This time I tried something new at Barra da Lagoa, I took surfing lessons and I became a fan of this sport as well!

Milho cozido or Corn or Choclo

At the beach there are these vendors that offer you grilled cheese, they walk around with a little container with carbon and they grill it just in front of you. It is delicious.
.
En la playa hay unos vendedores que ofrecen queso asado, caminan con un contenedor de brazas y asan el queso en frente tuyo. Es delicioso.



After the beach or after dinner, one of our favorite programs was to go to get ice cream at a real buffet where you can choose all you want in ice-cream and then top it with the most crazy stuff like gummy bears, melted chocolate, etc. It is selled by weight.
.
Luego de la playa o después de comer, uno de nuestros programas favoritos era ir a buscar helado a un verdadero buffet donde uno puede elegir todo el helado que quiera y luego ponerle las cosas más locas como gomitas, chocolate derretido, etc. En la caja lo pesan y uno paga por kilo.
