Marina Park Fortaleza

We will post trip information here as soon as it starts. For 2010, we will continue planning the project and look for Sponsors that are willing to invest and support the Project. All indications in that regard is ...

Woke up to fabulous views of the beach no more than a few meters away. We seem to be staying in the deluxe apartments, (3 bedroom/bathroom, so we each have en-suite), even though we booked the cheaper ones. They have outside hammocks, huge beanbags, lots of comfy chairs and are finished off inside to v high spec. "Result o'clock" as Mr Verdier would say.<br> <br>And it gets better when we discover that we can kitesurf straight from ...

Arrived at Cumbuco Airport apprx 22 hrs since we woke up. Thankfully we got thru passport control in 20 mins (we were 6th of plane) - chaos there and locals get priority. Loupey and Alex spend 1.5 hrs there yesterday!!<br>Met our taxi driver who spoke not a word of English, fortunately I grasped that he wanted us to wait by the bus station from similar words to Spanish. Alex was excitedly telling him in ...

Me and Lisseth went to Beach Park today! Its a water park outside of fortaleza, like those in the United States, it was great!! We had alot of fun. It was her first time in a park like this. This is the only one in South America of this size. Wave pools, water rides, the works!! Brazil is very impressive, very developed, great infrastructure and alternatives to travel to other cities, which is important to me.<br><br>Check out the picks!<br><br><br><br>

OK everybody! Im gettin close! Closer to paradise!<br><br>The northeast of Brazil is distincly different than the south (Rio, Sao Paolo). Beautiful beaches, fresher air, less people, less hustlers and peace and quiet. The city leaves alot to be desired though, its really not developed but who cares!! Just drink coconut water and chill on the beach with my peruvian chica all day ...

the thing i love about traveling is not just the lands, mountains and cultures. but it is the people you meet on the way. whether local, or other travelers, you come across some people that really leave an impression on you and maybe even change you. this part of the trip here in fortaleza has been as good as it gets so far. meeting up with old friends, playing music, talking about anything and everything, and just relaxing at the beach. <br><br>i just got back ...

... and it was a nice change of pace, compared to the cramped/smelly/dirty places we've been in so far. We're taking a bus to Salvador tonight(7pm), and that should be interesting. Salvador is largely black in population, because it had a large number of slaves during. It has lots of culture and soul, and I'm looking forward to exploring the city. Tchau tchau

... bus left from and then went off to find some internet access, via a quick peak at the beach. <br><br> <br><br>From this perspective the town reminds me of Surfer's Paradise on the Gold Coast of Australia, but thankfully without all those bloody "schoolies"! <br><br>So here I am in our 216th internet cafe of our world tour. <br><br>As you probably remember I was driven absolutely ...

... her credit, she had more patience than anyone I´ve ever met. My salsa dancing is about as good as Gunn is at being tall. I salsa danced, or at least my version of it for awhile and I never caught on and I think I´m worse now then I was to begin with. One step forward, two steps back (in a literal sense also). I tried to order a vodka tonic, but the bartender had no idea what I was talking about. I asked Cleiber how to say it in Portuguese ...

... o amando as pererecas. Kakakaka Eu disse "o banheiro". Tem muita gente para um vaso só. O outro vaso está com alguns problemas. Estão tentando adaptar mais um chuveiro para nós. Tem uma outra turma (as mulheres) que está alojada na parte superior do seminário onde estamos hospedados. O nosso banheiro entupiu.... rs O Tio Cullen deu ordem para não fazermos quase nada no banheiro. Podemos tomar banho e fazer "pouca coisa". rs S ...
