A glass of port with a view
I’ve already posted this on Google+ and now it’s time to share it in the blog.
This is my second entry for the Near & Far weekly photo challenge at WordPress. The photo was shot at Hotel Do Caracol in Terceira, Açores, Portugal. In the background you can see Monte Brasil, a peninsula located on the south coast of Terceira Island in the central Azores Islands, near the city of Angra do Heroísmo.

Your shot make me think of the danish word “hygge” – it isn’t easy to translate that word, but it means relaxed, happy, satisfy, plesant and a lot more…
September 8, 2012 at 08:34
We have the same word in Norwegian. I guess you can say that it’s a kind of a mix between pleasure and cosiness.

…and yum.

We brought some very nice port wine home. Portugal is just an excellent country.

A glass of port or a glass of wine is always good.

I love the P.O.V. in the light in the hallway photo in your previous post, and this one is a great “travel” photo. Makes me wish I was sitting right there enjoying the view, and a nice beverage
