YouTube Video Description

Join us as we venture out from Ponta Delgada, Azores with a rental car to explore the island with a number of stops along the way. We head up to the Lagoa do Fogo (Fire Lake), visit the Gorreana Tea Factory, head to the Fumarolas da Lagoa, and also explore Vila Franca do Campo. At our last stop, we happen upon a wonderful restaurant, Mercado da Vila for a quick lunch before we head back to the Odyssey of the Seas and our transatlantic cruise.
