Onto Lisboa
20. Mai 2023 in Portugal ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
A weird sort of day, filling in time before flight to Lisbon. The wonderful Filipe drove Ro and Rod to the airport and dropped me off at Machico to fill in time before an evening flight. Local car enthusiast were competing in a hill climb in their hotted up cars. Surfing with no surf was a bit sad. Loved a children’s book reading, the kids were so engaged and I cafe sat and finished Scrublands. At the airport.. people take thur pups in board🐾🐾🐾❤️❤️🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
And the plane take-offs over the highway are must watch. Until a few years ago only military trained pilots were allowed to fly into/ out of Funchal airportWeiterlesen

👋 ✈️
1. Oktober 2023 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Yesterday was our last day on this Island. 🏝️ We drove to the west side and had a coffee ☕️ 🤓 and some more views. The rest of the day was spent at the pool again 🏊‍♂️ and ended with a delicious fish dinner.
The night was cut short since our flight is at 4:20 in the morning and the drive to the airport is about 1 hour. 🫠

All in all, Madeira is a very beautiful island. Perfect for hiking and cars with more than 53PS (we drove a lot in 2nd gear)
We would say it is the “island of tunnels” rather than “island of flowers”… 😅 on our way to the airport we counted 41 tunnels 🙈

Final mosquito 🦟 bite score:
- Kathi: stopped counting. ~ 40
- Torsten: 5Weiterlesen

MADEIRA, PORTUGAL, Day 3
26. April in Portugal ⋅ 🌙 63 °F
One last hike to cap off our Camino, and what a hike it was! The most popular hike here to Pico do Arieiro and Pico Ruivo, so navigating folks was as challenging as the steep climbs, pitch black tunnels, rocky terrain, and changing weather, but oh-so-beautifulWeiterlesen

Erfolgreich auf Madeira gelandet
31. Juli 2022 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Nach einem entspannten Flug steuern wir den Flughafen direkt am Meer an, ein Abenteuer direkt zwischen Häusern und am Meer. Ein Upgrade beim Mietauto sieht Andi auch gerne und die freche Dame bei Sixt macht ihm ordentlich Feuer!
Unser Gastgeber Nuno empfängt uns mit einer Unmenge an Tipps in einem liebevoll und heimelig eingerichteten Apartment und so können wir direkt nach der Ankunft gleich noch ins Meer hüpfen.Weiterlesen
Reisender Gratuliere! Incl Gepäck ? 🤣

Ankunft auf der Insel 🛬
2. März in Portugal ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
Bereits der Landeanflug auf Madeira ist ein Erlebnis wert. Die Piste ist kurz und direkt an der Küste gelegen: Piloten benötigen eine extra Ausbildung, um dieses Reiseziel anfliegen zu dürfen. Für uns war die Landung bereits das erste spannende Reiseerlebnis!Weiterlesen
Reisender Öhhh krass 😂

Madeira
20. Januar in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
My plans for Madeira had been somewhat squandered by the fact that my Australian driver's license had expired about a month ago. A lot of the rental car companies I contacted said that I would not be able to rent a car without a physical, up-to-date license. This was very sad, but I wasn't going to let it stop me. I woke up early, got the bus to the airport, got on my flight to Lisbon, waited around for a couple of hours, and then boarded to Madeira. The flight leaving Geneva provided one of the most beautiful scenes I had ever seen. I was glued to the window as we flew away from Lake Leman, over the alps, and toward the Mediterranean. Eventually, though, I did arrive in Madeira, and I had to taxi to my accommodation in Porto da Cruz. It is a small, coastal town, but it is supposed to be very beautiful and a great hostel. After some time, I arrived, dropped off my things, and went to the main area where I met a German and a Dutch girl. They also did not have a car but were mostly staying around the hostel, doing surfing lessons and local walks. So I was once again on my own to try and find a car.Weiterlesen

"Botanic Hotel", Take 2
12. Februar 2022 in Portugal ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We just couldn't resist - so this morning on our way to the airport we took a detour passing through Funchal to the Botanic Garden Hotel where it all started five years ago.

While crouded Funchal could not thrill us today we definitly liked the walk around the hotel premises and the Botanic Garden. We missed the gigantic gooseneck algave next to our former apartment but other than that the garden is just a great place to get in touch with the Madeiran Flora.

Car return went much faster and easier than expected and now we are sitting in one of the airport cafés waiting, watching and balspheming....

While the bording starts rather normal the ground crew seems rather stressed. As we follow the information board we discover that there seems to be a problem with another flight also going to Germany.
The boarding area is crowding up and the ground personnel are having a hard time because there is a hole bunch of idiots trying to break the rules these times demand of international travelers. No vaccination passes, no orderly papers, faulty filled forms and being confronted with the constantly aggressive tone - what a waste of life time with pointless behavior and reckless people.

After the boarding is finally completed the flight starts late, the pilot again asking people to comply to the rules...and they take us back to Berlin.

Out of the plane, into the train, hurrying to catch the connecting train and suddenly, just after midnight...we're back home.
Heating is turned on, the prognosed "severe cold" turned into warm air and it is good to be back, once more.Weiterlesen
