Our first day of exploring took us to the island of Pico. A group of us enjoyed a beautiful hike through the vineyards, embracing the light rain that makes these islands so green and lush, and finished with a taste of local wine. Others headed to Lajes, the historic center of whaling and home of the best whaling museum in the Azores.
