Morro de Sao Paulo

The evening sight of Morro de Sao Paulo
Sunset with friends met in Morro
Early morning sight of Morro beach

I took the night bus from Adjuda to Morro de Sao Paulo, when I alighted from the uncomfortable night bus in Valencia at about 4.10am I was shocked to see so many Israelites had alighted from 5 other nights buses, and for the first time I am feeling very uncomfortable and misplaced. I feel that they are a very closed community of people and it is very difficult to penetrate to them. But after some enquires, I finally got to share a cab withe 2 other passengers to the boat querries and then hop into the bunk boat filled with Israelite frest graduate army boys. I was rather feeling unrest and disturb by their behaviour. As early as 4.30 they are busying taking photos of each other and chatting away loudly.
But arriving at Morro de Sao Paulo, had erased all my thought of the unpleasant experience. I feel in love with the Island as much as I had for Arrial do Cabo. In Morro, there are about 6 beaches to visit and the beach here is so different from Cabo or any other beach I had been. It is like a swimming pool, you can walk for miles in the ocean and yet be at knee or shoulder level. The water is warm and clear, which is great.
In Morro, I met Jennifer (student from Sao Paulo) and Sara (a police CIA officer from Sao Paulo) and together with Opale, Jon and Christiana, we hang out almost everynight till dawn to watch the beautiful and spectacular sunrise. The colour of the early morning sunray was just so amazing and awesome. How beautiful is creation.
