Madeira: rain

I think some of you cursed me after I mentioned going to the beach on our first day of holidays because it then rained for 8 straight days. A lot more than we are used to at this time in Madeira.The rain and fog made us behave a bit stangely.

For those unfamiliar with rain on a island let me just say that even your waterproof backpack has a limit. As such our little tourist stores are prepared with raincoats or ponchos.

Maggie and her younger sister come out of the fog to join us for lunch. They said they were not tired, just old...
