The island of Madeira is really magical. I reminds me of living in Hawaii (except it’s the weather is a little more chilly). I love the variety of art all around the city.

Madeira Food on Foot.

This was an amazing food tour. So much variety in the food and the information. We stop at a cafe, a bakery, a chocolatier, a restaurant, & a bar…and that was just the food & drinks portion. We saw some local art, got some local history… it was well worth it.

Why is it always uphill? My knees are over this.

I can’t imagine what you’d muddle in a pestle this large. It came half way up my calf.

Funny how relative time is. I could have stayed several more weeks on Madeira but one week in Lisbon seemed to drag on forever. I have 2 more days to go and can’t wait for them to be over.
