U-Peirira sisiqithi kuLwandlekazi lweAtlantiki, esasinethamsanqa lokutyelela obu busika kwisikhephe. Ngethamsanqa, indawo yokupaka iqashiso kwesi siqithi yayiyintsuku ezinesiqingatha, kwaye sakwazi ukuba sazi le ndawo imangalisayo kancinane.
Olu lusuku lokuqala sahamba ngemoto, esathi sabhukishwa kwangaphambili. Kanye ngaphandle kwezibuko, sahamba kwizitrato ezixineneyo zomoya kunye neMonte. Ngelishwa, imozulu ngalo mhla yayicekiseka, kwakunetha kwaye yayiyinkungu. Nangona kunjalo, sahlala sivuya kakhulu ngohambo lwethu oluncinci.
Ke, bemkile ukuliba, saya emantla esiqixhe. Indlela yethu idlule kwiipaki zendalo, mhlawumbi intle kakhulu, kodwa ayibonakali kwinkungu. Inkungu ichithe ngandlel 'ithile xa sihamba saya elwandle. Ngaselunxwemeni oludlula kwinyoka emxinwa, kwezinye iindawo kukho iindawo zokuma. Izimvo ezivela kule miradors zazimangalisa.
Ndiqhube kwisixeko saseSan Vincent, saphinda saqengqela ezintabeni, kodwa indlela yaya isantya, kodwa ingabi mnandi. Kuzo zonke iintaba kuyo yonke intaba, iingxangxasi zamanzi zazivuya, kwaye umbala wamanzi wawukile kwenye indawo.
Emva koko sasikwisixeko saseRicera Brava, apho umbono wezilali ezijikelezileyo zasasazwa ecaleni kwethambeka eliluhlaza lweenduli.
Ngelishwa, sele iqala ukuthandwa, kwaye sibuyele kwinqanawa.
Uninzi lwazo zonke ngalo mhla sisothukayo ukuba esi siqithi siye sahlala siluhlaza. Naphi na apho siyekile khona, ivumba lemibala eyahlukeneyo kunye namayeza kuyo yonke indawo.
Ekuseni yemini elandelayo saya kuhlolo lwe-funchal. Into yokuqala esiyenzileyo siyenyuka kwi-ficurmar kwiSixeko saseMonte. Kuthatha ixesha elininzi, kuba i-fuchal kunye neMonte zikwithambeka yenduli ephezulu. Ecaleni kwekhabhathi yecalble yigadi eyoyikisayo ye-botanical, apho kukho nje imvula ediyayo, sachitha iiyure ezi-3.
Kwaye emva koko senze oko kubantwana bethu bephuphayo-sehlela ngamaplanga, ababetyhalela amadoda amabini, ezantsi kwizitrato ezincinci, phantse ukuya kwi-Funchal.
Kuzo zonke ukuzisola kwam, sasingenalo ixesha laneleyo, kodwa into esiyibonileyo yayikwane nokuphinda.
