Sea day and Madeira

Sea days are purgatory 🙂
Early arrival to a beautiful glow from Funchal.
Ready for a hop-on-hop-off bus trip around Madeira.
But only after coffee in the morning sunshine on our balcony!

We found Madeira an odd place; everything is clinging to a hill, and they’re not shy about leaning further and further out. It’s a Sunday in January so the town was fairly deserted but sadly we didn’t find anything that we thought was worth hopping off the bus for.

The good thing about cruising is that the world comes to you and you can decide whether you’d like to prioritise a return visit.

A bad photo of the bay area. There’s no real beaches in Madeira, everything is almost vertical clinging to a rock.
These houses are hung so far out!
