Flower Festival 2007
You could not be present on this year’s 52nd edition of the breathtaking Festa da Flor da Madeira (Flower Show) in Funchal?
Well, here is a small consolation … YouTube member ‘correcaminhos’ (which means ‘roadrunner’) was the first to publish a (7 minutes) video of the flower parade on the web.
The theme chosen for this year was “From the Madeira Islands – A Flower for Peaceâ€, and it involved 1200 participants and the following 8 groups:
- João EgÃdio
- Chico & Companhia
- Veteranos da Folia
- Fábrica de Sonhos
- Escola de Samba Caneca Furada
- Associação de Animação Geringonça
- Turma do Funil
- Isabel Borges
Enjoy the after-flower display …

I have been planning to attend this year’s Flower Festival, but for some reason I was not able to witness it… Oh well, probably next year will be a better time for that.
There are more events coming up this year on Madeira Island. Check Madeira Events 2007. There is also a list for 2008 available.
Parabéns pelo blog. É só para dizer que o Youtube tem um video do Carnaval 2007, basta pesquisar por correcaminhos.
