The British have a soft spot in their hearts for Madeira. Since colonial times, the redolent wines of this spring-like island have been a favorite on English tables. And since before the Napoleonic Wars, Funchal has been a favorite R & R stop for British vacationers. Madeira's terrain is impossibly steep, interrupted frequently by cascading waterfalls, but every terraced inch is covered in lush greenery and flowers. And everyone who visits Madeira has to take the careening sled ride from Monte to Funchal.
