• Take me to your leader! I enjoyed my two weeks on this Portuguese island, even whilst being held-up in the Botanical gardens above Funchal
• A shot taken in the Casino Gardens in Monte. You'll be sure to let me know if I start to go on a bit, won't you?
• Traditional houses on the north coast are built to take the winds coming off of the Atlantic... And for tourists to gawk at.
• More Monte. As there are no golden beaches (the island was volcanic, so all the beaches are black) none of the 'riff-raff' element comes here. Except me.
• Judith admiring the view across The Valley of the Nuns, which sounds to me like the title of a very 3rd rate porno movie. And who knows, perhaps it is?
• On the only flat bit of the island, Judith regretted never having bought a head scarf.
• A not-at-all-flat bit of the island - path between it's two highest points - Judith asks if I'm following her down steps with thousand feet drops on either side.
• The gardens at you-know-where. Go to Madeira. Go now. Don't look back.
There's another photo from Madeira on my CARPIX page.
