Time is flying ... already one week on Madeira


View from our room - the mornings are misty and fresh, but when the sun breaks through, we can clearly see the ‘Deserted Islands’, that can be reached by boat from Santa Cruz in half an hour.


Yesterday we  went to Santa Cruz, a small and cozy town some 15 kms from our hotel.  

There is only one airport on Madeira - on top of the flat mountain at the horizon.  The airstrip is  very, very short and makes landing quite scary.


Almost summertime - in February.
Amazing pavements throughout the whole town - the black parts are cut from lava.

Communal lady workers cleaning the stony beach from weeds.
There are two ‘‘canals’ leading water from town into the sea.
They are of hidden by Bourgainvillas in all shades of red.
