Arriving at Paraty our first objective is to buy our tickets for Sao Paulo and go for the 9.40am on the 29th with Empresas Reunidas Paulista (R$40.36).

We walk through the town and find our Bed and Breakfast where we find our room has been overbooked. However we are put up in a new appartment and after unpacking we decide to head into town and soon find market stalls selling arts and crafts.

Paraty itself is a picturesque town with cobbled roads and colonial houses...and lots of stray dogs.

After a browse around the town we find (eventually) an Italian restaurant fairly priced and with a good range of food. However, the bug is spreading and Tor is not feeling so well so we headed back for an early night.
