• Cabo Frio, Brazil

    March 5, 2023, South Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F

    Cabo Frio is a municipality in the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro. It known for its beaches. So for today we decided to go to the beach.
    Before going I removed my phone from the case to put it in a waterproof case and saw that the back of the phone is all cracked. That is why only few pictures for today.
    We hired a taxi with another couple and in 10min were on the beach. Despite being only 9:00am, the beach was crowded. The sand on the beach is white and like a silk.
    We rented 4 chairs and an umbrella and settled on the beach.
    Boris and I went to swim and encountered one unusually big wave. The wave covered us completely and we both lost our glasses and Boris lost his hat. Couple people came to help Boris to get back on the beach. Not a big deal, but without sun glasses and a hat….not the best.
    I found a vendor on the beach and purchased two pairs of sunglasses for $10. Good deal. Fifteen minutes later, a nice guy delivered Boris’s hat. We are all set!
    The water in the ocean is clean and refreshing. We spent 4 hours on the beach and then went to a local restaurant for lunch. Delicious!
    Uber ride after lunch and we are back on the tender boat for a ride to the ship.
    Small salad for dinner that is all we could eat after big lunch.
    Glad tomorrow is a sea day. Time to rest.
