Bird's eye view of Quinta dos Galos

forgive me for droning on
5

The drone starts high above the horta and zooms downw here you can see the five raised beds and the greenhouse and metal-roofed, ivy-topped garden shed. Just north of the shed is the top of the garage, with nine solar panels on top.

Across the cottage steps from the garage is the tile-roofed carport, and just south of the carport (but one level up - that’s hard to see from the angle of the drone) is the fruit orchard, the trees are so new it looks like a bare rectangle with one bushy orange tree. West of the fruit orchard is the double pool house.

The palaceta courtyard is the big white oval that fronts the palaceta. Behind the palaceta you can see the blue-tiled pool (empty). At the top of the long staircase is the casita. At the 1:05 mark you can just make our the stone staircase behind the casita, just to the east - that leads to the Back 40 - four tree-scattered undeveloped hectares of land.

The one house not visible is the garden house where I currently live in the bottom unit; the house is located just beyond view of the huge bushy Monterey pine treetop you see at the far left of your screen at the :39 mark of the video.
