People are always saying the Azores has 4 seasons in 1 day
Is that true?
Sometimes in one hour my friend.. Sometimes in one hour..
What's up Members Of the Barrio
Jon coming to you from Angra Do Heroismo
On the beautiful Island of Terceira
In the Azores
Remember we are covering 6 of the 9 Islands during a 3 week period
We've got a ton of info on our Azores Islands Guide
Linked down below
Today we are actually going to be getting outside of this gorgeous city
And I mean gorgeous city
We did an episode yesterday.. and i'm going to link to it above
If you actually want to see what the city is like at night
But today we have got a private guide
His name is Gui
He is a local
We've already met him
He was in the last video
Briefly
And he has so much enthuiasm for his home island He's going to be taking us around
THe coast
We're going to be seeing some amazing things
And we're going to be showing you that there's more to the Azores than just the main island
Of Sao Miguel
So much more..
What's up man
How are you?
Good good good
So today we'll be doing the coast line tour
Which is a.. we have a big variety of things here
We have awesome landscapes
We are going to swim in our most famous natural pools
At Biscoitos
We are doing a lot of things
You will see
In Jon's video
Stay tuned
I guess you will enjoy
By the way I love the flip flops
I can tell you're serious
Hiking in flip flops
I brought shoes to
So no worries
You said this was the nicest view in the city
Welcome to the main part of the city
Okay
Guys welcome to Angra
A word that was something like Ankra
In English can mean..something like Anchor
In Portugese it means natural safety bay
Like natural harbor
We're going to welcome Adriana into the vlog
And what do you think of this view?
Well.. if you didn't see the hotel
The view is beautiful
It's perfect
I like the way you see the houses they look white
With a roof.. orange
It makes it look.. like magic
Like..a fairy tale town
We have like the earth
With the atlantis.. to symbolize the Portugese
Sailed all around the world
They were big explorers
Up top you have the cross of the order of Christ
Which is a cross even now a days
The Portugal national team
You'll see it on the chest
That cross
Gui has just taken us to a point where someone is actually doing whale watching
You can see whales and dolphins
And then I found something else really interesting
In the distance there..
We can see two seperate islands
Sao Jorge
And Pico
Both of which we're going to be going to
In fact in that order
A little preview of things to come
Sao Jorge
Right there..
People are alway saying the Azores has 4 seasons in one day
Is that true?
Sometimes in one hour my friend
Sometimes in one hour..
You wake up with a very clear.. morning
Clear skies, no clouds
And while the temperature is increasing
The clouds in the middle of the island start forming
As you can see here
If you point behind you..you can see it's clear skies..
Yeah..and if you point in the middle of the islands..
It's cloudy already..
Yep
Some people complain about it
But the best time to go swimming
Is early in the morning
And in the final of the day
Because it's when the sky gets clear again
These roads here are super steep
I am very impressed with Gui's driving ability
This is impressive stuff
It's my first time here sorry
It's your first time..
I can tell
I'm holding on
Concrete rock beaches
As you can see..we take advantage of the place
And we put concrete to just make it flat
Because you can see the rocks sometimes they are sharp
And very irregular
So far we are having a very cool tour
And my favorite thing about the Azores
And I've said this before
Is that no matter.. where you go on any island
You are never far from the Atlantic
That's the cool part
You get those breezes everywhere
I didn't know we needed helmets for this tour?
Surprise
We have a surprise guys.. I'm not sure what it is
We'll see if it's nice or not
We have helmets and flashlights
This must be very dangerous
We're going to be going into a lava tunnel
And I dont think I've ever been inside a lava tunnel before
But.. we didn't know we were going to do this
He said there was a surprise in store
Adriana are you surpriseD?
Yes.. I didn't know
We were going to do this
I'm excited
I hope this light works
Perfect form as usual
Is this your first time in a lava tunnel?
