Just for those who live inland or in the far north...

OHHHH! I don't know how Camillo does it. Every morning he bounds out of bed, checks his email, does business ... eats a large breakfast, catches a taxi and goes until 1pm or so, has lunch with overly enthusiastic young people.... comes back to the hotel around 5 ..... takes a deep snoring nap, then bounds out of bed to get ready for dinner.... at 1:30 AM we were back here to sleep.... at 7:30 he bounds out of bed.... I drag myself upright and now at 10:00 am ready to go for a walk with my cameras.... how does he do it?

I am sorry I cannot capture on film the smell of the air or the softness of the breeze, but here is a short video for those of you that live in the interior, whether it be Brazil, or the USA or Europe.... or live in the desert or the side of a glacier, enjoy this moment standing on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean as the tide rolls in.

 
Getting your feet wet!

  1. Oh, that was refreshing! I love the feeling of the sand disintegrating under my feet! The color of the water is gorgeous.
    This was the next best thing to being there!

  2. Don't worry - I can smell the sea in your photos (and isn't it odd? I was making the same complaint over at my blog last night - but I was talking about roses). Maybe you and I will co-invent the first Smell-o-matic camera!

  5. Ah, fresh air. Smells different from our bay breeze.

    Oceans and bays, like flowers, have their own wonderful smells that make us want to grab a chair or towel and stay forever.

  6. Thank you for the mini vacation to the beach in Rio, Ginger! I didn't even need a plane. How did you know I really needed that refresher? Thanks so much!
