Homeward Bound

 We woke you up a beautiful sunny day. 21 degrees at 9am. Sad to be heading home. 

Evening Swim Before Dinner

It was such a warm evening, Mya wanted to make the most of the pools. 


A lovely meal to complete our holiday. 

Last Day in Madeira

 Had some time relaxing around the indoor pool this morning before grabbing a pizza lunch lover looking the sea. 

Then off to the Marina of Funchal for an afternoon on the Magic Dolphin Eco Catamaran. 

We ended up seeing lots of pilot whales and dolphins, so wonderful in their own habitat. We ended up motoring along the coast, viewing the steepest cliff in Europe and cable car lifting people into the sky. We go back into the Marina to see 2 giant cruise ships, a daily occurrence at this time of year.

Monte Tobogganing

 So much fun. 2kms wizzing down hill in a wicker cart controlled by 2 men. 

Breakfast time

 Delicious spread! My favourite meal of the day. 


Then a relaxing morning by the pool (inside and outside) overlooking the sea.

Cable Car to Monte Palace Gardens

It was so good getting an early flight, it gave us chance to take a trip into Funchal Town and catch the cable car to the Palace gardens, up into the mountain and misty rain. The gardens were beautiful built into the hillside.
