of the city is a series of interconnected piazze that house numerous open-air cafés, various shops, gelaterie (ice-cream parlours), and bars.

 

Scaliger Castle

 

The most imposing building of Lazise is the Scaliger Castle and the city wall that surrounds the historic centre. The castle was built during the domination of the lords of Verona Bartolomeo II and Antonio della Scala, or maybe just before the father Cansignorio della Scala (considering that Porta Nuova bears the date 21 May 1376). The city has always had three gates equipped with drawbridges: Porta Superiore, today known as Porta San Zeno, for the access on east side; Porta Lion (so called because it determined the coat of arms of the Serenissima), for the access on south side; Porta Nuova (so named because it was the last to be built), today widely called Porta Cansignorio, for access on north side. The castle suffered damages during the siege of the Venetians in July 1438, and then again in May 1528 due to the work of the army of Charles V. In the 16th century, with the progress of new technologies and war tactics, the castle lost importance and was purchased firstly by the community of Lazise and later by private families.

 

Traditions and folklore

 

Traditional events are the Regatta delle Bisse, using traditional Venetian rowing boats (with four standing rowers and no helmsman), whose stop in Lazise takes place between July and August, and the Cuccagna del Cadenon, which takes place at the end of August in conjunction with the Festa dell’Ospite, in which an eight-metre pole is placed horizontally on the waters of the old port, abundantly coated with fat, and is won by the one who, slipping on the greasy pole, manages to take the flag to the bottom.

 

Events

 

Celebrations that regularly take place in the village are numerous, in particular fairs and festivals: the Festa dell'Ospite, that is held at the end of July in Pacengo (a neighbouring town) and at the end of August in Lazise, when there are various stands that sell typical local products, concerts and a final show with fireworks; the Antica sagra della Madonna della Neve that takes place in the municipality of Colà at the beginning of August, during which the traditional plate of anara col pien (stuffed and roast duck) is served; la Sagra del Marciapié, an old feast that is celebrated on the last day of Carnival and the first of Lent in Via Arco, during which citizens are invited to choose the representatives of the street named Via Capo Valàr, in addition to the carnival masks; lastly the national fair I giorni del miele, a trade fair completely dedicated to honey and its derivatives held at the beginning of October.

 

(Wikipedia)

 

Lazise ist eine italienische Gemeinde (comune) mit 7028 Einwohnern (Stand 31. Dezember 2019) in der Provinz Verona, Region Venetien.

 

Geografie

 

Lazise befindet sich am Veroneser Südost-Ufer des Gardasees, das sandartige Strände aufweist, und liegt zwischen den Ortschaften Bardolino und Peschiera del Garda. Die Entfernung zur Provinzhauptstadt Verona beträgt etwa 23 Kilometer.

 

Klima und Vegetation

 

Vorwiegend herrscht in der südlichen Gardaseeregion mildes Klima. Die Sommer sind warm und nicht zu heiß; die Winter mild und mit wenig Regen. Schneefälle kommen höchst selten vor.

 

Vegetation

 

Rund um den Gardasee prägen mediterrane Vegetationsformen wie Zypressen, Oleander, Zedern, Olivenbäume und auch Palmen das Erscheinungsbild. An den sonnenüberfluteten Hängen gedeihen Agaven, Opuntien und Kapernsträuche.

 

Einige wenige Kilometer vom Ortszentrum entfernt befinden sich zudem zahlreiche Weingärten, Obst- und Gemüsepflanzungen sowie Weizen- und Maisfelder.

 

Geschichte

 

Der Name

 

Der Name Lazise leitet sich vom lateinischen „lacus“ ab und bedeutete wohl „villaggio lacustre“ („Seedorf“), wie Dokumente aus dem Mittelalter belegen, die das Dorf unter dem Namen „laceses“ führten.

 

Bronzezeit bis zur venezianischen Herrschaft

 

Die Geschichte reicht bis in die mittlere Bronzezeit (16.–13. Jahrhundert v. Chr.) zurück. Zahlreiche Funde in den Ortschaften La Quercia, Bor und Porto Pacengo wurden Zeugen dieser ereignisreichen Zeit.

 

Bereits im Jahre 983 erhielt der Ort unter Kaiser Otto II. in der sogenannten Veroneser Schenkung nicht nur Zoll-, Handels- und Fischereirechte, sondern auch eine weitestgehende Autonomie. Die Gemeinde Lazise rühmt sich deshalb damit, die älteste Gemeinde Italiens zu sein.

