Wednesday we decided to take a little road trip and took a tour around the island. It is MUCH bigger than we thought. We had planned to go around the entire island but half way through, we decided it would take about 6 hours to get home. So we cut through the middle of the island. The drive was amazing! We went from a big city to the country side. Four lane highways to tunnels that have been hand chiseled with room for only one car. One tiny European car! This island is gorgeous with so much diversity. In one day, we felt like we had been to Ireland, Oregon, San Diego, Hawaii and South America! Madeira really is such a unique island with so many different things to offer. We are so happy we were able to see all this while Noni is here!
This is the tunnel I had mentioned. It was TINY! The picture is bad but it was the only one that turned out. We were really lucky because there weren't any cars coming in the other direction!
You probably can't tell but those are little huts that you can stay in. It's like a hotel, they looked really cute!
We got lucky, someone was very tired and slept for the entire drive!
Hydrangeas just grow out here. They are SO beautiful and there are so many all over. Just growing like weeds!
The views were amazing.
These little huts were in the town of Santana. They were so cute!
