Nightlife in Rio

Samba, samba, samba!!! One big party!

Finally meeting Christ in Rio.

Amazing views over Rio from Christ´s statue. Copacabana, Ipanema... all within minutes. Inspiring!



Where´s Wally!?

Christ showing us the way back home...

Whale watching in Praia do Forte

With a day off from travel, we were chatting at breakfast to someone who had just seen whales up the coast... we left that same morning, and managed to get to lovely Praia Do Forte and get on a tour to see humpback whales do their thing 12 miles off the coast. Amazing stuff.

Sunny Salvador de Bahia

At last, a few days in the same place... so we thought! Salvador is home to Capoiera, Samba, and Carnival. (every day!) Great vibe to the place, street parties every Tuesday (because it´s Tuesday of course!), friday and Saturday.

Start them young... and with a coconut...

Lovely Lencois. Not quite the walking break we were after, but amazing all the same!

Edel managed to find a natural whirlpool that kept her busy for AGES!

After a day of hunting, we finally tracked down the last waterfall on the list... to be honest, it was possibly a little disappointing!

Sun setting from the Pao Ignacio.

Amazing scenery, and miles away from the Amazon!

The Camel rock.

The blue cave. Beautiful light around midday on completely translucent waters.

1km of enormous cave! With all sorts of incredible rock formations.

The natural waterslide. It was bumpy enough on my bum, let alone trying it standing up like the locals do!

Partying in Salvador... just because it´s Tuesday!
