On the plane ride over there I sat next to a Bahian. He was great- my first experience with a Bahian. He talked and talked as if he really didn't care too much if I was listening; he just wanted someone to talk to and enjoy the ride with. He was fun to talk and listen to.
Bahia is really a peaceful place. Our Land Rover Driver said "Bahia is peace." Another lady (visitor) explained Bahia as having a type of force that brings a great and happy energy.
I really enjoyed our trip. I couldn't talk enough about Itacare either. It is still a small town that received a paved road only 10 years ago. We made a bunch of friends there in the short amount of time we had, along with a lot of great experiences on beaches, lakes, surfboards/body boards, etc.
Here is me at the airport. (Cheap ticket 230 reais round trip ... not too shabby)
Close to the airport. I like the colors of Bahia. Most things are painted either yellow, green, or blue.
There are a lot of Caucau trees here. These produce the fruit cacau, whose seeds produce chocolate.
Resende beach close to the Pousada.
Me at the Pousade we stayed at, Albuergue o Pharol.
We went on a sweet excursion with Land Rovers.
We made it to a nice beach called Taipu de Fora. This place has clear water with coral reefs making natural pools.
Along the journey we also went through big swells of mud water, stopped to relax, saw big plants, ate caju, and even swam in the fresh water lake.
There are so many fruits in Bahia. This is Jay eating Caju in the mirror. Some other fruits I've never heard of here include the following: caju, umbu, jaca, jenipapo, caja, siriguela, cacau (the seed makes chocolate), etc.
It was nice swimming in fresh water.
This is at Tiririca, the 3rd closest beach to our pousada.
