Levada do Rei
Some travelers visit Madeira Island … they rent a car … drive around for a week and at the end they say ‘we have seen everything of Madeira!’. Yeah sure! And I am Paris Hilton that just escaped and bought a property on Madeira.
Seriously … there is still a lot to discover on this, according to Google Earth, small island. For example today we went for a levada walk. It was a magnificent walk called Levada do Rei, which goes into the Ribeiro Bonito Valley. It is a “walk there and back” walk and took us about three hours.
See a slide show of the pictures I took during the walk. An image says more than a thousand words … in this case you can see more than 25.000 words.
