Flour Power

The Google car is roaming around Portugal to add imagery to the Google Maps’ Street View. Needless to say, some unusual situations have been captured, and some people with too much time on their hands found them. And I’m glad they did, otherwise we wouldn’t have access to this:

And the best one so far features a monument by a famous Portuguese Sculptor – João Cutileiro – that makes the whole thing even funnier (it would be even better if the fountain was on…):

This last one was already removed from Google Maps…

Looking forward to getting some more of these

Ryanair announced it will open its 33rd base at Porto. The base will have 2 new aircraft and 4 new routes. This represents an investment of $140 million (about €100 million) and will increase Ryanair’s traffic at Porto to 1.5 million passengers per year, which will sustain 1.500 jobs.

Basel, Eindhoven, St Etienne and Tours are the 4 new routes, and along with the doubling of flights to Paris Beauvais (to twice daily), Ryanair will be offering 50 daily return flights to/from Porto.

And to celebrate:

Ryanair celebrated its new Porto base, two new aircraft, 16 routes and 1.5 million passengers by releasing 1 million €9 seats for travel across its European network for travel in late August, September and October which are available for booking on www.ryanair.com until midnight Sunday (5^th July).

Now what I want to ask now is: what about Lisbon?! Get those open minded flight attendants to the capital as well…
