The tea shop at the end of the world

The tea shop was at Ponte da Pargo. Between 1420 when Madeira was discovered by the Portuguese and 1492 when Columbus made it across the Atlantic this western most point of the Island was in practical terms the edge of the world. (I know there are other claims, bear with me).
Today it was our destination. The fresh herbal tea was terrific and we liked the cow.
The alternative theme for the blip was going to be A Long Way Down. We've driven vertigo inducing roads and stared off a lot of very high places including Cabo Giraou. 600 meters straight down!
A beautiful day but quite tiring.
