房奴生活30年

繼前一天跑完一天西部行程感到非常充實，

Strawbeyrry  World 旅行社本身沒有什麼購物點完全純粹是一整天跑景點，看山看海，看大自然傑作，並且提供舒適交通工具和完整講解；西部行程比較起這天的東部真的太值得了。

東部行程是另外一家旅行社用的是9人座箱型車：很簡陋坐到屁股痛而且空間狹窄，超級不舒服，

第二站就載我們去一家購物中心。沒有人買只有繞行一圈〈7人就出來了〉

我們在外面還有好多時間可以逛逛
 

來到這一站〈地名待查〉很特別，有個階梯可以爬上去，其實不高但雲彩好像就在身邊

景點旁邊有個皮膚釉黑的中年男人〈像山地同胞〉擺上CD攤子還自己吹笛聲吸引我靠近看看。

它播放的曲子蠻好聽的忍不住掏錢買了一片拿在手上拍一張紀念照10€當然不便宜，可是里斯本的憂傷小調Fado發財車一片要價17€害我都下不了手，





我們午餐的餐廳是左邊這家泥土色小屋，三對夫妻〈一對來自奧地利一對來自德國另一對都沒交談〉

很自然的走進去原來他們都付40€含午餐，只有我繳25€不包午餐，不敢進入的我只好在附近吃自己帶的野餐，這回有點後悔對自己太刻薄，何必省那15€的，即使明知這裡是專門做觀光客生意的小地方也應該體驗一下什麼是當地美食呀！

後來同車的奧地利夫妻說還不錯吃，雖然我覺得並不便宜。

 

吃野餐時實在很無聊因為這裡是前不著山後不著店的小地方竟然要放我們停留1個多小時。


 

 
最後一站。這天的行程相較前一天西部行程，還是西部有著較多的驚喜。

Leaving the Lido where our tour begins, the first stop is Camacha, a beautiful small village a few kilometres out of Funchal.

It's best known as the centre of Madeira's willow craft industry and for it's traditional folklore dance groups.
Our drive continues towards the mountain Pico do Arieiro. At an altitude of 1818 metres it is the third highest peak on the island and affords breathtaking views.

On the northern slopes of the island the tour reaches a popular starting point for 'levada' walks, Ribeiro Frio. With its interesting trout pools, this area still has much of its original vegetation. The island was once completely covered by 'Laurissilva' forest, a relic from prehistoric times.
Time for lunch in Santana that is characterised by its small thatched triangular houses.
Next stop not to be missed is the place known as Penha d'Águia in Porto da Cruz, here the views are absolutely amazing with an imposing rock that separates Porto da Cruz from Faial.

Past Portela we will go towards Ponta de São Lourenço, situated in the eastern part of the island, this is the place where a fantastic combination of rocks, sea and nature combine.
The last town to be visited is Santa Cruz where Madeira's new Intercontinental Airport is situated, boasting a runway of 2781 m length which has given the island a new image for the new millennium.
