It's been a while, but trust me, i have not missed any form of computer/network or laptop...
Ilha Grande is one of those islands that just hypnotises you. it draws you in. it forces you to love it.
yesterday was all about 'the' tourist activity - the much talked about boat cruises. dont let me discredit it. it is worth every 100Real, for nothing other than an unshaded speedboat, 11 hours in the glaring sun and nothing else other than stopping at 7 beaches. but boy. These beaches are not simply just any beach. the water is a colour that I have never seen before. well, i lie. i have seen this colour before. on postcards. in magazines. no doubt 'magically enhanced' to make sure the colour looks surreal. these colours were not 'helped' or 'enhanced' in any way shape or form. if you want to witness turqouise water, with perfect, clear visibility and schools of fish, come to ilha grande. it will blow you away.
oh, and the fish dinners? they will blow you away here too. it is unbelievable.
in fact. ilha grande is nearly too good to be true!
