BRAZIL part II: Ihla Grande

After four days in Rio, we took a van about 2.5 hours south and boarded a ferry to Ilha Grande.

After about 45 minutes, we arrived at the island...

And what an island it is!  Gorgeous!  We stayed at Pousada Naturalia and I highly recommend it.  The owner and his staff are incredibly nice and helpful.

And our balcony was to-die-for!

Ok, I know you are getting tired of all the chatter, so let's roll with just pictures of the island and our adventures.

(The Aqueduct on the island was built in 1893 and is still in use today.  It is about 40 feet high and 450 feet long.)
