Just For the Reccord, The Azores suck
 

Trust me on this one guys... it's like West Virginia rural, and the people don't speak english, or french, or german, or even portugeese... The language sounds like Spanish spoken with a mouthfull of carpet tacks. Don't be fooled by the pictures, the only pictures you will see of this place is of the ocean taken from the shore, because no one wants to turn the camera around and snap a few photos of the 120,000 begging semi-homeless people that inhabit this crap-hole. Enough about that rant...

Well, speaking as someone of part-Portuguese descent, I can tell you that nearly all the Portuguese and Portuguese-Americans on my stretch of the west coast come from the Azores not mainland Portugal. And there are a lot of them out here. I suppose that if it were all that good on the Azores, nobody would have left.

Great Point...

Were you expecting people to speak englsh?

was there no crack available, crackprogram?
j/k

were you there on holidays, or were you there for business?

this doesn´t surprise me, most tiny island nations are not equiped as decent holiday destinations... they are more suited to the more budget, intrepid holiday makers... (or in the case of my home island, pensioner holiday makers)...

When I read the title of the thread I thought to myself,
The Azores are teh Sux0rz.

I've been spending too much time online.

I am here on business, (US Goverment), and yes, I did expect them to speak a little English, or at least Portugeese...

And a Friend of mine was just telling me how much he loved the Azores. Other than the fact they didn't speak English, what else didn't you like?
