Where to go in May

Europe, great for a spontaneous city break

In the last month before the summer starts, you can visit the huge set of countries in Europe. Higher temperatures are already covered the whole continent and there are less rainy days, which is ideal for a spontaneous city break.

You can catch the last football matches in Barcelona, admire the jewels of Renaissance in Florence, enjoy a glass of excellent whiskey in Scotland or get into the shopping spree at the world-famous bazaar in Istanbul. Of course, there are already nice high temperatures at the south for strolling on the beach. You can choose between the bunch of Greek islands, Malta, Portugal or Israel, especially Tel Aviv.

Evropa, odlična za spontan city break

V zadnjem mesecu pred začetkom poletja je v Evropi nabor držav, ki jih lahko obiščete ogromen. Višje temperature zajamejo že celoten kontinent in deževnih dni je vse manj, kar je idealno za spontan city break.

Ujamete lahko še zadnje nogometne tekme v Barceloni, občudujete plodove renesanse v Firencah, si privoščite kozarec odličnega viskija na Škotskem ali pobrskate po svetovno znanem bazarju v Istanbulu. Seveda pa na jugu vladajo že super temperature za poležavanje na plaži – zbirate lahko med grškimi otoki, Malto, Portugalsko ali se odpravite v Izrael, natančneje v Tel Aviv.

Kam na potovanje aprila

V Sloveniji se v tem pomladnem mesecu po navadi že tradicionalno soočamo z dežjem in slabim vremenom, zato vse to kar kliče po izletu ali potovanju na kakšen drugi konec sveta. Spodaj sva izpostavila nekaj destinacij, katere je najbolje obiskati v aprilu. Razlog za obisk so lahko že prave poletne temperature, neskončna polja raznobarvnih rožic ali belo cvetoči drevoredi – izbira je vaša!

Odpovedan let, podaljšan dopust in filmski resort v Varaderu

Najboljše sva pustila za konec, bilo je tako enkratno, da sva ostala še dva dodatna dneva, ampak o tem kasneje 🙂 22 kilometrov čudovite peščene plaže, ki se razteza čez celotno dolžino polotoka na severu države je glavni razlog za obisk Varadera ali mesta barvastih zapestnic. Tukaj ne gre za umetniški unikatni nakit, temveč za plastične zapestnice s katerimi all inclusive hoteli in resorti ožigosajo svoje goste.

Mesto je ustvarjeno za turiste, en kup ogromnih hotelov, na vsakem koraku stojnice s spominki in ceste polne taxiijev. Temu primerne so tudi cene, ki so bistveno višje kot drugod po otoku, kar se pozna tako v restavracijah in barih kot tudi na raznoraznih stojnicah. V svoj žep pa moraš seči še posebej zeeelo globoko, v kolikor se želiš razvajati v enem izmed hotelskih kompleksov. Za nočitve računajo krepko nad 100 evrov, kar je seveda bistveno več kot je cena nočitve v casi.

Canceled flight, extended vacation and gorgeous resort in Varadero

We saved best for last, it was so good, that we stayed two extra days, but about this later 🙂 22 kilometers of beautiful sandy beach, which stretches across the entire length of the peninsula on the north side of the county, is the main reason for visiting Varadero or so-called city of colored bracelets. Forget about unique artistic jewelry, those are plastic bracelets worn by all-inclusive guest from various hotels and resorts.

The city is created for tourists, bunch of huge hotels, stalls with souvenirs on every step and roads full of taxis. The prices here are significantly higher than on the rest of the island, which is reflected not only in restaurants and bars but also on stalls. You have to go deep in your pockets if you want to indulge yourself in one of those hotels. You will have to spend more than 100 € per night, which is of course a lot more than you would paid for a night in casa.

Santa Clara – Hasta la Victoria Siempre

No, pa sva ga dočakala tudi na Kubi, najinega zvestega sopotnika, dež. Z vsakim kilometrom iz Trinidada proti Santa Clari je postajalo vse bolj črno in na koncu naju je ujel ravno, ko sva vsa natovorjena pešačila proti casi. In ne ni bila samo ploha temveč je padalo skoraj dva dni skupaj, zato so se nama plani malce porušili.

Kljub temu sva uspela videti kip Che Guevare, njegov mavzolej pa je bil zaradi dežja oziroma vlage zaprt do naslednjega sončnega dne. Kubanska logika 🙂 Verjetno vsi poznate tega tipa, če ne od drugod pa iz majice, ki jo je nosil eden od vaših srednješolskih sošolcev. Cheja na Kubi še vedno častijo kot boga, po njem so poimenovane ulice, njegova podoba je na spominkih, v čast so mu postavili ogromno kipov in ob avtocestah stojijo jumbo plakati z njegovim portretom in slavnim sloganom Hasta la victoria siempre! Zgodba o tem je kar kompleksna in je ne bova razlagala.. v kolikor pa imate željo pa se lahko sami poglobite v zgodovinske učbenike.

Santa Clara – Hasta la Victoria Siempre

Well, here it is, our beloved and faithful companion, rain. With each passing mile from Trinidad to Santa Clara was getting more darker and in the end the rain finally caught us when we were walking to our casa. And no, it wasn’t just a quick shower, but it rained for almost 2 whole days, so our plans literally fall in water.

Nevertheless, we manage to see the statue of Che Guevara, his mausoleum was closed due to rain or moisture until next sunny day. Cuban logic 🙂 You all probably know this person, if not from elsewhere, you definitely saw him on a shirt worn by one of your classmates in high school. Che is still worshiped as a god in Cuba; in honor of him, they named streets, build statues, post jumbo posters along the highway with his portrait and his famous slogan Hasta la Victoria siempre! The story about him is complex, so we will not talk about it… but you can always check some history textbooks if you are interested in those stories.

The national sport in Trinidad

From the coastal Cienfuegos, we again took a taxi and went to the most eastern point of our journey through Cuba, Trinidad. Oh, no worries, this time the drive was far more humane than the last one 🙂

A small town founded in the mid-19th century on the riches, brought by the nearby sugar cane plantations, still retains its authenticity and it seems like, in spite of flood of tourist, time stopped here. Therefore, we were not surprised when we were woken up at four in the morning by the rooster, at five by cats who were looking for their partners and at six by hosts Chihuahua.

Nacionalni šport v Trinidadu

Iz obalnega Cienfuegosa sva se s zopet s taxijem odpravila na najbolj vzhodno točko najinega potovanja po Kubi, v Trinidad. Da vas ne bo skrbelo, tokrat sva vožnjo preživljala v precej bolj humanih pogojih 🙂

Majhno mesto – ustanovljeno na začetku 16. stol. na bogastvu, ki ga je prinašal sladkor iz bližnjih plantaž sladkornega trsa – še danes kljub vsej poplavi turistov ohranja svojo pristnost. Imela sva občutek, da se je tukaj ustavil čas, zato nisva bila nič kaj presenečena, ko so naju ob štirih zjutraj s kikirikanjem zbudili petelini, ob petih cviljenje in zavijanje mačk, uro kasneje pa še lajež gostiteljeve čivave. Celo životinsko carstvo.