 

Im 11. Jahrhundert war Lazise eine Hafenstation, die im Besitz des Hauses Bevilacqua war. Unter Kaiser Heinrich IV. erhielt man 1077 die Erlaubnis eine Burg zu errichten, die unter dem Scaliger Cansignorio della Scala im 14. Jahrhundert zu einer bedeutenden Wehranlage mit eigenem ummauerten Hafen ausgebaut und vermutlich unter seinem Nachfolger Antonio della Scala vollendet wurde. Unter den Scaligern wurden auch die Stadtmauern und Stadttore erneuert und verstärkt. Nach dem Ende der Scaligerherrschaft 1387 waren es die Mailänder Visconti unter Gian Galeazzo Visconti, die die Herrschaft über Lazise übernahmen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt trat Lazise der Gardesana dell’Acqua bei, einer Art Konföderation mehrerer von den Visconti beherrschten Gemeinden am See und im direkten Hinterland des Sees.

 

Republik Venedig

 

1405 fiel Lazise an die Republik Venedig. Unter Venedig wurde der Ort zu einem der Liegeplatz der venezianischen Galeeren und damit einer der Stützpunkte der venezianischen Gardaseeflotte. Im Zuge des Großen Venezianerkrieges unterlag Venedig 1509 in der Schlacht von Agnadello den Franzosen. Um diesen Zeitpunkt soll nach neuesten Erkenntnissen der Kapitän der venezianischen Flotte einige Galeeren mit Steinen beschwert, in Brand gesetzt und schließlich versenkt haben. Vor dem neuen Hafen von Lazise befindet sich in etwa 500 Meter Entfernung vom Ufer in einer Tiefe zwischen 24 Metern und 27 Metern das Wrack der im 16. Jahrhundert gesunkenen Galeere, sie hat eine Größe von 30 Metern Länge und 3 Metern Breite.

 

In der Folge wurde der Ort von umherziehenden Landsknechten geplündert. Erst zu Beginn des 17. Jahrhunderts trat wieder eine ruhigere und friedlichere Phase ein in der Lazise wirtschaftlich aufblühte. Ab 1607 wurde das Arsenal unter Herrschaft der Serenissima zur Zollstelle. Auf dem ganzen Gardasee und der östlich gelegenen Etsch wurde mit Waren wie Getreide, Papier, Stoffe, Öl sowie Eisenartikel gehandelt. Die Gegebenheit einer vorrangigen Stellung im Handel war dadurch gesichert.

 

Seit 1797

 

Im Zuge des Italienfeldzuges (1796–1797) wurde Lazise von napoleonischen Truppen besetzt. Mit dem Frieden von Campo Formio fiel der Ort erstmals an die Habsburger, um aber bereits 1805 an das napoleonische Königreich Italien angeschlossen zu werden, bevor es mit dem Wiener Kongress 1815 erneut an das habsburgerische Königreich Lombardo-Venetien fiel.

 

Lazise trat mit dem Ende des dritten italienischen Unabhängigkeitskrieges und der nachfolgenden Volksabstimmung dem Königreich Italien bei.

 

Sehenswürdigkeiten

 

Die Altstadt von Lazise weist noch immer viele Bauwerke mittelalterlichen Ursprungs auf. Das Stadtbild wird von den im 14. Jahrhundert von den Scaliger errichteten Stadtmauern und von der Burg beherrscht. Lazise besitzt zahlreiche malerische Ecken wie die Piazza Vittorio Emanuele und den kleinen Hafen, in dem noch heute Fischerboote liegen. Es gibt drei große Stadttore, durch die man in das Innere der autofreien Altstadt gelangt. Zum einen über den Eingang, der direkt an der verkehrsträchtigen Gardesana Orientale liegt und auch als Haupteingang gilt, zum anderen über die Via Rosenheim, die aufgrund der Partnerstadt Rosenheim so bezeichnet wurde, und schließlich zuletzt über die Straße namens Via Bastia.

 

Wirtschaft und Infrastruktur

 

Der Fremdenverkehr hat in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts die Landwirtschaft als wichtigste Einkommensquelle abgelöst. Im Ort befinden sich zahlreiche Hotels, Ferienanlagen, Appartement- und Zimmervermietungen sowie Campingplätze. Lazise hat 3,5 Millionen Nächtigungen pro Jahr und lag 2017 auf Platz 12 unter den Reisezielen in Italien.

 

Die bedeutendsten landwirtschaftlichen Produkte sind Wein und Olivenöl. Letzteres wird in Ölmühlen vor Ort vermarktet. Eine gewisse Rolle spielt auch die Nutztierhaltung, insbesondere die Schweineproduktion.

