You can hear the diesels as she "purrs"out of the harbour !!

No, I have just visited a number of times. The cable car will take you up to Monte. €20 There you can ride part way down the hill in a wicker basket. €20 Or an open top bus tour around teh city of Funchal, I think it is €16. Balloon ride whish only lasts 10 mins, but gives you a superb view of the harbour.€15 All prices approx

Hmmm! Looks like Madeira has added some cams!!! :D This one at the Beer House will come in handy for a stalk during Keith's next visit!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: http://www.madeira-web.com/camera/cam-12.html

Much larger pictures, too :lol: :lol:

Funny but last Sunday the site looked the same but when I posted the picture of Albatros in port the picture came out large! I had no idea why :? at the time but I guess they were in the process of changing over! :D Madeira has the best cams!!! :D

Let's hope they keep them up. :D. I did notice there isn't a panarama cam, but pictures seem to include more area. Did anyone notice that they said there is new port in Caniçal? Take a look at this map to see distance from Funchal (1) to Caniçal (26) http://www.madeira-web.com/PagesUK/tourmap.html Manuela, about how far is it in km?

Trouble is we usually sit arourn the blind side

Carolyn Jane- 07-28-2007

Well then, we will have to ask them to move the cam...CJ

The panorama cam is still available on the daily-picture page. Caniçal is a cargo port. I don't have the distance, but I would expect it to take about one hour to drive there. You can tour the entire island in one day, with stops for lunch and ponchinha :wink:

Thanks Manuela. I have so many "favorite" places on the island, that there are still places I haven't seen, but I will. :-) Every trip I hit my favs and then add a few more.

Needs a little fine tuning.

Trouble is we usually sit arourn the blind side So, Keith, next time you will have to sit in camera view and wave to us! :lol: :lol: :lol:

aurora- 07-29-2007

It tends to be a little more noisy on that side but anything to oblige :lol:

tigersxm- 07-29-2007

Thank you, Keith! We will be watching for you! :lol: :lol: :lol:
