The mostly uncrowded beach was amazing during our long weekend away from the chaotic Sao Paulo! We accidentally rented a compact car with manual transmission (most have this) and no A/C! Silly gringo. Also the traffic leaving the city was a disaster but after that it wan an enjoyable road trip. Until we had to come back in to the city, that is. There is a reason the rich use helicopters! #blue
