After a year and a half finally I had a “beach day”. We went to a very nice one located in the north of Salvador called “Flamengo Beach”. It was a 1 hour bus trip but totally worth it.
We got nice chairs, beach umbrella and stayed on the beach from 10 a.m to 5 p.m. The sea was a bit cold, but a little bit after noon the sea went back a little and it created “natural pools” incredibly nice to swim and calm.
This is a picture of Carol coming out from one of them.
We had some culinary experiences too. We had the famous “Grilled cheese in a stick” it’s delicious and kinda cheap. We also ate some Crab Pasteis…
Grilled cheese, nhamy.
It was a fun and calm day on the beach. Tomorrow we are going to see SEA TURTLES 😀 I hope the place it’s open.
Here we go, summer again. In the “winter” here during the day the lowest temperature is 28ºC. So imagine where everybody were?
This is one small beach by the city of Salvador
My mother and stepfather joined me and Carol today. We walked on the beach and all along the shore. The lighthouse is very nice here and there are TONS of people today.
You can see the lighthouse in the back.
Today we walked in Pelourinho, the place MICHAEL JACKSON recorded a video clip of the song “They don’t care about us”.
Here we are in the central spot of place he recorded the song.
To finish the day in great “Baiano” style we ate a SHRIMP MIX, it was incredible, 4 kinds of shrimp and nice sidings.
Tomorrow we are going to stay on a beach a little longer… hopefully gonna get some tan :p
This month completes 14 months that I’m “stuck” on only two seasons. I don’t know what is beach for more than a year and a half now. But this is going to change! Today I’m getting into an airplane and going to the northeast of Brazil… this means that I’m flying around 4 hours and my scenario will change quite a bit. In Salvador it’s summer the whole year, while here in Porto Alegre it’s around 5 degrees now, in Salvador it’s around 27º!!!
This is the trip I’m doing today:
It’s a little bit more than 3.000 km. Probably worth it.
This is the first time I’m going to the northeast of Brazil, so I don’t have any picture to show… but I hope that this week I get back my writing here. So here it’s only a preview of what is expecting me. I know you, Canadians, are not that jealous… but I’m sure my friends here are hehehe, just kidding.
This is a famous elevator in the shore.
So get to go… I will post more during this next 10 days. See ya.

Well, after a whole morning trying to call to St. Lawrence and only being answered by recording machines, I thought: What a hell is going on on Kingston that all these people are not working at all. So I typed of facebook, and my dear canadian friends explained very patiently that today (July 1st) is CANADA DAY!
I’m jealous because we don’t have a BRAZIL or BRAZILIAN DAY…. that’s sad… Well I looked for some info… but you might know everything about it… so I took other approach… take a look on this video, it’s very good!
Congrats my fellow Canadians 🙂 (read till the bottom)
Dia primeiro de Julho é o dia do Canadá, o vídeo acima mostra o orgulho de ser canadense de uma forma meio sarcástica, mas o vídeo é bem produzido e está bem legal.
Como vocês devem suspeitar, essa data comemora a “criação” do Canadá. No dia primeiro de Julho de 1867 foi quando todos os estados que existiam se juntaram para formar um país. Eles ainda não eram livres, mas foi nessa data que começaram os trabalhos de liberdade. Na real acho que eles não são livres até hoje, pois eles devem respeito à rainha hehehehehe.
Para exemplificar consegui depoimentos de amigos para dizer o que os canadenses fazem nesse dia:
Chantelle Downling: “Esse é o dia que os canadenses ficam completamente bêbados, e dançam na chuva”
Tessa Gale: “É o dia de descanso dos mais velhos, e também aproveitamos para fazer um churrasco de hamburger, cachorro-quente e salada de batata caseira 🙂 Depois quem não tem mais o que fazer vai até o centro olhar os terríveis fogos de artifício… eles são uma droga todo ano :S hehehehe“
Esse foi um post misto… espero que tenham gostado 🙂
I am a Creative marketing professional. I love branding, planning and creativity. I love meeting new people and learning from them. Life goes by fast, so I try to do the above while having fun.
