Funchal is a wonderful port, Madeira a beautiful island! I wish we had more time there. The taxi drivers seem to have it divided up into "zones" for what you can do in a few hours or a whole day. Sue, since you will have more time there, the more you can do! Fit in all you can, because after that, it is like JoAnn said, PARTEE TIME if you are going to follow the TAP tradition of the crossing~
