sometimes it's fun to go places where you haven't done research beforehand so you can
just enjoy it for what it is there are some beautiful old buildings to look at
you can see the rest of the city the skyline we're going to go there beautiful drink this is a capo
okay we just got to the recipe airport hey guys we are in the city still and we're leaving tonight on
a flight to go somewhere else in brazil so we're just going to explore the city a little bit more
before we go we got lucky because our airbnb hosts let us store our luggage here for the day
while we go explore before we have to check out and go to our night flight so here we go
we're saying goodbye to an airbnb that we really really liked very clean had everything we needed
we're sad that we're leaving it was very homey and because we had car life for so long
we accumulated more than we could fit in our bags we tried to fit as much as we could but we're
having to say goodbye to a few miscellaneous items some clothes book shampoo conditioner sunscreen
hats socks hopefully someone can put this stuff to good use we bought too much
bye-bye all right we just dropped off our luggage at the concierge here he's going
to keep our stuff safe for about three hours while we go explore we are going to an area
of festive that we pretty much know nothing about we didn't have a lot of time here so we
are taking suggestions from our subscribers and this is where you told us to go and it'll truly
be our first impressions of the place because we know nothing about it so we're taking an uber to
jesus and it's supposed to be vibrant colorful there's a main square maybe colonial old town
so it should be pretty cool yeah looking forward to it sometimes
it's fun to go places where you haven't done research beforehand
so you can just enjoy it for what it is and kind of form your own opinions on it
we got lucky we got an uber with air conditioning that does not happen very often here
okay we just made it down here and we don't know what to do
it looks like there are some beautiful old buildings to look at there are people down
here so there must be something to do but we're just gonna walk around and see what we find
so judging by the sign here this is espacio rua so it's a street of street art pretty cool it's
just a big mural it looks like they probably have different artists or at least there are different
sections here maybe 10 different ones yeah you can tell that this is a city
that really specializes in art and values that okay there are a bunch of stands here for coco
we'll come back for another one how is it it's a good one
so it looks like there is a big plaza here next to the water
so we're gonna cross the street and check this out this is where a majority of the people are
don't know what they're doing just hanging out in this good spot with a view of the water
looks like they might be taking a picture with the jessife sign we've seen these signs all over
brazil and everyone's always trying to get a photo in front of the words of the city that they're in
so what is this
so as you can see portuguese is hard this looks like recipe to us but i think it's aci
let me know if i'm saying that wrong you might know we drink these coconuts all the time but
one thing we didn't do until maybe a week ago we finally tried it where after you drink it you can
get it smashed open cut open so you can eat the inside of the coconut sometimes we walk away and
finish them and there's no one there to cut it so i kind of scrape this flesh from the inside and
this is what you can eat so now after we drink these coconuts you'll always see lindsay just
trying to stick her hands in like a monkey trying to get it out as we're walking around it's kind of
weird alex makes fun of me all the time look at this big white bird i think it's a crane
so this here is the waterfront from this area you can see the rest of the city
the skyline over there
lindsay the coconut
oops straight popcorn chips they're slushies wow that's cool
he's actually cutting the ice or shaving the ice with a knife right now so the name of this
beautiful place is practica zero people love it here they're eating hanging out taking pictures
right by the waterfront pretty cool place that's the cool thing about it is you're right by the
water it has a very open feel with all these old historic buildings that are colorful i like it
so this man has a piece of meat connected to his net he throws
it in the water and i don't know what he's fishing for maybe crab
probably it has a circular net with just a big piece of chicken on top we're gonna go there
we figured out what we want to do we want to take in this view from a rooftop bar we
get a little anxious about flying so we'll just have a drink relax all right let's go up there
we're gonna let you guys in on a little secret alex is scared of flying
as many flights as i've been on around the world it still makes me uneasy to get on flights it's
just hard to get past knowing that you're in a big tube flying across the sky with hundreds of people
in it yeah so i still don't like flying i've been on hundreds of flights i don't know how many
