Lagoinha Do Leste = Paradiso





We started in Praia Matadeiro and hiked around the coast and through the jungle to this fantastically refreshing stream.


Fantastic trail along the coast. But missing my bike!


Lagoinha Do Leste!

What Would Chuck Norris Do?


Some local wildlife.



An American football, not common in Brasil. A bit of good ole nastalgia...

The fresh water weaving it's way down to the ocean was almost the same temperature as the air. If you sat there long enough you only noticed the water line on your skin.

The boat ride back before the storm.

  1. Must say, you're really exceeding my expectations of how many posts you'd be able to do and I'm loving it! That singletrack looked luscious, love the shot of you sitting in the water, and the smiley face, and the boat. Keep it up!
