We drove to the West side of the island where there are lakes in "calderas" or volcanic craters.
We had a picnic at one of them. Here are us, Merritt and John and Shirlee from San Francisco, owners of Solstice, another Sceptre 41.
Enjoying the picnic.
Terracing on the hillsides. It must have taken generations to have piled up all the rocks that they use to separate fields, control erosion, and create level grazing. Most of the land is used for grazing. The cultivation is closer to the cities and there isn't all that much of it. The vegetables here in the stores are not too impressive.
Here is a rock formation that must have had volcanic origins. This part of the island is the most Western point of Europe.
