HOLIDAYS
PART I - SEIXAS, "THE HEADQUARTER"
This summer I spent 3 days in a friend's house in Seixas, a friendly village up north.

While reachind the village we found this tiles saying "slowly begins Seixas".

This is the church and the pillory in Seixas.

I had to photograph the tiles!!


As you can see, the interior of the church isn't bad for such a small village. It was a good surprise for me!

This is one of the creepiest things I've seen in a few... Those wax figures are promises that people make to saints. Every wax figure represents the part of the body which was sick and got better.

The tiles on the inside of the church.

And the ceiling. Actually it was very beautiful.

The church is in this nice square. It's renewd and looking very friendly.

Right next to that square it's "Villa Idalina", a very beautiful house.

I really love the tiles in this house.

They are so lovely.

And just check out the name written on the tiles!!

And at the end this "cata-vento" to see where the wind blows.

And this little fellow was in my friend's house too! He was a nice model and haven't even moved a bit when the flash snapped out!!

This house we actually don't really know what it is. We think it's a particular house... It's on a old way to get from Seixas to Vila Nova de Cerveira.

u really love tiles, girls
As we found out the last house is actually a house and not a church... But I know nothing concrete about it...
Tiles are very traditional here. But people of my age don't usually care much for them... I do cause my mum likes it a lot and I got used to looking for tiles and photographing it...
