Fairytale winter in Helsinki
Where it is good to have a rest in the winter is in Helsinki. Fabulously beautiful city in the winter. Not very cold. A lot of interesting activities for this time of year. We drove in mid-December.
What is Helsinki before Christmas? These are many Christmas markets where you can buy various handmade gifts and souvenirs, Christmas sweets and much more. At this time, in each store discounts reaching up to 70%. The main thing is not to get lost in time visiting the malls. And remember that there are fairs where an admission ticket may be required. And do not forget to visit the legendary Stockmann shopping center. It has everything from products to jewelry. This is where you can get lost for the whole day.
The most important thing is to allocate time and choose when and where to go. We chose light time for visiting museums and attractions, evening time for rest and the last 2 two days instead of rest we were doing shopping. Continue reading
Family holidays in Berdyansk
The sun is merciless, but it’s important these days to warm up and poke in the sea so as not to get sick in winter. Everyone was free from work and study, so there is nothing to worry about, you can calmly leisurely revel in ease.
The water has warmed up perfectly, so swimming with great pleasure. Placed in the private sector, service at altitude, clean, well-groomed, fed, there are playgrounds for children, parking, internet. Around the rooms there are flowers, there is a fountain and a small lake, many gazebos where you can sit in the evening to drink tea or eat ice cream.
They always took extra clothes with them, because the guys with us would suddenly get colder, just in case they took the necessary medicines, and of course, more money. Continue reading
Awesome vacation with friends in Odessa
This spring, I was fortunate enough to spend almost a month on vacation in Odessa, in the capital of humor and the sun. I just parted with the previous job and have not yet got a new job, so I was able to come to South Palmyra for the whole of May. Fortunately, my friends said that I can stay with them for free. Maybe I was lucky, but already in May, my vacation was as resort-like as possible and included bathing and sunbathing, the weather did not differ from the summer, but the influx of tourists was not there yet, because the beaches were as clean as possible. Therefore, I sincerely believe that going to Odessa in May is the best idea if the weather permits, and if you are not cold.
I opened the swimming season here on April 30th, they also bathed on May Day, like the whole month of May after that. The water temperature in early May was approximately 20 degrees, which for me was already quite comfortable.
As I said, I stayed with friends, but they, as locals, oriented me to the future, where it is best to stay in the city. Continue reading
A wonderful family vacation in Side in June
We decided this year to go to Side in June. Why in June? Yes, because the heat there at this time is not so “wild”, and the temperature is comfortable enough. Looking ahead, I’ll say that we did not fail, and the temperature above + 30 + 32 degrees did not rise, and the water temperature was very comfortable, in the region of +25 degrees constantly. Plus, there were almost no waves on the sea, and given that our five-star Club Side Coast hotel had its own sandy beach, then everything was just super! No jellyfish to you, the water is clear and clean, despite the sandy beach – it’s just a miracle! All sorts of fish came, but they did not cause discomfort. By the way, the hotel is very decent, especially in terms of “price-quality”, a good pool – here are its photos.
Why in side? Yes, in principle, we did not live entirely in Side, but in the Cholakli district, where there are a lot of hotels and a great coast. And in Side he went, both on an excursion, and on his own. Side is worth it to come and so and so. Continue reading
Youth Holidays in Alanya
In early September, we flew to rest in Turkey for 6 days. We did not choose the best month, but the one on which we were given a vacation. There was unbearable heat at the resort, and when we got off the plane we wanted to go back.
We stayed at the three star Clab Sea Time Hotel. There was amazing animation, a very varied buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In addition, the territory was treated to watermelons, grilled meat, pastries. Disco by the pool and entertainment near the beach. The only drawback of this hotel is the rooms. We got a small one with one bed, a cupboard, and a wardrobe. The walls of the room are plastered in white. The second time we will not go to this hotel.
For excursions, I recommend visiting Cappadocia. A two-day trip to a historic city, costing 5300 rubles per person. The price includes meals, one night in the department with a swimming pool, trips to various beautiful places of the city, a visit to the underground cave. For an additional fee of $ 140 per person, you can fly in a balloon or have fun in a restaurant for $ 40 with a snack and alcohol, learn about local traditions, and become a member of the colorful performance of the peoples of Turkey.
