Villa Gale Mares Camacari

... ausgestiegen. Dann immer nach Norden gelaufen, den Strand kann man nicht mehr verlassern, da ueberall Villen mit Hunden und Security sind....dafuer ist der Strand dann schoen leer :) nach 3 oder 4 Stunden dann in einem kleinem Dorf angekommen, nix guenstiges zum schlafen gefunden, also wieder in den ersten bus...nach arembepe. Dort dasselbe Spiel, badeorte sind teuer :) Also weiter nach Norden, dann auf etwas ...

... confirmed by Brazillian friends of Dominic that he had been, quite decidedly kissing a man. He may have lost on numbers that night but he definitely took home the trophy. I myself was propositioned by a very cute English boy and while I declined anything further, he was very nice to kiss (although I was probably just an addition to his tally) ;) My last night bar one in Salvador was the highlight. Fat boy slim was playing in one of the blocos and while at ~$160AUD I couldn´t ...

... o ano inteiro. Os presentes também vi que fazem o papel certo, que servem principalmente para que se sinta mais próximo da pessoa de quem se recebeu (ou mais importante, para quem se deu) o presente. Fica aqui meu agradecimento aos familiares por mais esse tempo que me foi cedido, e por me mostrar de forma que não pude criticar a parte verdadeira do espírito natalino, que deixo aqui simbolizado por esse cartão (roubado do blog de Vanessa):

... check out all the hummingbirgs, I have seen so many species in the last few weeks, they really are the coolest little characters, buzzing around. Loving Brazil and the Brazilian people. Thinking only Brazilian women look good in Brazilian bikinis. But where are all the women, the (very buff) men are playing volleyball, beach tennis, walking around... where are the women??? We went for a great walk to the fort and got totally rained out ...

... brazilian bodies ... and we are drank and writing in this blog right now!!! GORGEOUS. Anyway, the best thing you can have during traveling is to enjoy knowing new people, regardless to have fiesta or not. The night was absolutely fantastic (and we drank caipiroska with kiwy). Muchos besos y que la vida os vaya estupendamente. Si decidis venir a Madrid, sereis muy bien recibidos y os montaremos un plan estupendo con viaje a Ibiza incluido. Va en serio la invitaci ...

... was tossed between the Dutch and British rulers, and how the inhabitants lived out their lives in the various industries of Flax, Dairy farms, and more recently coffee. The island is presently only accessible by either ship or yacht, but during our stay plans for an airport was being passed around and a test run to see if it was possible was demonstrated. So it might be on its way... We spent three weeks indulging in the many delights of this island, coastal walks to the ...

... only. A lot of smiles from all the locals and endless friendly restaurants to satisfy the appetite. We stop at the first one we see for a huge buffet lunch for again (so cheap $6Reais per person) delicious! Tender chicken and beef, rice, veges, beans (feijoda) salads etc.

For the rest of the day we browse the local handcrafts, sunbake on the soft white sand and float in the clear blue atlantic ocean...this is the life.

... bright art shops forever being carefull to not trip over the stones. meandering our way up to one of many plazas filled with plastic chairs and tables flowing with cheap beer and nasty street food. the lonely planet(our bible) told us this place was the hub of afro Brazilian music food and dance and it was not wrong. a lot of slaves were brought here from Africa and it shows in the faces of the people and the culture, its amazing. we pasted by rasta guys with ...

... of persuasion from some mates from the hostel, I let myself get swept into the euphoria and had a great time, following the bloco until the very end (outside the ropes, didn´t wanna pay A$200 for a ticket). I mean, it wasn´t "carnaval", with loads of white guys and girls dancing badly, but was fun and good for a change. And I really enjoyed some of the samples he used - stuff like "billie jean" and "sunshine of your love". 2nd best night of carnaval for me. Salvador was one of the least ...

... usually means around 11 or 12. So we occupied ourselves amongst the crowds and the constant music as well as the other passing blocos until a shocking 2:30am when our bloco finally decided it was ready to begin! By that time the streets were so packed that our roped in group could barely pass by and at times it seemed better outside of the ropes! At times, pressed in between my friends and a sweaty, enthusiastic ...
