哈哈，兔子，我们很有共识，本来这次圣诞节我们也要去里斯本，可后来去了巴塞罗那，现在里斯本仍然排在前面。我有几个朋友去年刚刚去过，他们说不错，开车去里斯本不远的海边，就是欧洲大陆的最西端，到那一游很值得。

其实对小妞来说，丹麦的Lego land很适合她，我2001年带孩子去过，孩子也就4，5岁，玩得不想回家，那里所有的东西都是Lego做的，离Lego land不远，有一个小动物园，再开去哥本哈根，那里有一个游乐场，据说是世界上最老的游乐场，Tivoli这个名字就是从那里来的，我不知这种说法是否确切，但我觉得这个游乐场不适合小孩子，适合大人去那儿聚会喝一杯聊聊天看看夜景，它的门票不贵，但每个活动项目都要另外收费。我印象中丹麦的过桥费很贵，从Lego land到哥本哈根好像要过好几座大桥。在哥本哈根开车不到一小时的地方有个游乐场叫BONBON-LAND, 很适合小孩子，我们在那里玩了一天，比哥本哈根的Tivoli好玩多了。

兔子，专门到北欧去塔林是不值得的，但是到了赫尔辛基或斯德哥尔摩顺道去一次是可以的，很快很方便，顺便体验一下北欧的游轮。除了美人鱼诺贝尔奖，北欧还有三样东西是其它地方看不到的，冰岛的火山岩，瑞典的北极光，挪威的峡湾。

Ratsapotheke) is in the center of Tallinn city, Estonia.
Opposite the Town Hall, at house number 11, it is one of the oldest continuously running pharmacies in Europe, having always been in business in the same exact house since the early 15th century. It is also the oldest commercial enterprise and the oldest medical establishment in Tallinn.
The first known image of the Town-Hall Pharmacy is an oil-painting by Oldekop, showing Tallinn's Town Hall Square in 1800. The first photos of the building date from 1889.

History

Historians have not been able to determine when exactly the pharmacy opened, but the oldest records available show that the Raeapteek was already on its third owner in 1422. Some scholars consider the opening year to be 1415.
In a town council's notebook, there is an entry by a chemist named Nuclawes who stated that the owners of the pharmacy are 10 honourable men, the majority of whom are aldermen. Other documents dated after 1422 refer that the first chemist here was Johann Molner and that medicines were already being sold at the pharmacy in the second half of the 15th century.
[edit] The Burchart (Burchard) family: 1582–1911
The Burchart (Burchard) family are those most closely associated with the pharmacy's history, having run the business for over 10 generations, spanning over 325 years from around 1582 to 1911.
Between 1579 and 1581, a Hungarian immigrant named Johann Burchart Belavary de Sykava, moved to Tallinn from his home town of Pressburg (present day Bratislava) and obtained a lease from the city council to run the business of the pharmacy. He was to be the first in a long dynasty of pharmacists that were to run the Raeapteek.
He also started the family tradition of giving the first born son the name "Johann" who was always expected to carry on the family business. This tradition was carried on for eight further generations, until the late 19th century with the birth of the tenth first born son in 1843 called Johann X Burchart.
The Burcharts were well educated and often were not only pharmacists but also doctors. They played a significant role in the life of the town.
In 1688, Johann Burchart the IV finally was able to purchase the pharmacy from the city council for 600 thalers. In 1690, the Burchart dynasty and Town-Hall Apothecary's rights and obligations were confirmed with a privilege written by the ruling king Charles XI of Sweden.
In 1710, Johann Burchart V started his career while Tallinn was being ravaged by the Black Plague. When Tallinn capitulated to the Russian army in the Great Northern War, he was one of the first to provide the Russian army with medicines. In 1716, he became the town doctor and the doctor of the garrison and the naval hospital.
The fame of the Burchart family became so great that in 1725 even the Russian Tsar Peter the Great supposedly called for Johann Burchart VI to attend to him on his deathbed, but he died before Burchart reached St. Petersburg.
In 1802, Johann Burchart VIII established a private museum of local life and curiosities calling it "Mon faible". Several items from his collection are now displayed in the Estonian History Museum. In 1802, he organized the first art exhibition in Tallinn.
The last two Burcharts were men of ill health, who could not supervise the pharmacy and leased it out to others again. The Burcharts rule over the pharmacy came to an end in the 1890s with the death of the last male heir of the named Johann X Burchart. The sisters of Johann X sold the property in 1911 to C.R. Lehbert, ending the family run business which had lasted for ten generations.
[edit] 1944–1991

This section requires expansion. (October 2007)

During the second occupation of Baltic states, the pharmacy was nationalized.
[edit] 1991 to present
After 1990, the entire pharmacy underwent extensive refurbishment as the building had been neglected for almost 50 years. This refurbishment lasted over 10 years until 2003.
Presently the main part of the pharmacy is located on the first floor and sells most modern medicines, including aspirin, and even supplies condoms.
There is an antiques shop on the ground floor and in 1999 a garlic restaurant called "Balthasar" was opened on the second floor.

兔子，

每年10周? 50个工作日，等于二个月多，荷兰的福利真是把其它欧洲国家远远地甩在后面了。

一个建议，孩子小的时候最好不要开着房车去露营地，因为露营地的条件不是星级宾馆可以比的，孩子小，抵抗力差，10岁以后基本没问题。我在孩子3岁不到时体验了一把，结果是第一夜孩子就生病半夜挂急诊，全家狼狈不堪，幸好值班医生听说我们住在露营地，动了恻隐之心，收住我们在当地的医院，孩子他爸爸费尽周折找到一家有空房的旅馆，才解燃眉之急。
