In the past, they were called the Islands of the Gods, today they are compared to the Caribbean. The three beauties of the Atlantic Islands National Park of Galicia are Sur o San Martiño, Del Medio o do Farol and Norte o Monteagudo - the Cíes Islands. The Cíes Archipelago (Illas Cíes) is located on the northwest coast of Spain. The water that laps the beaches here is turquoise and crystal clear, the sand is wonderfully loose and white, and the landscape is made up of eucalyptus and pine forests, rocky cliffs and numerous coves.

For the last days of summer or the "golden Polish autumn", I recommend a one-day trip: Pieskowa Skała - Ojców . For me it was the last trip before winter. Anyway, we can see the autumn aura in the pictures. The first mention of Pieskowa Skała (Peskenstein) appears for the first time in 1315, in a document issued by Władysław Łokietek. It is probably a wooden fortress founded by Henryk the Bearded in the area of today's village of Sułoszowa. Casimir the Great built on the present site in the first half of the 14th century royal castle, as another link in the defensive chain of "eagles' nests". The upper castle on Dorotka's Rock was destroyed in a fire in 1850 and collapsed three years later. The lower castle, rebuilt and changing owners many times, was taken over by the Ministry of Culture and Art in 1949. Under the supervision of prof. Dr. Alfred Majewski, restoration works were carried out, thanks to which the castle acquires its present appearance.

The holiday season is slowly coming to an end, but this does not mean that it is not worth considering buying accessories that will also be useful during short weekend trips - and above all, next year's holidays. More and more people, not only caravanning enthusiasts, decide to spend their free time as actively as possible. One of the forms of relaxation is the intensive sightseeing of the surrounding monuments. Sports is equally popular. Cycling is an interesting proposition for both the elderly and very active people. Riding on two wheels driven only by the strength of our muscles, unlike running, does not burden the joints and the spine. At the same time, taking care of physical fitness, we can admire little-known areas from a bicycle saddle.

The right amount of wine from each lioness will make a cat. Bastet, an ancient Egyptian goddess who was once perfidiously deceived, knows something about it. Stereotypes. Seemingly wrong, sometimes even harmful, but often repeated. According to them, cats are capricious and self-interested, and a woman, like Mickiewicz's miserable fluff, is a changeable creature. What can arise from the combination of the nature of two such unpredictable creatures - a woman and a cat? Certainly an explosive mixture.

Thanks to modern technology, traveling in a motorhome or car with a caravan can be not only more pleasant, but also safer. A modern multimedia system combined with a special set of maps and cameras can become a convenient command center during each, small and large, expedition. Anyone who is interested in caravanning a little knows the Dometic / Waeco brands. However, not everyone knows that among accessories for motorhomes you can find not only individual elements supporting safety, but also entire systems for navigation, reversing and multimedia. The manufacturer has combined its cameras and other components with Blaupunkt devices and maps, and the result of this cooperation are ready-made and versatile sets.

A solutions provider for the automotive industry has unveiled a prototype vehicle that is capable of parking automatically using only Surround View cameras.

Beer garden by the lake or under the huge Chinese tower? Naked sunbathing in the middle of town? All this can be found in Munich, in the largest English garden in Europe. The best time to visit the green wonder of Munich is spring and summer, but it is also worth visiting in winter and leave behind the memories of the cold and snow. We are talking about the beautiful Englischer Garten - the English Garden, which has been a public park for over two centuries. It is not only a favorite place of rest and recreation for the inhabitants of the beer capital of Germany. It is also the largest facility of this type in Europe, and at the same time one of the oldest in the world.

The Webasto panoramic infrared-absorbing roof was awarded the Plus X 2015 award. The product was appreciated by the jury in the categories of Innovation and High Quality. The award-winning Webasto panoramic roofs are made of lightweight polycarbonate plastic (Makrolon® manufactured by Bayer MaterialScience). One of the main advantages of the roof system is its ability to absorb solar energy, which prevents the car interior from heating up too much. The ability to absorb infrared is also ecologically beneficial. Less heating of the car interior reduces the need for air conditioning, which in turn reduces fuel consumption. The innovative roof system is another milestone in the development of solutions that ensure comfort for all passengers.
