so the popular thing that people do here is gliding
seems simple but it's going to be amazing the biggest acai we've ever had
this is a cool little beach town we haven't really explored it yet much but we're ready
to it's been extremely hot today and so we waited until the afternoon to leave so now it's already
three or four or something like that so we're gonna go out now get some food maybe see the beach
this is our first and only full day here so we better make the most of it
so we just entered the main walkway here and we saw it briefly last night and there were a ton
of people walking around right now not so much but we're starting to think that in the middle
of the day people are either at the beach or they're in so they're not really in this area
until later in the day yeah we've noticed a lot of things in brazil open later in the day
who knows why maybe they stay up later sleep in get some lunch too hot in the middle today
okay we're getting our typical acai as always but this time for the first time we've seen they
have pitaya here do you remember what pitaya is in english dragon fruit and it's a pink
dragon fruit we never normally see this available anywhere because it's a very expensive fruit and
we got this acai at a self-service place so they don't price it differently based on what you get
they just weigh it so we could have taken all the pizza high if we wanted we didn't
but it's pretty amazing that they offer that we love that fruit such a beautiful fruit
when we're in peru they call pitaya and usually you get the yellow one it has a yellow outside
with a white inside but here this is a pink one with a pink inside it has about the same flavor
but it looks completely different the fruit doesn't have a ton of flavor but it's very good
so the popular thing that people do here is gliding paragliding hang gliding i think it's
paragliding i don't know this is hang no we don't know it could be either one wow
wow people are coming back
alex should we do it
if it's not too expensive we think it's about 100 real per person which is 20 a person doesn't seem
too bad so we're on these cliffs overlooking the place there is a beach over this way
looks like most of the people are over there and then
we're looking over at a bunch of restaurants and cafes here that are like in the water
so we've been walking around on these red orange cliffs above the beaches down here
and we just saw it looks like a little canyon that we can maybe go down so we're going to
try walking down here see if we can get to the beach we have no idea where it leaves
i think it's good all right this leads all the way down to the beach
i would go in there but it looks like someone probably peed right there
cool so here at the bottom you have a little stilt restaurant
this little restaurant built on stilts above the water
you sink pretty far in with this sand
wow there are constant gliders above you all the time are they gonna run into that stick
whoa i like that better than stairs natural path
let's feel the water it looks colder here
good temperature
uh
we found these awesome red rocks and no one else is really around them
it looks like the water just tucked it the sand is flying up into my eyes even with sunglasses
so
when we go to beaches a lot of times there aren't rocks you can climb around
so we're taking our time enjoying the formation
never seen a beach quite like this before the colors here are beautiful
look at those oranges and those blues together there's nothing quite like that it's cloudy so
i think that helps bring out the orange there's a guy over here that seems to be doing flips
and stuff like he really knows what he's doing today but this is what it would have been like
wow
okay we are walking through the main street again in this town and it's going to be evening time
so the street food carts are opening up people are selling souvenirs there are a lot more people
walking around it has a really good energy it's not hectic it's just like a calm busy
bottle made out of a coconut it's a little monkey water bottle made out of a coconut okay now we're
gonna get some milk which is corn milo verde this little corn food truck we love trying the street
food here we're interested to see what the prices are gonna be compared to other areas we've been
in we've heard that the north can be cheaper but this is a very touristy area so we'll see
so you can get the corn in the leaf there
or you can get it cut up into a bowl which is what i'm gonna get
so next is the butter and the salt
seems simple but it's going to be amazing
delicious how much is it it's three rails so about 60 cents
that is quite a bit cheaper than what we paid in rio i think we paid almost double that for this
so they have these little chairs right next to the thing so you can eat your meal here
so tapioca like usual you can get chicken calabresa carne de soul
the prices are really good yeah i'll do a carnegie soul yeah i'll try that's really cool
so you can see all he has here is a circle of metal instead of a pan so it just
contains it in there tapioca just looks like like a powder
but when you put it on heat it like it coagulates it comes together to form like a tortilla
which is like a like
just got two tapiocas this is how they come they put them in a little bag like this see the what
looks like a tortilla everything in there it's hot this is gonna be really good let's go find
a place the thing we really like about tapiocas is they are gluten free which is great for alex
they have a chewy sort of consistency alex will try it and tell you all about
it all right here's the tapioca this is heavy
wow that is my second favorite tapioca i've had in brazil if you want a good tabioka and you're
in this city it's this place over here we just ordered another acai but this one's gonna be a
little different because we ordered the biggest acai we've ever had it's gonna be one liter is
that right one liter it's a seven dollar acai it's gonna be massive hopefully we can finish it all
we probably will this is i think probably our favorite town like tourist town that
we've been to because it has a really good aesthetic and vibe people seem really happy
everyone's having drinks and with their family and friends it's a good atmosphere
that's huge the waiter took a picture of this as he was delivering it to us probably because
he doesn't see this very often think we can eat all this no problem that is a good awesome idea
if you get something a fourth of this size in the united states you're paying like ten dollars
and here it's seven for the whole thing
meaning that would be about forty dollars back home four zero we could have had other fruit too
like kiwi or mango but we found that banana blends the most with acai otherwise the other fruits kind
of take over the flavor of the site you guys know us we consume a lot of acai is probably the
first time that we're wondering if we'll actually finish the entire thing
our teeth aren't looking good right now we've had a lot already
so much in there we can't even get close
we're surprised to even have this as an option on the menu we were laughing we're like this is
probably a portion size for an entire family and here we are ordering it for two people
they're probably taking vets all the staff wondering if these two gringos will actually
eat it and we didn't prepare because we already had three acais not that other place
you
