Barra do Lagoa, Brasil

I´m still on the Ilha de Santa Catarina, but on the other side at a beach where the waves are world class and the beaches are sillica soft, clean and never ending. We´re staying in a cheap place in a tiny town called Barra do Lagoa, which roughly translates as the lagoon penninsula since the town is between an lagoon and the sea. I´m glad to be out of the overrated Floranopolis and in a small town where I might take some surf lessons and just relax, some more. It´s really nice here. I`m getting tired of saying it now, and feel bad since I´m always in some nice place and seeing new and amazing things.

Internet is expensive here, so I´ll have to be brief (almost $2 an hour). We've been eating well in Brazil, not only at John and Helen´s, but the restaurants make good food and serve large portions. The buffet is very popular, and there many burger/sandwich places to fill in the empty spaces. I should write more about the food when I have more time, because it´s not very different, but still interesting how much food one can get for five dollars.
