Paraty (pronounced par.ah.ch.ee. -remeber to roll your R) is awesome. There are mountains all around and the water is so clear. We woke up early to do laundry and use the Internet. Breakfast was good- my favorite was the strawberry tea.
Today we took a boat ride around the little cove of Paraty. There are bunches of little islands owned by rich Brazilians in this area. A few people from our group rode with us and we all enjoyed every bit. There was live music and the boat made 3 stops. We stopped at a beach first where Steph and I jumped in the water even though we were already cold. The water was warm and before we even had a chance to dry off we stopped at a place to snorkel. There weren´t any fish bigger than my fist, so we hung around the boat instead. Next we had a quick lunch and stopped at another beach. It started to rain and the deck boys opened the tarp. We walked through old town Paraty on the way home (very touristy) and I bought a very cute purse- I am so sick of carrying my little backpack! The streets are designed so that when the tide comes up it fills the streets with water and cleans them. It also looks neat.
Doreen, Steph and I made a trip to the grocery store and bought some beer and wine for tonight. Next stop was the sauna and then the best shower we have seen (or felt) yet. We ordered pizza and playing a few hands of cards. Now, I´m calling it a night. ´Night!´
