Brazil Part III: Paraty

Last but not least we made our way to Paraty.  Paraty is a preserved Portuguese colonial town, so there is a lot of culture, colorful architecture, and history.  It was such a great stop on our trip, and I would recommend everyone visiting Brazil try to make their way there.  It's a good time.

One of my favorite characteristics about the town were the colorful window and door frames.  

     

And one day we got a ton of rain...and I mean a TON (being from Seattle I know rain, and this was crazy).  The streets flooded, but fortunately it happens often so they have good drainage.

A major highlight of our visit to Paraty was taking a cooking class.  Yes, we are officially Portuguese cooks, and surprisingly the dishes turned out pretty well!

If you are going to Brazil, go to Paraty!
