We hopped on board our coach and toured here for a few hours, on what is a beautiful Island. We went up to the second highest costal cliff face in the world, it has a glass floor walkway out over the water, of which I couldn’t bring myself to walk on, but Sharon did (but I did take pictures hanging over it). I didn’t get to document the trip as much as I would have liked, as our coach window was double glazed, but moisture was trapped between them and it basically whited out our view, and unfortunately it was a full coach, so nowhere else to sit. Still, there were some amazing vistas from many vantage points, high in the mountains all around. The port of Funchal, was a wonderful experience, very classy and relaxed, with great architecture, old and new, a fusion of resort feel and a cosmopolitan heart. The main area of town, was closed off to traffic, and tree lined pedestrian areas, with historic buildings, the place was just buzzing,the pictures don’t do this place justice!
