And finally

Almost done now but to prove that I did do something at times, I'll leave you with a few pictures of me in 'action'.

After our arrival in Horta we spent two days there after which Eric and I took the ferry to Pico Island and from there we flew to Saõ Miguel. Both islands were beautiful. Pico namely because the stark contrast between the bright green colour of the vines (they make their own wine) and the black of the lava stone. Pico is also known for its cheese. We think it is a yummy cheese indeed.

Saõ Miguel is a much larger vulcanic island. It is very green (sometimes just like Devon) and seems to have a mixture of everything, from jungle to hot springs and from rugged, vulcanic rock formations to lush, green meadows.

we decided to rent a car for one day and visited Sete Cidades (the blue and green lake) and some hot, smelly springs. It is a beautiful Island, as you can see.
