Answers:
A lot has been said about the New Year’s Eve on Madeira .. and still they continue to talk about it. I will summarize it for you in one word: spectacular!!
How it goes? On Madeira the New Year’s Eve you take wine and food instead …. invite your family and friends, finding a nice spot with a view over the city of Funchal … and then wait on the stroke of midnight, .. when the o so peaceful stars in the sky will disappear for about 10-15 minutes ..
During those minutes it seems that all the light and colors from Funchal's ‘evening dress’ have decided to rocket up into the sky, . duplicate themselves by a thousand times more and bursts into a myriad of colors above the harbor.
In the meantime you hear the peal of bells from the churches, the sirens of cruise ships and cargo vessels, culminating in the spectacular firework display. People cheering, hugging each other, toasting on the arrival of the New Year and wishing all the good things in life to one and another.
This is in a nutshell my experience ..
By the way I also have some videos online that you can see it yourself .. at YouTube and Google Video. Just search on 'donamaro' or 'madeira'
