MADEIRA AFTER THE STORM FEBRUARY 20, 2010

You all, of course, know what happened in Madeira this February 2010.We had a dramatic storm with floods that destroyed parts of our beautiful capital Funchal as well as some other parts of the island. Unfortunately many people lost their homes and some lives were lost too. Though these kind of catastrophes tend to happen now and again all over the world, life still continues and we will always adapt and reconstruct our lifes.

Within a week from that sad Saturday, February 20th, Funchal was practically all clean again with reconstruction works advancing at an incredible pace, thanks to our hard working professionals and the countless volunteers that have been working non-stop.
Life is back to normal; museums, shops, restaurants are open and one can drive safely to different parts of the island following the main roads and respecting the traffic signs.
Madeira continues beautiful and green and our nature strong and impressive. Come and see with your own eyes! More than ever we need you all to visit us now. Continue to holiday and choose Madeira!
