13-15th Feb - Lencois and bushcamping

Lencois, a former diamond mining town. Again, a beautiful colonial town with cobbled streets but this one had a few more squares for chilling out in and seemed a bit funkier than other towns. A cool place to while away some time.

waiting for our day trip out




We went on a tour of the local sights; caves and waterfalls, culminating in watching sunset.
Time for a dip





Some of the gang went for a blue cave snorkel


The tannins (what? Like tea?) made the rocks go a lovely pink


That, plus a roam around town and we were off again. Talking of being off, largely over my cold, my tum was not getting any better so crew brought out the antibiotics to try and nuke the bug that's going round us all.

1200km to go to get to Brazilia, so we stopped off for a bushcamp. We camped on a road/cut-through in a wood and had one of our nicest bush camps to date.

Home for the night
