With Easter is fast approaching (there is no way you could miss it in Brazil! Easter is EVERYWHERE... huge here... a post on that coming soon...) since it is a long weekend, we have decided to say Happy Easter to ourselves by getting out of town and exploring some more of this beautiful country!
We are off to Angra dos Reis, staying at the Pousada da Figueira - be warned, the English site does not work but you don't need to understand Portuguese to look at pretty pictures, or the fish that greets you when you log on!
Apparently we need to climb a small ladder of sorts to get into our room...
Angra dos Reis is a 2 hr drive from Rio, an area with over 365 small islands, 2,000 beaches, beautiful waterfalls. It's highly recommended for hiking, biking, diving, sailing, jetskiing, surfing, paragliding, etc. Local site to learn about the area if you are interested.
No word on if the Easter Bunny makes it out there or not but we are not too worried...