Yeah
Lava tunnels are formed by lava..as the name tells us
2,000 years ago lava just flowed right through there
Into the water
It's not every day you get to go inside of a lava tunnel.. next to the Atlantic Ocean
This is me when I get angry
And this is Jon
Very accurate
Adriana and I have hiking shoes on
Right now
Meanwhile Gui is walking in flip flops and on his cell phone
For him this isn't a hike
For us.. for us this is hiking
We have a real natural rounded pool here
I don't know if you can realize something
Right here
Where the rocks are here
We have the light blue
It's a little bit deeper than maybe 6.. or 9 feet
The deepest part
It would be a real nice private place.. You want to buy it?
How much does it cost?
For you it's for free my friend
I'll buy it
Deal
Every time I think we saw the best view
You just keep topping it
Alright I heard a rumor that we're heading for lunch right now
I thinks after this little hike
In two hours we're having lunch
You will die starving
In two hours i'm going to be like the picture of the bull
We better get lunch soon then
We've made it to our lunch stop for the day
And it kind of looks like a space ship
Compared to the rest of.. the terrain around here
But Gui said the food is very good
Guys look at how much off shore rock fish we have
The best part of the fish
You turn it around
You can cut it
This is the best part of the fish
This meat here
Try it
Are you afraid? Drum roll..
I hope it doesn't have the fish taste.. the fish fish fishy
Mmmmm
It's good?
This is why the head of the fish is the best part of the fish to make soup
Fish soup
I think if you go to any restaurant in the Azores
And they have fresh fish
You should go for it
For sure
And usually we say.. if this head..
If this Maria.. could talk
All the people would know a lot of things
Because this during the night is a nice place for young couples
To have fun
Umm.. i'm not young anymore
What do you think about it?
Ask her
I'm not young anymore.. A lot of secrets here
A lot of secrets here
Hello guys
Welcome to the American part of the Island
It's the Portugese Air Force
And American Air Force
This was base was for.. the second world war
To work like an air craft carrier
An aesthetic one
I wish you all could smell this clean ocean air right now
You can smell that salt
You ever get sick of it?
You ever get sick of the smell of the ocean?
I can't live..far from the ocean
It's impossible
Gui mentioned a few times.. that every island of the Azores
Has its own.. distinct characteristics..
And for me.. so far
For Terceira.. it would be the rocky coasts everywhere
And just these incredible pathes
Out to the ocean
Just about everywhere you turn
What's his name?
Horse..
Cavallo in Portuguese
Approaching the Natural Pools of Biscoitos
This place has the name of Caleta.
Because Kaleta is a type of rock formation
Like these channels that you can see here
I've been dared to jump down here
I mean it's not to crazy
But. It doesn't necessarily look easy.. It's very crazy
He's not crazy enough to do this video.. I don't know how he's a youtube channel
Ohh he's insulting my YouTube abilities
15 minutes later.. okay on 3..
Wait on 3.. 1,2,3
That's it
Did you survive?
I survived
It only took me 15 minutes
But..
Maybe 20
I think it was 20 minutes
But you made it
It doesn't look that scary on the video
But if you're someone like me who's a little bit afraid of heights
And afraid of.. diving
It's not something I enjoy that much
But I had to do it just once
To shut him up..now we're good
I'm afraid.. I'm like Barr..
I hope you have enjoyed
If you want come here to Terceira Island
And have a.. private tour
With a little bit fun
And adventure
So..i guess i'm the right guy
To make it
So.. I guess Barr will leave my.. contacts on the video
So feel free to contact me
Any time you want
And that's it
I hope you have enjoyed this day
We have one more day coming up Okay..
Stay tuned
Alright Members of the Barrio
Gui is the worst tour guide I've ever had
No seriously
We had.. an epic day
If you want a tour guide with a lot of energy
Someone who is really proud of his island
Of his country
Then you should definitley take a tour with Gui
We've still got one more tour with him actually
He's agreed to give us two different tours
Of Terceira
And.. if the second tour is anything.. like today
I think it's going to be
Another really nice video
But seriously.. Terceira has a lot of personality..
It's a bit more laid back than Sao Miguel
And..it's a nice change of pace..from slow to even slower
If you're new to this channel

We are covering 6 of the 9 islands of the Azores

Thank you so much for watching
Until next time..
