Very excited! The northernmost part of Brazil is closer to Canada than it is to the southernmost part of Brazil. I read it in a tweet. It must be true. https://twitter.com/amazingmap/status/1295711191373930501?s=19 Quote

When I say I don't follow the news or almost any current events, I'm dead serious... I just Googled Brazil and didn't know if was the #2 Covid country. Cases are no falling and I have 2 weeks to wait before I go, so I'll be good ? 1 Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted September 7, 2020 Report Posted September 7, 2020 Labour Day Monday is definately awesome. It is the one bonus day of the whole year when I can be just like Feddie and be "Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon", but on a Monday ... Quote

Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 12, 2020 Report Posted September 12, 2020 Was gonna fly to Cairo next month but it would have taken 3 days of travel and really wasn't cheap, so I nixed it and booked 9 days in Puerto Rico, dirt cheap airfare and car rental... There's a cool rainforest down there I wanna check out 😂😂 1 Quote
ubkev Posted September 19, 2020 Report Posted September 19, 2020 Got pulled over doing just a shade under 100 in a 55 at 2am. The cop looks in the car, sees my jacket hanging neatly in the back seat, my shirt and tie are in place. My lunch is on the passenger seat and my tea is steaming in the cup holder. He couldn't fling my licence back at me fast enough. He was at my window for less than 15 seconds. Off to catch a drunk leaving the bar. And I made it to work on time! Don't speed, kids. Quote

I think he probably clocked me as I was just slowing down to exit. But I was definitely still over 80. I'm just positive that he was looking to bag a drunk at closing time and didn't want to waste his time with a plain old speeding ticket. Quote
Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Posted September 20, 2020 Salvador Brazil, it's absolutley stunning, the people in this country are the friendliest I have met in a looooonggg time! Also, had a long layover at JFK on the way in, took the train to Manhattan for a bit, look at Times Square.... Dead. I've never seen NYC like this in my entire existence. 3 Quote
Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I've been loving Rio, such a unique and beautiful city!! Staying on the 20th floor overlooking Lagoa in between Ipanema and Cococabana. Went to Sugarloaf mountain and fed the Marmosets without other tourists in sight. I've eaten so much Brazilian Churrascaria I may explode! I wouldn't hesitate to come back to Brazil again, especially with how strong the dollar is compared to the Reias.

Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 24, 2020 Report Posted September 24, 2020 Hit Igazu falls today... AMAZING!!!! took a raft down under some of the falls, words simply can't describe the several layers of flowing cascade. Most amazing falls I've ever seen. 20200924_125603.mp4 2 Quote
steveoath Posted September 25, 2020 Report Posted September 25, 2020 Not sure this should be following a @Wyldnwoody44 travel post, but I recently discovered these beauties. The heartbeat sauces (from Thunder Bay) are majestic. Hot and flavorful. The Secret Aardvark is a nice tomatoey hot sauce. Love them. 1 Quote

I love hot sauces, and anything can follow my posts 🙂 I found an awesome Brazilian hot sauce down here, the owner of the apartment gave me a bottle as a gift but stupid airport security kept me from bringing it because it was something like 5ml over. I only packed my Kelty so no checked bags. 1 Quote
Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 26, 2020 Report Posted September 26, 2020 Today was great, I met my friends in Sao Paolo after taking a helicopter over Igazu falls in the morning. They are amazing guys, been married for some time and I met them in Peru a few years ago. Erich even proposed to me in public 😂😂😂. Had some traditional food here and it was splendid. Heading home soon, but I would urge anyone who was on the fence about Brazil to visit, an amazing culture! Quote
