Jardim Botanico da Madeira

Hooray! Today we have a sunny day in Toronto and it's only looking better from here.

5°C today! 4° Thursday and Friday! 8° Saturday! and 10°on Sunday! I haven't seen two subsequent days of sun since December.

Because Spring feels just around the corner, here's a cool picture of the Madeira Botanical Gardens.

That is a cool picture.

We actually had two sunny days in a row and it was feeling ever so spring-like . . . but I've just been freezing on the sidelines of a netball match and I'm thinking that winter has not been entirely kicked to the curb.

Good news about the weather...not here yet but hopes for the weekend. Is this of the island? Did you see the news about the terrible storms there about a week ago? So sad. I have Portugal on the brain for some reason...

ciao

Bee - nicely put. AND your sounding like a regular Englishwoman with your "ever sos"

Giulia - yes I did see the torrential mudslides and flooding. I forgot to put two and two together. The gardens are on the island in Funchal.

Thank you for combining your thoughts of sun with Madeira. We hope that everyone else does the same ... which in fact ... it is the case. Regards from Madeira

Thanks for visiting, Don Amaro. I hope this clean up goes well for you and the other islanders.
