Rua 17, Lote 14, Quadra 0, Praia Brava Buzios, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 28950-000, 22-2623-5943
ALI: After a couple of days chilling out, we made the short 2 ½ hour bus ride to the coastal town of Buzios, made famous in the 1960's when Brigitte Bardot was snapped here by the paparazzi frolicking on one of the 25 beaches it boasts. This in turn lead to its christening as the 'St Tropez of South America', which was reaffirmed in a very timely manner in the August edition of UK Glamour magazine which Simon had, with suspicious generosity, handed over $12 for in Rio. Staying at the Brava ho...

... plans were for the evening. One evening, one of the couples who had just arrived, didn't feel like going into town for dinner. Susan and Matt have a menu with sandwiches, soups, salads and it looked so delicious!<br><br>I was so sad to have to leave and go back to the real world! I loved it there, and actually could have just stayed at the inn the entire time. Next time (and there will definitely be a next time!!), we just may ...
Buzios, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil bandkday... that night at a first-class buffet restaurant (is there such a thing in the States?) where I was a little overwhelmed by the continuous offerings of food and giant carcasses of meats being brought to the table every other minute. We then went to a bar and hung out before deciding to meet for breakfast the next morning and say our goodbyes.<br><br>I woke up early the next morning to go walk the beaches before breakfast. Unfortunately, it was ...
Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil stacy... high regard- they are openly obsessed with being tanned (only natural!!) and they are out in the masses from 6am til dusk running/walking in bikinis and speedos. Yes, this means even fat 60 yr old men are out running on the bike tracks by the beach in their speedos! <br><br><br>Thats just a quick summary of what comes to mind!<br><br><br>[Also, i have finished the Snoop Dogg tour and have photos! YAY!]<br><br>Back to chilling....<br>
Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil u4408492... snort here and there! No, she is not a drug dealer! That's Felipe! JOKE!<br><br>Thurs was our first real opportunity to get accustomed to Rio - prior to this we had been harboured in either a plane, car or the hostel! It was time to listen to George Michael for once and go outside! Our morning began with a banking expedition - I exaggerate not - and success eventually came in the from of what resembled a travel agent! For the first time the palm trees of the ...

Needless to say we reached a compromise i.e. I got what I wanted and he didn't LOL. So 4 dib dabs it was lol. It's a souvenir I guess and it comes off in 20 days. When the sun started to feel too hot at about 2:30pm I went to a café and got a light snack and drink then headed back to the hostel for a shower. After I ...

Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil elinolsennalum... of Rio were the beaches..in that it felt like some sort of a movie seeing Copacabana and Ipanema, the electric blue skies, gorgeous sands and rich Carioca vibe....there were no english sitting fully clothed, trousers rolled up to their knees and a newspaper in hand....not until we turned up.! We had a pretty momentous trip to a Favella..Santa Marta Favella.. This was never on the agenda to get in and amonsgt the Favella's, mainly because of the unknown and the movie City ...

I try stabbing him anyway but I can`t really reach him and he keeps like hissing at me which sucks. I keep hitting the wall or the ground with the spear and after about 5 minutes of battle I give up and declare him the winner. I call Gina and tell her that I`m spending the night. No way am I staying here. I leave a ...
Buzios, Brazil merkdog4Stunning Buzios - 15th-21st December 2006 Set off east of Rio for sun, sand and sea to Buzios. After a hot, swerving taxi we arrived at our Beach House.

We hired a really cool red beach buggy to explore the beaches, bays and countryside, bliss!! Bargain shopping for ...
