Picnic at Lagoa das Sete Cidades – Soa Miguel, The Azores

Fotor0121173123

The Picnic I dreamed about ! and then it was the Picnic I had and enjoyed ! I never thought that I would have the chance one day to have a picnic onย a volcanicย island in the middle of Atlantic ocean somewhere far far away form my home Kuwait ๐Ÿ˜€ Planning for that picnic started before our arrival at the island, while Iwas arranging for our tours with our tour guide by email, I asked him that if it was possible to find a nice place next to one of the lakes of Sao Miguel to have a short break picnic during the day tour there.ย Gary responded thatย I will have my picnic by aย beautiful lake ๐Ÿ™‚ and since that time I’ve been dreaming about that Picnic until the day has come…
