A quiet morning and afternoon in Funchal, on the second day of our visit to the Madeiran island capital. We did our exploring yesterday and chose to have a relaxing day mostly spent on board the ship. I took the opportunity to have a stroll around Funchal at lunchtime, mainly because we needed to find an ATM to top up on Euros for spending money during the day. It will be a busy day again tomorrow when we reach the first of the Canary Islands, Tenerife. We are planning on visiting Mount Teide, the highest mountain on the island and indeed the whole of Spain, which stands at over 12,000 feet.
Departure was at 1600, and after a short test of one of the lifeboats, the ship was turned to the south and we headed in the direction of Tenerife.
