1-6 Feb - Beach hopping!

After all the soggy weather, crew ferried us off to the coast and some sun. After a couple of long truck days, we hit our first beach in Porto Seguro. Our campsite was across the road from the beach, but with a nice pool and shady, poolside bed areas to lounge, I didn't get as far as the beach or the markets that some of the others visited. A few had several caiparinha's and took to the ping pong table on our last evening here. That's how we roll, oh yeah!

Next stop was Olivenca and we were even closer to the beach this time, with nothing between our campsite and the beach, which was beautiful, quiet/empty and had lively crashing waves.

More lazing around here and a beach BBQ to round off the day. With little light polution, the milky way was visible again. Beautiful stars and the sound of the crashing waves. Not bad eh? I really need to live by the sea.

One last stop before Salvador, where we watched the England v Brazil football match and I reaffirmed in my mind that I just don't like football. :-o
