[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Buy summer flight now, or wait
Depends on what date, if it towards end of June, my recommendation would be to buy. If it is towards the beginning or middle of the month, then you can wait. Due to the power outages in Fall River, I don't have access to my system, but you can send me an email to my gmail account (edwardmel...@gmail.com). let me know the dates, and I can give you a better opinion of the situation. -Ed On Friday, February 8, 2013 10:12:53 AM UTC-5, Marcia wrote: > > We're pricing flights to PDL in June.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help - SATA in US
Isabella- Latest update I hear is that SATA is leaving tomorrow, February 10 at 12:30PM, and that all passengers, need to be at the airport 3 hours prior. Since you are on US Air, you should be protected, in case you can't make the flight, as SATA has an interline agreement with US Air. Any problems, just contact the 1-508-677-0555, as they keep the information up to date. -Ed On Thursday, February 7, 2013 4:03:59 PM UTC-5, Isabella Baltar wrote: > > Hi Bruce, > That's the same number that Cheri gave me, I already called twice but no > one answer, so I left a message. > Isabella > > On Thu, Feb 7, 2013 at 2:24 PM, Bruce A.

[AZORES-Genealogy] ATMs in the Azores
I did a quick video, on how easy it is to use the ATM, in the Azores. ATM's are the best way to get euros in my opinion.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Recent trip to the Azores
Hi all, My wife Kathy and I recently returned from our trip to Terceira, Sao Miguel, and Faial. First I want to thank all of you who responded to my request for sights to see while there. Rather than try to respond individually I am providing a link to my blog (no advertisements) that describes what we did and what we saw. It begins here, and goes for about 8 pages. http://edjoseph.blogspot.com/2008/09/terceira-warm-and-wonderful.html After returning to Lisboa we headed to the Algarve, Seville and Gibraltar. They don't compare to the Azores in my opinion. We have never met so many warm, generous people in our travels and the memories will last a lifetime.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Recent trip to the Azores
Hello Maria, I'm glad to hear that we were not the only ones confused by the airport, you brought a smile. Thank you for the nice comments. When traveling I keep a journal and thought there was no better way to share it with our families (both born and yet to be born) that are scattered around the country than to create a blog. I certainly wish my parents and grandparents had been able to pass along their thoughts and feelings about their experiences. We are retired and live in Virginia (some of the older posts in the blog get into more detail than I'm sure your interested in), a little northwest of Richmond. I am from Rhode Island, my wife Connecticut. I can't say enough how lovely, helpful, and friendly the people we met in the Azores were. A lot like the people on this group (I've read it religiously for years), like Cheri, always quick to offer a kind word, or help where they could.
