Friday night was eventful. My flatmate woke me at 3 in the morning having returned from a club to find a cockroach in her room. Let's just say I was not happy, it was nothing I could help with; she said she woke me for "moral support"! Eventually she called the porteiro and begged him to come up to kill the cockroach, he must have thought we were such wimps!
Anyway, the next morning the cockroach incident was all forgotten and we headed to Paula's parents beach apartment, in a resort called Riviera de São Lourenço. On the weekend the whole of São Paulo seem to leave the city and head for the beach. The traffic is AWFUL, a journey that was meant to take 1hr30 ended up taking nearly 4!
However, when we arrived at the apartment, the stress of the journey immediately disappeared. It was in an amazing location, after just a 2 minute walk from the apartment we arrived here!
After a few hours of relaxation, or in my case pacing up and down the beach, why do I find it so difficult to sit still and do nothing?!, We headed back to the apartment and drove to Pão de Açúcar to buy provisions for the all-important churrasco.

Bye beach...until next weekend!
Sunday was a very chilled day spent alternating between swimming in the sea, going for walks and browsing the beach barracas! Paradise...

After another huge meal we headed back to São Paulo and got caught in another traffic jam...
