Trancoso

This is Trancoso...about 40 minutes by irregular bus, along god knows which road, through back country of god knows where...

At last the sun came out

after 2 days of god for saken rain and it was an absolutely stunning HOT day.. I dont know what temperature but it was right up there.

Like Arraial D A'juda, Trancoso also sits on a bluff overlooking the ocean- as you can see on the left there. There is a Church as you can see, and in front of the church is just lovely green grass that goes forever.. lined by beautiful, colourful 1 level shops, pousadas and restaurants which tables and chairs bagging space under the big trees. Colour everywhere!

On the beach I saw these people having a great time trying to cross the water opening there. If you can see the girl on the right has something in her hands, she is selling prawns on skewers and maybe a smaller version of lobster as well- all nicely placed on banana leaves for you to buy as you sit there like a fat slob on the beach.. she offered me and I was nearly sick all over her days work...

I just noticed the sky looks completely different in all the photos.. please excuse my terrible editing HAHAHA im on holidays....

Spent only half a day there.. was very hot and tiring.. life is hard here you know... A man told me that they "work" on the beach during the day time (more like catching some rays!) and then dance the Forró at night time... poor them!

tchau for now
