Salvador: Day II


Today we went to a turtle sanctuary and we got to see some HUGE turtles! They had a mini sea world of Brasil, and we were able to check out a lot of turtles, some huge and some small. They had a “touching” section where you could touch some sting rays that were just swimming around (stings removed of course). They had a really hard body, but the flippers felt almost gooey. It was pretty cool. Then they had a shark tank with some nurse sharks. I love sharks so being able to get a good luck at some was way cool. It was strange seeing shark tanks with almost no protection to keep the kids out. I know that specific type of shark isn’t that dangerous but if hungry enough it wouldn’t matter, and any kid that wanted to could easily climb into their tank. It was strange, but apparently we just need restrictions in the states because we’re stupid enough to get in because kids here have brains enough to stay out.

We headed to the beach shortly after and Cindy and I went to a little section and fell asleep for a while. I guess I am getting pretty dark because I didn’t even burn. Being in Brasil, it makes me proud to be a bit darker! Haha. We had some good chicken at the beach and enjoyed being there a lot. It was so much fun and Cindy and I love being at the beach. Today rocked!
