Porto Belo - with the sun out!

Last sunday the bar was finally working so we went all the way there, which took us about 8 seconds, for some garlic prawns and a beer or two. We met Edgar, the owner of the bar, called Balanco do Mar, along with his son Eric, and the reception couldn't be better. We sat there for about 5 hours drinking, eating and chatting away wiht them and some other great people that came along in their boats. It was a good sunday.
The plan was to leave Porto Belo this morning but the sun is finally shining and the weather window would only allow us to get a bit more south then we would have to stop and be stuck again waiting for another window. So stuck by stuck we decided we're better off here which we found out is actually a great place to be, now that the sun is shining ( for how long, nobody knows). It unbelievable how much better places look with the sun out!!!
So we'll wait for a 3 or 4 days weather window and we should go straight to Rio Grande, which is 370 NM from here.
Tonight, we're having Eric and Aline over for drinks :-)
