Sao Miguel, Azores

Back To - Main Galleries | All Travel Galleries | Short Trips The first settlment in Sao Miguel was in 1444, though of volcanic origin , it's known as "The Green Island".
A garden-like island in the Atlantic ocean, 930 miles from the coast of Portugal. A pace of life in which there is time to stop and appreciate living.
Art treasures that recall pages of centuries-long history...a meeting with the past in everyday life. Nature in its original splendor.
*This gallery is dedicated "to and in memory of" the very special friends we made, who will be as unforgettable as this trip was.