 

In der Vergangenheit noch bedeutend, spielt der Fischfang nur eine wirtschaftliche Nebenrolle, dem wenige Berufsfischer noch nachgehen.

 

Zu den im Zuge des Massentourismus entstandenen Einrichtungen gehört der südlich des Ortskerns gelegene Vergnügungspark Canevaworld.

 

Fischgerichte

 

Der so genannte Lavarello gilt als Felchen des Gardasees, der in den umliegenden Restaurants angeboten wird.

 

Weine

 

In den Hügeln der Venetischen Region wird auch heute noch in zahlreichen Weingütern Wein angebaut, z. B. der Bardolino Classico.

 

Wochenmarkt in Lazise

 

In den Frühjahr- und Sommermonaten finden um den Gardasee Wochenmärkte statt. Lazise bietet einen umfangreichen sowie gut sortierten Markt, der sich über die gesamte Altstadt erstreckt, der regelmäßig am Mittwoch abgehalten wird.

 

(Wikipedia)

An advantage in doing late shifts was that it was usually possible to bribe the vehicle allocator to put visiting vehicles on a particular card for the following day, hence me being the happy helmsman of Dennis Lance Plaxton Verde demonstrator J120 SPF on Brighton Buses' 81 service on 7th July, 1992. Whilst I have subsequently driven many Lances with a variety of bodywork, I believe it is the only Verde I have ever experienced.

Germany, Hamburg, Blankenese, view from the river “Elbe” towards the “Treppenviertel” on a sunny spring day in March.

This formerly fishing village along the river in the Western Part of Hamburg has a long History, the Name “Blankenese” comes from the low German “Blanc Ness”, meaning white promontory in the river Elbe.

The stunning views from the river-facing stairs-quarter of Blankenese have resulted in highly desirable properties & expensive real estate prices, owned in the past by sea-captains & helmsman, although the ship owners resided on the “Elbchausse” country road along the river, starting at the Hamburg harbour area & ending in Blankenese.

The domiciles at the pedestrian-only labyrinth of the 58 Stairways at the up to over 70 m high hillside, with a total of 4864 Steps, are owned today by anyone who can afford it, not actually only moneywise, …more because to most of the houses, you need the guts to carry everything, food, beverage, garbage, furniture, babies, elderly people etc. etc. up or down by hand, which is especially tough in wintertime or by rain.

 

As part of Preston Guild City Games 2014 the Dragon Boat Championship 2014

 

Each boat consists of 15 team members, including a drum-beater to keep the team in rhythm, and a professional helmsman (provided) to keep direction.

This formerly fishing village along the river in the Western Part of Hamburg has a long History, the Name “Blankenese” comes from the low German “Blanc Ness”, meaning white promontory in the river Elbe.

The stunning views from the river-facing stairs-quarter of Blankenese have resulted in highly desirable properties & expensive real estate prices, owned in the past by sea-captains & helmsman, although the ship owners resided on the “Elbchausse” country road along the river, starting at the Hamburg harbour area & ending in Blankenese.

The domiciles at the pedestrian-only labyrinth of the 58 Stairways at the up to over 70 m high hillside, with a total of 4864 Steps, are owned today by anyone who can afford it, not actually only moneywise, …more because to most of the houses, you need the guts to carry everything, food, beverage, garbage, furniture, babies, elderly people etc. etc. up or down by hand, which is especially tough in wintertime or by rain.

 

For those of you that grew up in the Los Angeles area, you very likely remember the old Helms Bakery trucks. Those of you too young, well, (sigh) you missed out on a special treat. They had a distinct whistle and when you heard it you were like Pavlov's dog and started salivating. Helms became famous during the 1932 Olympics (and no I wasn't born yet!) My mom would put a cardboard sign in the window with a big H on it so the Helmsman knew to stop at our house. When they pulled the long wooden drawers out...Ah, the smell was so wonderful...All the neighborhood kids loved the jelly filled donuts and cupcakes that would still be warm from the bakery. Sadly, they are gone. I spotted this near where the original bakery still stands...as I explored art galleries in Culver City. Although the original building remains, it only houses small stores and... no bakery.

On a day of breaking news that Dean Barker had been replaced as helmsman for Team New Zealand for the next America's Cup challenge, a "veteran" of the IC Auckland-Wellington-Auckland service, the 2010 Scania coach captured is heading non-stop through Foxton at 6.32pm on the run to Wellington.
