THIS SPOT WAS REALLY GOOD. A VERY BEAUTIFUL PLACE WITH NOT MUCH PEOPLE AND DEVELOPMENT. THERE IS ONE OF THE BETTER POINTS AT THE HEAD LAND AND THE BEACH BREAK PACKS A PUNCH! BRASIL HAS MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF WAVES FROM BEACH BREAKS TO POINTS. THAT EXPLAINS WHY THE BRASILIANS ARE SUCH GREAT SURFERS. ALOHA

THIS IS A SHOT OF MORE OF THE FRIENDS WE MADE IN BRASIL. THE BROTHERS FROM SAO PAULO. GREAT GUYS!

ON THE WAY TO BRASIL WE HAD A LAY OVER IN CALIFORNIA. THIS IS AN AMAZING ARTIST THAT WE MET ALONG THE WAY. HE WAS SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO ME! HE HAS CEREBRAL PALSY AND HIS MOVEMENTS ARE LIMITED. HE HAS A TALENT THAT GOD GAVE HIM AND HE USES IT TO HIS BEST. HE CAN’T PAINT WITH HIS HANDS SO HE USES HIS NOSE TO PAINT! HIS ART WAS AMAZING AND WHAT AN INSPIRATION! WE SHOULD NOT BE COMPLAINING ABOUT THINGS! IT REMINDS ME TO BE THANKFUL WITH CARDS THAT WE ARE GIVEN AND TO MAKE THE BEST OF IT! HAVE A GREAT DAY!

HERE WE ARE READY TO GET MY FIRST SURF IN BRASIL. TALES WAS NICE ENOUGH TO LET ME BORROW HIS FULL SUIT. THE WATER WAS COLD FOR HAWAIIAN BLOOD! I EVEN SAW SOME DEAD PENGUINS ON THE BEACH! THE WAVES WERE FUN AND TALES WAS A WONDERFUL HOST. I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT BRASIL AND MET MANY NICE PEOPLE! THANK YOU TALES!

I THOUGHT THIS WAS COOL! HERE ARE SOME REALLY HIGH SAND DUNES IN BRASIL. THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE ALL AROUND SAND BOARDING. IT LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF FUN! THE ONLY THING IS THERE WERE NO LIFTS AND WHEN THEY EAT IT THEY PROBABLY HAVE SAND IN EVERY ORIFICE OF THE BODY. IT MUST BE NICE TO SAND BOARD WITH OUT ALL THE GEAR LIKE SNOWBOARDING. IT’S NICE TO TRAVEL AND SEE DIFFERENT THINGS IN OUR WONDERFUL WORLD.

HELLO
SORRY I HAVEN’T UPDATED IN A WHILE! IT’S BEEN A WHRIL WIND YEAR! THIS IS WHEN WE ARRIVED IN FLORIANOPOLIS, OUR GENEROUS HOST TALES PICKED US UP AND TOOK US STRAIGHT TO THE MACHINE TO VISIT TANIO AND JOHNNY. GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS AND THEY REALLY HELPED ME A LOT WHEN I WAS IN BRASIL. OBRIGADO (THANK YOU) GUYS!
