Juliana came back from
the Surfing Competition and took me on a nice 4 hour hike
from Pântano do Sul to Lagoinha do Leste then to Praia Matadeiro
and then we walked all the way back home.
It was a steep hike, My old creaky knees made sure that I knew the grampification
has begun.
Trilha dos Anões
Trilha dos Gnomos
Morro do Cucuruto - Elevation 334 meters (~1000 feet)
Looking east from Armação beach towards Ilha do Campeche

Pântano do Sul, Saquinho, Saco da Baleia, Saco do Caldeirao
Looking west toward Ponta do Frade, Naufragados and onto Santa Catarina
mainland.
The little island is Ilha da Fortaleza ou Araçatuba
Juliana bouldering on the granite.
Pântano do Sul
Ilha Moleques do Sul (Boys of the South Island)
Pântano do Sul Beach
Interesting flowers everywhere
Ilha dos Papagaios Pequena and Ilha do Papagaios Grande

Ilha Irmã do Meio (Middle Sister Island) and Ilha Irmã
Pequena (Little Sister Island)
Ilha Irma de Fora (Outside Sister Island)
We don't have plants with this type of veination in the US.
Juliana told me she broke her arm climbing on this pointy protrusion.
It looks like the mountain is giving the wind and sea the "bird",
for all the errosion they have caused.
New seeds ready for the birds to take to new places.
Ponta da Felicidade
Ponta da Felicidade
The water was fiercely bashing into the rocks.
Ponta da Felicidade
I felt like I was in The Land of the Lost.
After dark, if you touch this plant, the leaves fold up.
Granite faces that have withstood the ages.
This lichen had fernlike hairs growing all over it.
Behind is Ilha Irmã de Fora (Outside Sister Island)
One of the Tres Irmães (Three Sisters)
Doot-di-doot-di-do, Billy Bugsworth taking his daily stroll over the
plants.
Juliana bouldering around.
It says "GNOSIS", which is old english for "wisdom"
or "knowlege".
It's also a ancient secret religion which is based on alchemy, astrology,
numerology, symbolism etc.
It was kind of profound to see this written here.
Gnostics are people who believe in a type of spiritual science, that
relies on earthly knowlege.
Agnostics are people who don't know what to believe, so they follow
no one.
Most Agnostics don't even know what "Agnostic" really means.
Not quite as deep as the other message, "XUPE ROLA", which
means "SUCK DICK".
Looking east toward over the Atlantic Ocean towards Ilha Moleques do
Sul in the far distance.
Brazilian Stonehenge
Mr. Aranha waiting for his dinner guests to arrive.
Lagoinha do Leste - Ponta da Lagoinha
Not yet Mr. Urubu, no one's dying here today.
The vultures were always keeping an eye on us.
Lagoinha do Leste (Little Lake of the East)
Lagoinha do Leste
The lake on the right is the "Little Lake", where this place
gets its name.
My knees were shot, this was a good place to take a break.
This diving board shook when you moved on it. Don't worry, it's only
a 500 foot drop below.
Praia da Lagoinha do Leste

Violent water crashing into the ancient rocks.

Almost to Matadeiro (Slaughterhouse), I didn't take any pictures because
the light was almost gone.
