O PORTO DE PONTA DELGADA EM LIVRO

Veio parar hoje às minhas mãos este excelente livro que conta toda a história deste porto açoriano. Pena que a sua autora, Fátima Sequeira Dias não tenha vivido o tempo suficiente para ver este projecto nos escaparates. Trata-se de um excelente trabalho de pesquisa, desde o primeiro projecto à sua conclusão desta obra. Que pena a Madeira não seguir este tipo de exemplo!

ARKADIA

Sempre tive uma "simpatia" pelos navios da Greek Line. Gostava de os ver chegar ao porto do Funchal, altura em que Arkadia, Queen Anna Maria ou Olympia embelezavam a nossa baía.
