Coughing guide who could not get the walk over fast enough - Referto Castelejo, 1/2 day Walk. The lady told us from 9-12:45. The car showed up, we sat in right behind the driver and guide, something I really regret. We sat there for two full hours, till we got out and the guide was coughing all the time! Should not have been working!! We were back at the hotel around 15:15 as the last of guests at Pestana Royal, after being again out at Ponta Sao Lourenco ++ to let off a couple staying there. So much for a half day trip! As I feared but expected, I am now ill for the 2 day, coughing and with a fever. Really, do not let your employees work when that should be in bed!!! Also the guide kept hurrying us on when we wanted to take som pictures. With the narrow path and meeting other groups, not much of an experience!
