Holidays in Madeira – The Flower Island

I booked a week. Not knowing that the island doesn’t really have sand beaches and that it’s pretty cold. I had never been to an island in the Atlantic Ocean before and I somehow expected the climate to be similar to the Mediterranean one.

When I arrived it was 20 degrees and windy. For many, this may be enough – for me it isn’t. I was very disappointed and thought I would spend my vacation in my hotel room with the heating turned on. At least, I had a great view.

The Island of Flowers Madeira is a Dream Island!

This is the cable car in Funchal that is bringing you up to the Botanical Garden.

And this is the Botanical Garden in Funchal – a beautiful and colorful place.

We stopped in this picturesque village called Câmara de Lobos on our way to the north. Winston Churchill, a bif fan of Madeira, painted the village because I was so inspired.
