May 10 Funchal, again

We're back to Funchal again on this trip. We visited a different area of the city this time since we were docked closer and had no shuttle bus. On this side street I'm impressed by the tile work on the street.

There was a flower and garden show underway

As part of the city festival there were parades down the Avenida do Mar e das Communidades Madeirenses. About the time the ship was departing there was a parade of cars. We saw some of them lining up. Only one Ferrari but also a bug-eyed Sprite!
