Camillo with his first (this visit) caiprinha in Salvador I promise - if I can make it through this week following my old (er than me) husband around as he 'works' the Brazilian Geophysical Society Convention in Salvador, Bahia - then I PROMISE I will take it easy for a month, take eating easy for a month, and stay home in Friburgo for a month - unless we have to go to Rio, of course.
I hope to have a few photos for you as I walk the city while Camillo works. I will have to take my small Sony because taking the Nikon out while alone is like wearing a sign that says 'take me I am a stupid tourist'. Today we drove with friends to Cachoeira e São Félix about 120 km from Salvador. These little towns are supposed to be in the process of being preserved, but I could only imagine the millions that would be needed to put them into 'bring tourists flocking' condition.
A few photos to show the work that needs to be done and the potential these towns have.
Very cool pictures! Love the gate especially, but I can see the potential of the buildings as well.
ReplyDeleteEsta caipirinha parece boa mesmo !
ReplyDeleteMe parece que o Estado já começou a reformar algumas casa nestas cidades.
Porém, a reforma do Pelourinho ele ainda não terminou.
Um dia acaba.
Rss...
Bom passeio !
Saudações,

The ironwork is definitely worth saving. The last building is pretty. Some building here in the Southern USA look like this. I enjoyed the walk :-)
