Does anyone know where I can find a Portuguese map of the Azores (on line) ... (like Google maps but in Portuguese) that lists all of the Fajã <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Faj%C3%A3_do_Sanguinhal&action=edit&redlink=1> s?
I found this in the Portuguese version of Wikipedia: In *Fajã Redonda*, quite abundant in waters there is a river, where once there were two or three water mills, in the place called "The Crows". In addition to this river, there is another one that divides the Fajã Redonda from the Fajã do Sanguinhal. The abundance of water sprang from four relatively strong sources that ran and still run all year. The most frequent Birds in this fajã are: The cagarro, the seagull, the dove, the garajau, and the blackbird. From time to time goose still appears. The products grown in this fajã have always been sufficient to provide for the basic needs of its inhabitants. When there was something missing, they would come to Ribeira Seca or Santo Antão, but they did it as little as possible because the distance was great. So people tried to produce everything a little by taking away their self-sufficiency. In the path that linked the Redonda fajã to the fajã da Caldeira de Santo Cristo, some men were buried in the 1980 earthquake, as a result of the fallen rocks. From that point on, the path, which was carved into the rock, was completely destroyed and impassable.
