Saquarema:
Moving on from Ipanema, we made our way east of Rio to the Surfing town of Saquarema, where we have spent the past few days trying to surf.....again :-) Great fun and very comical, but the Ituana waves are very aggressive; Isa has literally flown off the board like a bird!!!! the instructor had to remind Isa, it was not about taking off but surfing;-p Again another fantastic place: Our Pousada where we stayed was just a stone throw away from the beach. Great locals here too, but out of the big city the Brazilian is even more difficult to understand, making it all the more entertaining....it sounds like a song so just keep smiling and everything will go fine!!! ;-) On our last day we met a group of Brazilian friends from Sao Paulo, who spoke fantastic English, which was great for us. Great people that we hope to meet again before leaving Brazil.

Tomorrow we are leaving this small paradise for another :-) Ilha Grande (south of Rio and north of Sao Paulo).......to be continued

Busy winter sunday on Itauma beach
 . Saquarema est un port de peche qui possede une des meilleurs vagues du Braisil. La plage s appelle Itauma et nous avons eu le plaisir de passer 5 jours en face de la vague, litteralement sur la plage.... dur dur. L objectif etait de reprendre des cours de surf et de surfer au moins une vague.....petite de preference;-) succes............enfin....
Les gens du coin sont super sympas mais encore plus difficile a comprendre que les Cariocas....ce qui ajoute du fun a nos journeesJ Le Braisilien c est comme une chanson, c est beau a ecouter et meme si tu ne comprends, souris et "c est tout de ben....."nous avons la chance de rencontrer un groupe d amis de São Paulo qui parlaient un parfait anglais.... ... des gens vraiment sympa que nous esperons pouvoir rencontrer a nouveau avant de quitter le Braisil...

Demain nous quittons ce petit paradis pour un autre, Ilha Grande, au sud de Rio et au Nord de São Paulo. A suivre
