Leaving Philipsburg on a water taxi.

The size of these ships is enormous

Funchal (Maderia) is famous for its flowers

also it is a very hilly island

so we travelled by cable car

Even the captain entered into the fun and games

All good things must come to an end.

Bye bye  ship!!

In mid April Anne and I flew to London Gatwick to connect to a flight to Orlando in Florida. We spent 7 nights there visiting the theme parks and all the resorts tourist attractions. Onwards to Port Canaveral to board the "Norweigan Spirit" cruise ship for the next two weeks visiting the American Virgin Islands before crossing the Atlantic Ocean to Maderia and then onto Barcelona for a two night stay.It was a most enjoyable holiday helped by fully inclusive drinks package which had to be seen to be believed. EXCELLENT HOLIDAY.
