Paraty

Let's mention that on the way to Ilha Grande, once we step on the boat I realized that we left all our passports in Petropolis!!!! Just great...However, if you really have to loose your passport once in your life just choose the guest house in Petropolis where the nicest man run the place. We call him and the passports are secure, however on the way back from Ilha grande we will have to drive back to Rio 2 and half hours way to meet the man and then drive down to Paraty 3 hours down south again! Oh well the day is cloudy ... Because of this little incident we get to our Pousada in the jungle outside Paraty in the dark. The apartment is super cozy and has bay window all over with the jungle around and the noise of the waterfall! You can't get more nature than that! Next day we visit Paraty, Colonial town with huge cobblestone and with lots of charm. I buy a ring that I really like and enjoy the strolling around and visit the fort with a great view of the bay.
