Paraty

I spent the weekend in Paraty, a Portuguese colonial town about halfway between Rio and Sao Paulo. I met Paul and Luke there, and it was great to have some company after a few very chilled days on Ihla Grande!



Such pretty streets...but the cobbles sucked! 
This reminded me of Grandpa and smelt exactly like his workshop :)
The old town was really pretty and lovely to wander around (huge cobbled streets though, so def not a city to wear heels in!). We went to Trinidade for the afternoon, a famous beach in the area. It was beautiful.

Luke and I found out about a local brewery tour and thought it was a great idea....forgetting that it would be in Portuguese! Fortunately it was a very small brewery so the tour didn't last too long...and thanks to our basic Portuguese we understood a few words (water, here, main hahaha). It was in a very German themed bar, with flags and German colours everywhere. So cool!!

A very happy Luke!
Yum!
