Buzios (OK we got behind a bit)

Buzios is beautiful. The city is crawling with Argentinians so the people are beautiful too. We pertty much did the same thing everyday so I'll summarize:
- wake up at 10:45
- fantastic breakfast at Villa Bambuti
- took our rental beach buggie to one of the 20 beautiful beaches in Buzios
- drank beer at the beach with Dave and Josh (dudes we met in Rio from NYC). I swear Brazil does not have a single beach without some little shack selling beer, corn on the cob, cashews, grilled shrimp, sunglasses, swim suits, sunscreen, etc. You can stay all day and get whatever you need right there.
- home for a quick nap and shower
- out to dinner and shopping, the stores all stayed open after midnight because all the Argentinians don't eat dinner till then anyway
- more beer
- bed

A note on our hotel..... We stayed here, http://www.bambuti.com/bambuti/english/place.htm
Villa Bambuti rocked the world. The owners Debbie and Luis are phenominal. We had fantastic views, a great room for a really reasonable rate, a giant German Shepard guard god named Zulu, we felt like we were at a friend's house. I got a 24 hour flu bug and was sooo sick for one of the days. Debbie had toast, bananas, and cold water sent to my room. It made me feel so happy to be taken care of. It was just the coolest ever.
