I am cruising to Funchal in September and would like some first hand information and personal impressions about the city. I appreciate any information you could furnish. What is the legal currency in the city?
Thank you much

I would advice you to search for 'weblog' and 'madeira' as there are a few blogs that offer (good) impressions about the Portuguese island Madeira and the city of Funchal.
Also there are a lot (and I mean lot) of pictures online made by visitors of Madeira. I keep as good as possible track of these albums on my http://del.icio.us/madeira
There is also a page of Madeira where you can start your quest on information: http://madeira.eigenstart.nl
The board of Tourism of Madeira offers also good information on events and things to do during your visit: http://www.madeiratourism.com
And about the currency: Euro
