18th July (Friday)
I love walking while I see the sea...
The Promenade is my favorite walking area
Shopping is one of my other great passions and my fav shopping centre was Forum Madeira

Jardim de São Martinho (São Martinho Garden).
The archipelago has an impressive variety of gardens and parks
This green space was inaugurated in September 2009 and has an area of 4.740 m2.
The main goal was to increase the council’s green area, going at the same time through the requalification of a degraded area that had to due to its misuse in the past
Apart from its slopes and according to Amparo Urbanization Plan, this area aims to be something else: a green area of major proportions yet to explore
This garden was structured by different thematic areas, characterized by its peculiar types of vegetation. Up till now, around 145 trees of 60 species have been planted
The exuberance of green spaces is one of the greatest features of Madeira
I'm in love with this island
A relaxing tranquil environment with excellent views
Marítimo's cap :-) I bought this cap and a flag of this team... My favourite Madeiran club
Postcard landscapes
Quietness and relax
