We had breakfast out on the terrace, can’t understand why people want to eat in the restaurant when we still get waiter service. How can people drink prosecco every morning for breakfast?!
People had complained about the pigeons flying around so the hotels answer was to get the hawk man in!

He just let the hawk fly around and the pigeons stayed away.
We forgot to bring adaptors with us, all 2 pin in the hotel so we walked to the Forum. We were in for a surprise. That is one thing about Madeira there is always so much going on everywhere.
Then everyone was looking up and we didn’t expect to see Father Christmas! What a lovely surprise.
After all that entertainment back to the hotel and the afternoon was by the pool.
In the evening the folk dancers put on a really good show which ended with everyone joining in conga style.
I had to laugh that someone had written “Madeira is the destination for newlyweds and nearly deads!!” Well we have been married 24 years so must fit in the other group!
