This is the famous Plateau Mountain, finally! Near Bishop's Hat, the Plateau is a large slab of granite situated 1945 meters above sea level, belonging to the Mantiqueira range. It can be seen the Paraíba Valley and several towns. It is one of the dozens of things you can not miss in Monte Verde -MG. Here begins the trail that leads to the imposing Sealed Peak, which stands in the distance. But the hike requires some fitness and is recommended to follow a local guide.
After almost 1 hour of a hard steep hike we thought it was here, the famous Plateau in Monte Verde......

Here's your soundtrack. Okay, maybe they're not exactly brazillian but their music is awesome and their live shows legendary.
Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.
Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.
Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.
Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.
Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.
This picture of mask diving at the Taipus reefs makes me shed hot and salty tears all over my calendar, which is set on "January" right now.
