We woke up at around 9.30am and quickly headed down to catch breakfast. We had some toast, fruit and cake and then did some research on what are next plans would be. The were no buses to Paraty so we would have to go straight to Rio. We also found that it was cheaper to go to Salvador after new years so we booked that flight. We also looked into beaches and Amazon trips but the options were endless. We decided to play the rest as it came. We then went up to th...

I woke up in the morning at 10am just as breakfast would be ending. Shivani was hungry so we went down to grab something. I relaxed in the room and sent a couple of chirstmas messages.

We booked it for the afternoon and just chilled watching movies in the room while we waited...

This was our first fancy hotel and you could notice the difference, although it did feel a bit sterile as it was full of business people. On checking in we were informed we had to pay an early check in fee. We weren't too happy but after some haggling got the fee reduced. We then went to our room dumped ou...
