Good day of doing nothing at all.

Flew back. I don't recommend the Azores out of season!

Gave in to the weather. Drove to Sete Cidades but saw nothing at all, just fog and rain. Spent the whole day working on our paper instead.

Headed to our final stop, a gorgeous Air Bnb just outside Porta Delgada. Started driving towards Sete Cidades, the most spectacular caldeira, but the fog was super thick and we turned round.

Long walk today getting very wet around Lago do Furnas. It was a good walk though, around some fumaroles, and to a Conservation Centre. Then a couple of hours as it got dark in the thermal pool - the best experience of the trip! Great to be sitting in the warm pool as the sun went down and the rain fell!

C • We did something like that ... 1

Went for a a MIC/HIIT combo on arriving at Furnas. Furnas is a town in the bottom of a volcano caldeira, and we treated ourselves to the nice hotel there that had it's own thermal pool. The hotel has a gorgeous botanical garden which was the highlight of the trip.

Was going to just do MIC, but then felt good and did the HIIT too - some super steep sections up the craziest vehicle roads I've ever seen.

Did a banded strength session after a morning of soggy walking in nearby Nordeste.
