a little bit of paradise in Paraty

Portuguese town of Paraty
From Sao Paolo we took a 6 hour bus ride up the coast to Paraty (pronounced par-a-chee), which is an old Portuguese town with quaint churches, cobblestone roads, and great restaurants. Paraty is the perfect historical old town, that has been well maintained, but not yet  completely over-run by annoying tourist traps and rather than the typical tourist souvenir shops, it seems there are many local artists selling their own creations.

Yesterday we spent the day on a boat touring around the many small islands off the coast of Paraty. The boat ride was great fun with live entertainment, food, and stops at a few of the 360 islands nearby to swim.
