Lencois Maranhenses, Brazil

Sometimes..

Even if there's a will.. 

There is no way! ;)

Lencois Maranheses in Brazil..

Was my wish fulfilled..

Just.. almost.. completely.

You see..

It wasn't easy to get to and through..

These beautiful white sand dunes that looked like a desert.

(But not a desert.. because it rains)

The ride was really bumpy..

The climbs were steep and hard..

It was very hot.. there was no shade at all..

And I was carrying my baby with me..

In my tummy! :)

So when my husband and friends were going down to the pools for a swim..

Pregnant me could only watch them from above because I would not be able to climb back up! :)

And when they were going up that very, very steep slope..

To see the grandeur of the Lencois Maranhenses at sunset..

I could only stay and rest in the hotel!

"Hun, what were you thinking while watching the sunset?"

"Nothing, I was just posing for the camera."

"You were not thinking of me?"

"Oh ya, of course, you, too!"

"Yeah right!"  :))

But I really wanted to see the white sand dunes and water pools from above too..

So we took a flight instead..

So that I could also see the spectacle of..

And experience the Lencois Maranhenses..

At least almost.. completely :)
