[AZORES-Genealogy] Advice on Azores Itinerary please
Hello all, A cousin is planning a 10-day trip to the Azores with his wife and has asked me for feedback on his itinerary. He can make changes through tomorrow so any comments on what they should see or do while there would be greatly appreciated! Also, while the itinerary mentions "visiting family" he dosn't actually know any family there. His ancestors are from Norte Pequeno & Rosais, São Jorge and Povoação & Vila Franca do Campo, São Miguel.

My great-great grandparents from Agua Retorta were Emilia Rosa de Medeiros (b. 1846) and her husband Manuel Bernardo Teixeira (b. 1831) also from Agua Retorta. Emilia Rosa was the daughter of Manuel Furtado from Nordestinho and Felicianna de Medeiros Sardinha from Agua Retorta. Manuel was the son of Manuel Furtado and Rosa de Medeiros. Felicianna was the daughter of Manuel Furtado Sardinha and Maria de Medeiros Barbosa.
