Almost a classic, anyway ... no Melksham, no Taunton ... and you may have seen some of these pictures before.

6.  Funchal, Madeira.  I've been on that cable car.  I thought I might feel worried by the height above ground in some places but I wasn't.  I strongly recommend taking the ride if you happen to be there.

5. has a lot of clues - or rather more than clues, really. The tram stop is, as it says, Trinidad, and Tranvia is the system/operator in/on Tenerife.

The height of the Funchal cable car was not my idea of fun. Did it twice reluctantly because Junior loves it, but I didn’t look down much…
