It's been a long time...

sunny 31 °C

It's been so long we can't really remember what's been going on (the drink helps with that aswell), so what we're going to do is post some pictures and describe them with amusing comments.

So to start off with, after Rio we went over to Buzios (an old surf town 2 hours east of Rio), it was sweet like tropicana. Here's a lickle pic to whet your whistle. Us with some cool chicks from the hostel (you know who you are Rocia and Belen!)

Had some fun nights out in Buzios despite the prices and the short time we were there.
This here is a splendid shot of us with a friendly little palm tree.

Here is another splendid shot of us with a couple of chicks with dicks. Alex went in for the kill with this one.

Went to a funky lil club called Privilege. 60 reals to get in (well expensive for here), hot chicks and crazy dance music. Mark and Paul got into the spirit of things as you can see.
As the night progressed Paul, fueled on caipirinhas and beer, decided to go for a little wander back to the pousada (2 reals on a bus back) which ended up turning into an expedition in itself. 3 hours later and R$70 out of pocket, he wasn't even back home yet. Found the closest beach and went for a beautiful walk and took some lovely shots of the sunrise (maybe it was worth it in the end?).

4 days later we left Buzios and travelled over to Angra dos Reis to get the boat over to Ilha Grande. A paradise island off the coast inbetween Rio and Sao Paulo. It was so beautiful that we got Japanese style snap happy. Check yoself befo you wreck yoself...peace

This last shot is the main town that we were staying in.There's no cars on the island so you either have to get a boat around the island or walk through the jungle.

Old captain Mark with his crew Sieman stains and Roger the cabin boy went on a mystical voyage to the cave of mysticism. Then to another couple of lagoons afterwards for a bit of snorkelling for the lads.

(We think) We've got some awesome shots of the cave and snorkelling, but they're on an underwater camera that still needs to be developed so stay tuned for them.

On the other side of the island is a perfect beach, one of the best we've ever been to. One day we went for a 2 hour trek through the jungle to get there. We managed to cut it down to 1 1/2 hours with some extreme trail runing. The water is perfectly clear like a swimming pool and the sand is so clean that it squeeks underfoot like snow. It's also a good surfing beach so we could get our surf on.

Alex was pro! look at him here catching some radical waves, the boy has skills, paddeling skills, laying on the board skills, chicks dig guys with skills!!:

So after a hard day on the waves alex decided that he would continue his exercise program with a bit of capoiera on the pier with some random locals.

The nightlife on Ilha Grande was limited, but we managed to find the party, or it managed to find us morelike!

The one club on the island is called Blue Banana and it's actually better than it sounds (no it's not a gay club).
We ended up extending our stay from 7 days to 10 because we enjoyed it so much.

Paul is also gaining some skills out on this expedition, look at him sleazin every hot chick up on de island ;)

After all the fun in de sun at Ilha Grande we packed our bags and set off for Sao Paulo (the largest city in South America). We hear mixed reviews about it, mostly that it was very dangerous! This did not phase the Farnham massive tho, we just did a few extra push ups to insure the guns were still locked n loaded and ready to go.ยด
Sao Paulo was massive but we soon found that there was very little to do during the day, we ended up going to some snake farm which would have been crap even if it was a school trip. But hay here is one lame pic of the snake on this trip!

A bit of culture for the page

The best thing about Sao Paulo was the night life, so we felt the need to dominate that shit!

Kieran (aka The Rug) was dancing with this favela chick, as a true gentleman dropped here back in the hood. ( he got kinda scared)

We are currently in Florianopolis (Alex had to spell that for me!) which is cool! it is a surf town with quality beaches and so many hot birds. We havent taken any pics at the moment but we are slowly working on that. its hard because we are such pro surfers now we cant carry a camera all the time. WE LOVE THE WATER. If there are any requests for pictures post them in a comment and we will see what we can do (no task is to taxing for the chaos crew, best suggestion wins a secret picture prize. so post your email with the comment)
Since we are suppling the female audience with near pornographic pictures of us, here are a few zappers ( our new code word for anything good) for the lads. ENJOY
