Atlântico Azul - Paixão pelo Mar

Atlantic Blue. A blog with the scent of the sea breeze and the freshness of the Atlantic Ocean. A place where Dreams are linked to reality, where Happiness is formed like the waves on the Sea, according to the tides and the Moon... ATLÂNTICO AZUL, ONDE O MAR É MAIS LUSITANO. Um blogue com o cheiro da maresia e a frescura do Atlântico. Um espaço em que o sonho se funde com a realidade, em que a Felicidade se forma como as ondas do Oceano. Ao sabor das marés e da Lua.

Raquel Sabino Pereira said...: Thanks a lot, guys, you are great with your comments and make my day...

MB: No.. in spite of all efforts... Now, to be saved, we would need lots of cash, which unfortunatelly I don't have. Governments have, though. But they don't care for the People, let alone Ships...; February 27, 2009 at 1:33 PM

miradouro das cruzes said...: Caro Amigo,
Lamentável! Vivemos uma época de luxúria em que dá para destruir navios a qualquer preço. Nunca acreditei no projecto para o Porto de Hamburgo do "Maxim Gorkiy", mas enquanto havia vida haveria esperança. O dinheiro fala sempre mais alto ...; February 27, 2009 at 9:21 PM
