After 2 weeks and a day in Barra de Tijuca (i.e. Elysium), we are now in Angra Dos Reis (the green coast). It's beautiful here. Our first day we took a drive up the coast to see a pretty beach in Angra, that had green waters and a little church in the corner. It was really nice, lots of hills, jungle, and run-down roads (reminded us of Jamaica). When we got there, there was an old dock, lots of locals, and Evie was having the time of her life meeting friends. We met a family with 2 boys and a girl that played a lot with her, and the parents said they wanted to take us to an even nicer beach 15 minutes further down the coast. So we followed them in their car, and wow, it was amazing. The water was even greener, it was in a lagoon area with beautiful vistas on all sides and palm trees.
When we got back we watched the sunset in the resort were's staying at's infinity pool right on the water overlooking the little Islands. This resort, Golden Tulip Porto Bali, is pretty sweet. The pools snake around, it's gorgeous, and our place is really nice too. We got an amazing deal too. We just about died when we found out the 1 bedroom apartment here is 1000 R. And the free breakfast is amazing, never seen anything like it at a hotel.
Today we just hung out at the resort and went swimming. Very nice. And tomorrow we're going to take a boat ride to the island, Ilha Grande, and another small island next to it. Should be fun! Evie's having a great time at the pool though, just sitting in the Jacuzzi in the middle of the pool and meeting friends.
