Danes, Danes, Danes.........








So after a fantastic month, our time in Jeri had to come to an end. We´re now spending the day in Fortaleza on route to Buenos Aires and walking through the bustling market centre was a bit of a shock after the quietness of Jeri. Back in Jeri we´d noticed a few games of football happening on the beach and concluded that it was therefore a `busy day´. Obviously our boundaries of lots of people and not a lot of people have changed somewhat.
We had the pleasure of meeting a great gang of people from Denmark a couple of nights ago whilst having a few drinks and so with our neighbours also being Danes, the theme of meeting new people so far has definitely been Denmark. It was a shame that we couldn´t spend more time with our new found friends but we had to move on. I´m sure we´ll meet again though, a lack of contacts of people to stay with in Denmark will definitely not be an excuse.

Had a great last day on the water too and a few drinks watching the sun go down followed by pizza in town just before our bus made for a great farewell to Jeri.
The first part of the bus ride to Fortaleza felt like a proper adventure. Driving along the beaches and dunes in a back of a converted lorry in complete darkness. At times it sounded like the driver just would not stop accelerating. We changed buses to a road coach and made it to Fortaleza just as dawn was breaking.

So that´s it for now. We have a day here then catching no less than 4 different flights to make our way down to Buenos Aires. What carbon footprint?

Will post next from Argentina. STEAK AND CHIPS AND WINE PLEASE!
