is where we should be right now, however instead sunday night we got a bus to florianopolis in the south of brazil with the intent of learning to surf. from florianopolis bus station we took two local buses to prior de joaquin where we were going to stay but on arrival decided to stay in campech a town (acording to the guide book) just down the beach. so as it started to rain, and whilst getting wierd looks from surfers and people in resteraunts (ok it did look ike i was feeling john up when i was actually putting the waterproof cover of his bag on!) we set of for our stroll down the beach. an hour and a half later, completely soaked we turned up at the ecolodge which the guidebook suggested only to find it was 80 reis a night!!! the person who wrote the chapter on the southern region of brazil in the lonely planet guide is a bad bad bad person!!!! so completely exhausted we resigned ourselves to a night in the overly priced lodge and the next day were going to get a bus to barra de lagoa and stay in an international back packers lodge.
so this morning rolled round and just as we were about to leave we found out that the buses had gone on strike! thus we had to hike 20km with our backpacks on!!!! 2.5 hours later we finally arrived and chilled on the beach!! looks like tommorow we will finally get to learn to surf. we are in an absoloutely stunning area, and the sunset today was amazing but my legs are killing me!
hope you guys are all well!
god bless you billions