around the world my whole life but i still really don't like it it's hard to get over we know that
we know that statistically it is a lot safer than driving in a car even but it just seems a little
unnatural so we just got these pretty bracelets and they scanned them we don't know why yeah
maybe you gotta probably track how much you spend because they said that there's no cover charge
we're hoping to sit outside but it costs ten dollars to sit outside so i think we'll just
get our drink in here and they said we can go out there to enjoy the view take pictures if we
want we're looking at the drink menu um this seems like a very high-end more expensive place but the
drinks aren't even that expensive it looks like they're around four to five dollars for a cocktail
a place like this in the us would probably charge you fifteen to twenty dollars a drink
beautiful drink what is this foam
is it like a chantelle it's like a whipped cream with cinnamon
let's try this
oh okay that's good alex better try this so he can describe it for you guys because i'm horrible
let's see what this one is we got to make sure
so here's our other one completely different kinds of drinks what is that like a parsley in there
you're going to like that wow this one is very sweet that's like a that's like a like a juice
that one tastes more like a mango i figured out this one tastes like ginger and orange
we're gonna fight over this they're both extremely good
and it comes with some canela and some kind of berry it looks like our peppercorns i don't know
on top there with a froth that looks like a chantely or like a beer froth but it's not
we haven't had drinks this good since we went to the rooftop bar in sao paulo
i guess we like rooftop bar drinks you guys should watch that video
if you haven't seen it we just ordered some chicken and they just arrived
wow
beautiful and then for good measure we got another drink to share
this is a kaikoroska pepperina is brazil's national drink this is a kaiperoska
and we made it kiwi kiwi is one of my favorites um
let's try this this is the bolina chicken ballina it has a mango chutney on it crispy on the outside
oh yeah the shreds of chicken okay these were eight dollars you got six of them
the drinks were pretty reasonable i'm a fan of this place there's the mango chutney on top
it just looks like shreds of mango really
i believe chutney is from india chutney basically means like a side like a side sauce or something
definitely has like an indian flair
all right guys this is an amazing dinner and drinks especially now we have to go to the
airport and we're going to portaleza we're standing this is a beautiful view up here
the vibe is so fun there's live music people are happy but brazil
is always fun and happy so hopefully fortunately will be the same so let's go
okay we just got to the recife airport and we're going to document this whole thing for you and
show you what it's like flying right now in brazil again night flights have a totally
different energy it's much more subdued and calm i kind of like it it's a good change there aren't
a ton of people here a lot of things are closed in here so it's kind of a different
airport experience right now we can't even really tell where departures is once again we're lost
we're waiting in line it's been quite a while actually so it's a good thing we got here early
we like this airline goal because we get one free checked bag they don't charge
you at all so that's pretty nice he said that we can take it with us or check it so
mine's getting pretty thick now i think i'll check it and we'll check lindsey's
so it'll be easier as we go through there less to worry about by checking it
out so we just found this little domino's food truck here at the airport we haven't
had dominoes for a long time they were all over the us but we haven't seen them here
yet so we're gonna get one of these and the price is actually not bad at all it's like four dollars
so it's like four dollars for a mini pizza airports are usually expensive if you get a small
mini pizza dominoes in an airport back at home it would probably be ten dollars for this little
one it comes with a drink apparently too so that's a good deal look at this cute little pizza
size of my face
and it comes with water four dollars four dollars almost done with our pizza and then we're guessing
our flight is probably an hour long probably less it's not that far we love short pipes
we love pizza without sharp plates
thank you you spoke english that was nice all right we're boarding the plane we're
both pretty tired it's been a long day and it's late but we're excited to get there
all right we're overpaying for a taxi because uber isn't available for some weird reason
uber isn't really working at this airport it's saying there's no drivers available
it'll try to charge us and then his card is saying it's fraudulent so we had to overpay for a taxi
we're paying eight dollars to go 15 minutes we had no other choice
so as you guys know we post on youtube as much as we can
but we also have little video clips and photos that we can't post on youtube and alexander travel
