Got here 5hrs after leaving Rio, even though it was only supposd to take 3! Drove long the Costa Verde (green coast) with the beach & bay on one side & tropical rainforest on the other. Awesome! Roohi relieved and delighted to find an immaculate room at the Pousada after Rio. We highly recommend this place. Paraty (pronounced Parachee) has a historical town centre listed as a UNESCO heritage site with pedestrianised cobbled streets. Festival in town with lots of stalls, really lively ...
Paraty, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil ashah_008
Paraty is a little charmer of a town where the natives have decided to abandon the alphabet and pronounce ´ty´as ´chi´ meaning it´s actually called ´Parachi´, we weren´t put off the place despite the grammatical error.
It´s just what our limited imaginations told us a South American town would look like; dusty pot holed roads lined with swarthy locals leaning in shop doors, oozing menace as they scan the streets for gringos to rob while a stray dog limps around looking for a place to d...
We´ve had a busy week since I last wrote so make a cup of tea and prepare for a long one. Okay so last time you left us in Paraty about to go on a couple of trips. The first one we took was to some waterfalls and a farm/distillery (there´s diversification for you Mitchells). It was quite enjoyable but trying to make a lot about nothing really. I did have a dip in the river beneath the waterfall and the water was just like home...freezing cold. The water in the sea, however, is gorgeous as I d...

We arrived in Paraty last night and checked into our Pousada which is adorable! There is a lovely little pool and a relaxation area with books and games etc. I made friends with Fi Fi the cat who took a shining to me - I was rubbing her but next thing she tries to take a chunk off my finger - thank god I got my rabies jabs which were questionable! Ror had dissapeared to get the camera to take a pic of me and my new friend so I was willing him to come back and rescue me! I tried to take Fi Fi ...

Ola from Paraty - Day 2.
We are getting on just fine with our few words of Portuguese - Ola (hello - we all know that), Obrigado (thank you), De Nada (your welcome), Quando? (how much), choa (bye) and a little bit of sign lanuage gets you a long way let me tell you! The people we have met so far are so friendly and helpful - it makes it so much easier when you dont have the language.
I (sharon) woke this morning and I was aching from the cycling - seriously my bum and arms have ...

... a bit like Breeze, so now we have plenty of horse photos.
Paraty is quiet - its midweek in low season, and there is only 1 festival on at the moment, so we seem to be the only people in town - we are the only ones staying at our hostel anyway which is rather a strange experience.
We took a jeep tour to see the waterfalls - and are the only people on the tour... Our very ...

Ferried by Boat to Lopes Mendes
After a few days of hiking and diving, it was time to relax on the beach. We took the R$15 (USD7) roundtrip ferries that run frequently over to Lopes Mendes. The boat ride took an hour, we thought it was a much quicker ferry, but it was a beautiful day and nice ride that provided us with views of a different part of the island. Once we docked, we had a 20 minute hike over a steep hill through the rainforest to arrive at ...
... mensen. In het park aangekomen in vloeiend Portugees een nu nog steeds niet geindentificeerd broodje besteld en lekker in de schaduw zitten chillen. Een stukje Braziliaanse cultuur konden wij natuurlijk niet laten lopen, dus wij zijn langs diverse musea gelopen en bij een zijn we zelfs voor de kassa gaan staan om de entreeprijzen te bekijken. Bij de locale Central Perk een cappuccino en ice-T gedronken, waarna de tour caravaan helaas door moest. Placa Se stond vervolgens op het ...

... and I mean lashed - enough to cause the river to flood!! In the morning the water level was still really high, but at least the rapids that had been gushing through the town had stopped! Julia saw 2 boats being swept out to sea, and a man we spoke to the next day knew a man who had found his car in the morning...up a tree!! We had a random street party ...

... images and a piano, the place is peppered with new technologies like surround sound stereo system. Seems no matter who you re in Brazil, a good sound system is a must. I would love to come back to Paraty, seemed just three days was too few to really get a feel for the place. I loved the live music in the square that went on into the night and the friendliness of the people. If you ever get a chance you should go and be charmed by Paraty.
