My mother who was born in Pico has climbed Pico from her house in the village of Santa Luzia before they had Casa Da montanha - with her brothers and a pot of milk on her head. Great video.

@christinenobles 5 месяцев назад

Awww that is a great effort !!! 😱😱🤩🤩 Was she delivering milk to someone? Or was it just for them? Very impressive 😸💯 My backpack 🎒 almost weighted me off the wall at the end... I was already very tired... But damn it was worth it 💯🤗🎉✨ Proud 🥲🦚. Thank you for watching ☺️❤️

Love your videos! We are visiting the Azores in a month and SO excited 😃 Can I ask how long the hike took you? And did you book a time to start, or could just show up? We are staying in Horta and ferrying to Pico for our hike day. We are just a bit nervous about duration as there are limited ferries between Horta and Madalena 😅

@christinenobles Месяц назад

Hello, thank you for watching ☺️🙏 You need to book your hike in advance. Make sure you have all the equipment and hiking shoes. The trip up is on average 4 hours and 4 hours back. There is also an option to climb up and sleep over and watch the sunset from the summit. We left at about 10 am for the day climb but if you choose to stay over night, you are starting in the afternoon ☺️🙏 Hope you enjoy your adventure and have the best experience 😊🙏❤️ I truly love the mountain and often thinking back how wonderful that was 🥹🎉💯⛰️

@christinenobles 5 месяцев назад

Awww amazing !!! 😍😍😍 It also stands for me as one of the life greatest achievements 😂😂❤️❤️ I have had really bad knees my whole life and I used to struggle to run for more than a minute or walk long distances. My stubbornness brought me into fitness and facing this issue 🥹🥹 I was so proud to be on the top of the world 🌎🫠💓🌴🎉🥲

What an amazing video! We are planning to climb the mountain next month. Just Curious which drone did you use in the video? I'm thinking of buying a drone especially for this trip.

Awww amazing !!! Pico is so much fun !!! Are you only climbing or sleeping up there? 😊😊 I had my Drione DJI 3 mini Pro 🥹🙏❣️🎉 Hope you enjoy your climb 🥹🙏 Send us a picture from the top 🔝☺️📸

Thank you for this incredible video, it is very honest, so I can imagine good and bad sides of climbing to Pico mountain. It is not so easy, specially the way down. But you look so encouraging. 😊

Awww thank you 🥹❤️ I am not an athlete 🤣🤣🤣 I saw Pico from hotra and told my man that I want to climb it! His reaction was that I am crazy 🤣🤣🤣 I said... Little hill... We must !!! And he booked it poor thing 🥹❤️🎉🫣😂 It was one of the best things I have ever done ✅ And so glad we done this together ❤️😊 Warm heart reccomendation ☺️💖

Hey Christine, I watched all your Azores Videos. They're great😍 We are going to visit the azores in June for our honeymoon and are looking forward to climb Mt. Pico ❤ for that we have one question😅 what we ask ourselves all the time... is there any possibility to go to the toilet on the way to the top? 😂😂 I can't find any information about that 😅 Thank you for sharing your experience! 😊

@christinenobles 6 месяцев назад

Hello lovely, 🤩🌹 thank you for watching the series ☺️❤️ Made with love for you 💞😁. This is a great question ⁉️. The only toilet is at the building at the start. I don't remember us going to the toilet at all over the whole climb. We didn't drink much water and what we did we sweat out 💦. I Reccommend having a good 💩 in the morning 🌄 and then empty tank before the climb. If it's urgent, you can always jump behind rock somewhere 🥹🥹. It's recconend to bring 1.5l per person of water but we only brought that for both of us and it was enough ☺️❤️. Hope it was helpful ☺️☺️. Enjoy the climb 🪜☺️🙏❤️‍🔥✨ Congratulations for your honeymoon 🥹❤️✨🎉

Awesome video! My sons and I are planning on doing the climb in August. They will be fine as they are in their 20s. Its me I'm concerned about at the age of 64. How did you prepare for the climb? I live in flat land IL, USA. No mountains here to climb.lol Thanks in advance for any preparation tips!😎

@christinenobles 3 месяца назад

Hello beautiful 😍❤️ We done absolutely no preparation. We didn't even have the right equipment or amount of water with us 😭😂 It was a completely spontaneous decision !!! After staying in Horta staring at Pico from our hotel room, I have decided that it was ment to be and that we are climbing up !!! 😭😂😂 Mike said that I was crazy but for me it was a destiny !!! I have seen there a lot of older couples !!! One man I adored was around 70 climbing to stay overnight camping !! It all depends on your fitness level and healthy knees. For some 20yo this might be harder than for you !!! 😂😂😂 We been through something in life and we are mentally strong 💕🙏 That was the main contribution to my success haha 😂😂😂 I live in Darwin Australia. It's as flat as it gets so I am right there with you. However I am a fitness competitor 😁😁 And I walk, sprint and lift heavy weights almost daily. Maybe long walks in the nature and gym stairs exercise will help you to level up before the climg !!! I believe in you !!! 💖💯 You can do this !!! 😍😍😍🎊🌹🌞

Very nice video Christine! Just attention that many times people cannot climb when they arrive with sneakers at the registration, as it is forbidden without mountain boots ;) also is safer

@@christinenobles yes definitely a small world. And in your previousPico video I saw my father in laws house and the area we stay in when we are there. São Roque. I love the restaurant-the view is fantastic. But also the smaller restaurant/bar Adega-great spot to lounge on a summer night for drinks. Can’t wait to be there again this summer. But my heart belongs to Terceira.

@@portuguesehydrangea4818 Awww this is phenomenal 😂🫣 I guess being local, you must know everything and everyone. We met a few communities.

@portuguesehydrangea4818 8 месяцев назад

@@christinenobles I live in California ☀️My parents were from Terceira and I was born in the US. But whenever I go to the islands it feels like home. Helps that I married a man who is also Portuguese (American born) but still has ties to his fathers island of Pico. We visit the islands fairly often. Lots of “older” people there. 😉 You were brave to run with the bulls!! That is the most “Terceira” thing you could possibly do! lol
