How to describe this island. Describe shortly and simply?
I have the word 'TUNNEL' in my mind.
The tunnels of nature.
The pathways under the tunnels of trees and bush.
The tunnels of flowers on the mountain slopes.
Tunnels in the vineyards and banana plantations.
Tunnels of levada streams - between rocks, plants and lizards habitat.
Not enough...
Tunnels of mountains - valleys, canyons, rivers' bottoms.
Tunnels in the caves (Sao Vicente) and between the islets anchored picturesquely.
Finally tunnels done by people. Narrow streets of small towns, breathtaking car tunnels on the ancient roads and modern tunnels of highway. Many, many road tunnels...
And besides it many, many SUNdays. Do I need more to return there? For sure. No :)
