    Lazy day

    April 24, 2016 in Brazil ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    Poor Clare woke up with a headache accompanied by an unusual dose of grumpy. After breakfast it felt too hot to do anything so we lazed around in hammocks and tried to Skype Beth for her birthday.
    Then we retreated to our air conditioning and put on a DVD from their library. Unfortunately it was a pirated one, we could actually see the edge of the cinema screen and the seats in front. It was also in Portuguese and of course had no subtitles so we gave up.

    We went to lunch and then walked the Abraão circuit which is a shady 2 km trek through beach, river and jungle. After that we needed a swim. The water is a really decent temperature but has lovely refreshing cold currents that appear.

    When we got home Clare sat on the bed - no leaping - and it broke! Quite dramatic but very funny. They are trying to fix it now.

    We've booked a full day circuit of the island boat tour tomorrow. Beaches, snorkelling and factor 50!
