I picked up Paul, Adam, and Ben at the airport on Saturday (Feb 14th). We took a shuttle to the bus station and bought bus tickets to our first destination: Parati.Parati is a colonial beach town. In preping for their adventure, Ben and Adam read that it is customary for Brazilians to stand closer during conversations, and touch on the shoulder. They practiced this custom at one of the stops on the way to Parati.
We got to Parati at about 9-10pm on Saturday night, but the night was far from over. The receptionist told us about a jazz festival happening in the Town Square of the historical district. They flew in a New Orleans jazz group for the event. We drank Caipirinhas and had a lot of fun at the concert.
