You're not alone in the island with this book in your pocket. Every moment you've got by your side the expert and accurate guide. The book is pointing out the way and you have to explore the path and the incredible azorean scenery with wide and heartsome eyes. The book is your compass and you're the stunned person who discovers the islands beauties walking along flowered tracks. Many thanks, Andreas
