Tour of East San Miguel - Azores

Today, we took a guided tour of the East end of San Miguel Island. We visited Furnas which is a village entirely built in the crater of a volcano - still fairly active. This is where they put together a delicious stew of meat, sausage, and vegetables in a pot and bury it in the ground for 6 hours and let nature, and the active Sulphur hot springs do the cooking. Delicious! We took in the beautiful mountainous areas and stopped of at the highest point for a photo op of Lake Furnas - one of San Miguel's volcanic lakes. There were so many gorgeous sights it was hard to capture even a fraction of them. No wonder they call the Azores the Hawaii of Europe. Czytaj więcej
