Day 30: Joao Pessoa part 1


Day 30: Joao Pessoa part 1

Today we got on a bus and went to Joao Pessoa. It was a small town just a few hours from where I am now. First of all, we had a 48 passenger bus, and there were only 21 of us. It was fantastic to have a whole row to yourself. I slept, and was comfortable on reclining seats.

When we got there, we had to stay in groups of 3, I decided to room with Sara and Carla. They are fantastic, and I like them a lot. We went to our rooms and got ready for the rest of the day.

We changed into bathing suits and went to the beach. It was a really nice beach. The weather was not perfect, a little overcast, but we made the best of it. I was in the water forever, because I just love being in the water, it makes me feel like I am a little fish. Some of the group played sports on the sand. I am not a big fan of sand, and I am not a big fan of getting hurt, so I just sat and watched them. Some people dug holes in the sand, and built stuff with the sand, like a gator. Overall it was really relaxing and really fun.

We eventually made it to this beautiful boardwalk overlooking a gorgeous river.  

However, things got really strange when this man got on a boat and started playing the saxophone. 
Apparently, he is actually very famous in Joao Pessoa and people love listening to him play the sax. It was very humorous to me, and for some reason all I could think about was Sexy Sax Man from YouTube.  Either way, the music was fun to listen to because the saxophone happens to be my favorite instrument. We had dinner there, and walked along the board walk. Of course, there was more arts and crafts to be looked at and bought, but I didn’t buy any.

Later that night we just watched the  Walking Dead, the best tv show ever. Fun times.
