Hello, SS Peninsular, sailed from Sao Miguel, May 24th, 1899, then stopped at Faial Island, May 25th (they spelled it Fayal), next stop was Terceira, May 26th, then Flores May 29th, and finally on to New York, June 6th....that must've been a nice trip, even better if you had boarded in Sao Miguel. I'm not sure how well traveled your everyday Azorean citizen was (during this time period), but my guess is that for many, this must have been the first time they went to the other islands, especially Flores. Maybe an Azorean historian can enlighten us on this topic....also, can someone explain why the ship went to Faial then to Terceira, and not the other way around? I'm sure they had their reasons, but, just from looking at a map, it would seem counterintuitive to go from Fail, then back to Terceira, then to Flores.
