The Big Hike!

So earlier this past week Joana and I thought about going on a hike. Since we've been running a lot and most of the time it is uphill she thought Id love to see the view. Well she was right. We but on our bathing suits, some running shoes and drove about 20 minutes to the beach we go to on the weekends. Well the almost vertical mtn that I thought you couldnt go up has a trail. You walk up a small street in this cute neighborhood until you get to a small opening that you could easily miss. There are stone steps and a sign in Portuguese that says basicly: Please do not take what you shouldnt, please don leave anything that cant survive and enjoy the earth for what it is. Something like that. If was sweet. But after the stone steps is a vertical rock wall you have to press your body against to get up. I LOVED IT! Joana not so much. She made it to the first flat area then stopped to rest and tan. Me yah I had to to the most unsafe thing possible and crawl up to the top. But man the view was worth it. I could see all of Rio, Niteroi and the islands surrounding us in a 360 degree view. Below us I could watch the surfers play in the light blue splashing waves and the bodies frying on the golden white sand. It was amazingly beautiful. There was at one point three guys on the mtn but they just walked off the other side and I have no idea what happened to them...odd. But after I was done enjoying the wind and sun at the top I went back down to join Jo and get a little sun. Since we were alone the top had to come off because again I hate tan lines! HAHA. Joana didnt mind but she thought it would be fun to take pictures of my ass close up to make it look like a mtn with all the surrounding mtns. That and me alm ost naked, lol. She is too funny. She was trying to make one of the pictures look like a large catus was a penis, or how should I say it, making it look like I HAD a penis. She doesnt know but I already do. LOL. Why else would I wear the pants in my relationships? HAHAHA. Despite the tiny thong bikini I wont lie, its huge! HAHAHA. Ok ok enough with that. After tanning for a few hours, enjoying the quite and playing with the cutes little bug ever! Jo and I went back down and hit the sand. I got to play in the water for a few hours. Once Im in I never want to get out. I know to come in every so often so I dont just float on my back and drift off. *Yes it has happened before in Hawaii* I just love the water. It is nice here you can open your eyes and swim for days in the warm water. The waves are strong but you just have to hold your breath if you get sucked under and pray that you have the blessings of higher powers, lol. Not too bad of a day, the salt water is grat for the skin and really makes it soft like a micoscopic exfoliator in the water. Plus it dries the oil from your face so no break out here! WOOHOO! It was nice to wake up the next morning and be nothing but sexy sore which I enjoy entirly. Just had to share that story with you. Enjoy the pics!
