Madeira, Portugal

After 6 sea days in a row, we arrived at our first port of Madeira, Portugal. We love those sea days!

Some beautiful city shots as we were sailing away



Portuguese folk dancers entertaining the people lining up to get back on the Magic. We barely beat the rush!

The contest tent had all the winners of the different specimens of flowers... any kind you can think of.

Beautiful flower and bulb shops everywhere

The flower festival was pretty crowded, but it was still fun to see the locals out at their festival
