Some favorites

I've about 230 cards in my favorites cards album and today i got 4 of them... not bad ;) These are from Susana "sushis".

"Almería is the capital of the province of Almería, Spain. It is located in southeastern Spain on the Mediterranean Sea.
Its Moorish castle, Alcazaba, is the second largest among the Muslim fortresses of Andalusia after the Alhambra." - in: wikipedia

"The Castle of Cardona is probably the most important medieval fortress in the province of Catalonia, Spain. It is situated on a hill overlooking the river valley of the Cardener and the town of Cardona.
The fortress was initially constructed by Wilfred the Hairy in 886. It is in both the Romanesque and Gothic styles.
Today, the fort's main jewel is the torre de la minyona (from the 11th century) a tower which measures 15 meters in height and 10 meters in diameter. Additionally, there is the romanesque church of Sant Vicenç de Cardona adjacent to the fort. The fort is currently used as a parador, or state-run luxury hotel." - in:

Saint-Malo is a walled port city in Brittany in northwestern France on the English Channel.
Saint-Malo became notorious as the home of the corsairs, French privateers and sometimes pirates. The corsairs of Saint-Malo not only forced English ships passing up the Channel to pay tribute, but also brought wealth from further afield.
St-Malo is the most visited place in Brittany, thanks more to its superb old citadelle. From outside the walls, the dignified ensemble of the old city might seem stern and forbidding, but passing through into the streets within the walls brings you into a busy, lively and very characterful town, packed with hotels, restaurants, bars and shops.

You'll find information about this place in Brazil a few post below.
