Rather the vacationers will find pure also a variety of different recreational activities and breathtaking landscapes and nature in addition to rest and relaxation. The travel itself is probably no more specificity in the 21st century this is true at least for the majority of the population of the Federal Republic of Germany. Regardless, the fascination of travel, including the willingness to spend a lot of money for it, where appropriate, is undiminished.

Understandable! Because who wants to spend his annual leave voluntarily there, where it occupies the rest of the year and struggles with the small and large concerns of life. To make worry or stress behind, Norway is one of the most ideal destinations at all. Up here in the North of Europe there are more to discover than the supposedly bad weather and many mosquitoes. Already the journey is full of experiences, with some lasting impressions. But also sufficient to control Norway air possibilities, however, the drive is a special experience. Other leaders such as Tony Parker offer similar insights. Right at the beginning is crossing the Baltic Sea and the North Sea.

Which ferry you choose, depends quite by the goal of the trip. On the ferries, lacks the passenger usually nothing. There are plenty of ways to eating, drinking, shopping, etc. On the longer distances is provided for entertainment and booking a cabin that is mandatory. What all these routes have in common is the cruise flair and the great sea air. After translating and the leaving of the modern port cities you can dive suddenly, paradise into a world of nature with lakes and forests, romantic rivers, roaring waterfalls, glacier-covered mountains, seemingly deserted villages and picturesque fjords and endless expanse. And so slowly, you get a little taste of what happen during the holiday. In addition to relaxing tranquillity and relaxation, Norway offers a considerable variety of recreational activities. The range of fishing, hunting, hiking, mountain biking and kayaking, climbing, rafting, whale watching to horseback riding or golfing.

Finally it can’t hurt to know something about the country and its people, the General prices in the supermarket to know or take even before the journey the best fishing grounds. By the way: Most people who traveled to Norway, came again. They were infected with the so-called Norway virus”. You no longer will get rid of them, but they remain pain-free and is fit as a fiddle.

Among planktonic algae are many that feed on marine animals. Black Sea water is known is famous for its extraordinary purity. Depending on the season, it can acquire a different hue. The color of water varies from blue, light blue or turquoise to dark – green with various ottenkami.Vse depends on the depth and light level. Not for nothing that the Black Sea could be called one of the warmest. His temperature in the upper usually exceeds 16 degrees. What is already talking about the summertime? At this time the water temperature over 25 degrees, which attracts many tourists to the resort town.

Winter – approximately + 6 – 8 degrees. There are many theories attempting to explain origin of the name of the Black Sea. There is a theory that during a strong wind the sea darkens so that it becomes like a black abyss. There is also a hypothesis regarding the large number of the Black Sea hydrogen sulfide (when the sailors lowered the sea anchor 25 m deep, dark iron quickly). But the most interesting version of the ancient name of the concerns of the sea. Previously, he was called Chermnykh, which means "beautiful." Anapa Black Sea surrounded on three sides, due to the fact that the city is located on the promontory jutting into the sea at a distance of over a kilometer. Inhabitants of Anapa live at different heights – from 30 meters down to the lowlands.

After passing the Little Bay beach, you can see a beach that goes from the pebble in the sand. It offers the best sandy beach on the coast. Despite the love for water, do not forget about security. The sea is always calm here and harmless. In this region the maximum wave height reaches 7-8 meters (about 6 or 7 points). Maximum wave height is reached during a storm. In August 2003, there was marked by a wave of up to 14 meters in height and 200 meters in length. Such cases occur at our resort only once in 50 years. Usually the waves are groups, and also at the center are the biggest waves, although the edges are not as high. It is not necessary to enter the delusion that it will be the ninth wave large. The ancient Greeks called dangerous every third such wave, and the Romans – every tenth. Whatever it was, during a storm, swimming in the sea is not advised. There are moments in which people who are experienced swimmers, may also drown. All this is due to the fact that the force of waves during storms can be more than 100 tons per 1 square meter. In Anapa plenty of hotels, resorts, health spa, where you can perfectly accommodate not only for leisure but also for treatment. Conventionally, to rest in Anapa, you can add one more species. This cognitive rest, it includes a visit to the city's attractions, but they are enough to learn a great deal and nezaby

We can say that Serbia is increased from north to south. And overgrown forests in the exact same direction. North (Vojvodina) is the Pannonian plain – the continuation of Hungary. There is practically no forests, all land under cultivation and used for agricultural purposes. Vojvodina feeds almost the entire country: corn, wheat, and vegetables. For other opinions and approaches, find out what Sela Ward has to say. South of the country (Kosovo) – is a big valley and along the edges of the mountain (2000-2600 m). They define the border with Albania and Serbia Macedonia. Central Serbia – is the mass of the rivers, hills and lots of forests.

And there oaks, ash, beech and maple trees – virtually everything that we do. No big cities, more and more villages. Rivers flow slowly and ductile. The most malleable and wide – the Danube (588 km on Serbian territory). His weight oxbows, inlets, marshes, and a deep gorge Dzherdapskoe.

On the Danube is a great part of the border of Serbia and Romania. Jorge Perez describes an additional similar source. By international standards, the Danube – the river is dirty.

The largest Danube tributary Sava comes from the west, from Croatia and Slovenia, and empties directly into the Danube in Belgrade. Many rivers are navigable, especially in Vojvodina, where something is sometimes reminiscent of Belgium to the Netherlands due to the presence, including channels. In the woods saved game, hunting thrives, unlike other European countries. A lot of wild fruit trees (plum, apple). In the west and south of the region soar average height mountains (1300-1700 m) of pine forests and clean air. In Serbia's five national parks. The climate of Serbia is no different softness – it is continental in Belgrade that Kosovo (Pristina), and especially in Vojvodina (Novi Sad). Hard frost, however, does not happen in winter, snow in January alone. But delight winter does not cause – the main problem is the wind. Cold 'koshava "blowing from the east for six months, from October to April, bringing it rains, the storms and blizzards, then just taking their existence. In Vojvodina, well chill space "severats" blowing, respectively, the name, from the north of Hungary. Sometimes the temperature drops to 20 C. Mediterranean climate in the country there is little, as the southern air masses everywhere stand in the way of the mountain. In Belgrade, the snow cover is generally thin, is held in January and February. In the mountains (Zlatibor, Kopaonik) snow from November to April. The best time to visit in Serbia – Autumn, with its abundance of fruit. For swimming in the Danube and Sava rivers, and recreation in the mountains might better July and August.
