Back from Campos do Jordao

Enjoying the remainder of the night.

Remember to click on pics to see larger size.

Heading back to the hotel, but first, why not a quick break in the middle of rush hour traffic.

Balcony off our room in Campos.

This was at Midnight. I think we were the only 3 people up at this hour. Not a sole awake in town.

Sitting on the edge of a very steep mountain. 3 more steps and there would be no where to go but straight down.

I have seen pics like this but have never been able to capture one until now with the background so blue.

Jamie, Alexis, and I on a Jeep tour with a background of three different States in Brazil, Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and the 3rd I forgot the name .

Just a beautiful home. I guess the guy who owns it is from Fort Lauderdale.

This is in the middle of the day, not too busy to stand in the middle of the road.

Is this the ugliest manacin you ever seen. Where did they buy this guy from and put a female wig on it? Yuk!!!

Base of the single chairlift we were going to take to the top of the mountain, but only open on Friday's this time of year. The busy season is June and July. This place caters to the richest of Sao Paulo and Rio.

Relaxing in the middle of town.

Center of town, it is suppose to take after a Swiss Village. Lots of Fondue restaurants and great food. This picture is of a local bar that brews their own brew called Baden & Baden.

We are now back from Campos do Jordao, what a neat little town in the mountains. Would be great just to take a week off and stay there. Adding some pics here for you to see.

Campos do Jordao, Brasil

It's Sunday, another 3 show day, fun fun. We have two days off and what to do. Well a few of us have decided to skip going to the beach where most others are going because we found this neat little town in the mountains about 3 hours from Sao Paulo called Campos do Jordao. It is a small town with a Swiss theme. It looks like a relaxing place with things to do such as, hiking, biking, small tours, good restaurants, (Fondue) and best of all, watching the electronic thermostat at night. I know sounds exited, and you all should be jealous. Of course I will post pics of the wonderful outing when I come back. The plan is to stay 1 night, if it is good we will stay for 2 nights. I am actually looking forward to it because it is a touristy place during part of the year but not this time of the year. Cost $15US to get there, $13 to get back and well, we are not sure where we are staying, possibly a hostel or a chalet depending on the amount of people going. The Chalet is $120US per night but holds eight people so $15 per night which is comprable to what the hostel cost at $12 for private room and $15 for private room with TV. Stay tuned...
