We have a surfer in the family, who had to catch some more waves before he changes the surfboard with skiis!!
This time Anniken came along ALONE (no friends!!!).
Sondre was in Francisco's farm close to the Argentinian border, so we were really looking forward to spend some time with Anniken!
Saturday morning; pouring rain - not exactely what we wished for....
The waves were so enormous that it was not possible to surf in Rosa. We tried Ferrugem, which was dangerous as well.......
We went to Garopaba where the waves were smaller, so T-I could try out the board!
Anniken and I went shopping in the rain! We managed to buy some really nice memories from Brazil even though 80% of the stores had closed for the season!
Hahaha!!
He had an ear infection, so the doctor told him to stay away from water for a while! Very funny for an addicted surfer, so he filled his ear with silicon and got this fancy hat!
Anniken was SOOOO embarrassed!!
We enjoyed a lot to spend some time alone with our princess!
Garopaba is a tiny, small, charming fishing village.
We went to see Nina's cute house directly at the beach!
The surfer (and his family's) lunch!
We stayed a new place this time, in beautiful Pousada Morada dos Bougainvilles.
We were the only guests and were treated REALLY good!!
Fantastic restaurant at the pousada.
Homemade spaghetti with sea food :-)
Relaxing at the terracce!
Finally some few rayons of sun!!
I did run 6.3K Saturday and 7.7K on Sunday, but it was of no use because I ate like a horse the whole week-end!!!
Sunday at Rosa. Still automn weather, so we did not use our bikinis!
We LOVE Brazil!
Praia do Rosa is a nature reserve.
The surfer wanted to try Rosa on Sunday despite the enormous waves!
Optimistic man!
He did not know that half an hour later he would be smashed into the rocks in the background!
Praia do Rosa - our paradise!!!
We tried to count, and decided we have been here 8-10 times!
How we will miss it.......but a week in February next year is already planned :-)

The roads are not very good here and especially not when it rains. But that what's make its charm! Only surfers and nature lovers come here!
Like Anniken! She must love it a lot, since she chose to come alone with us :-)
It turned out Thor-Inge should have listened to the experienced locals. This is his board after an enormous wave took him and threw him onto the rocks!!!!
His body looked the same, with a million scratches and bruises :-(
Together with his ear infection he was a very depressed man and refused to accept that his carreer should end like this.
So his board is being repaired and we are preparing for yet another trip..............
5 hrs drive each way on horrible roads is a long way to go, but it's worth it when we come to ROSA!!!
Sondre came home from Francisco's farm and his body looked the same!! He had fallen off the horse, got kicked, played too much soccer without shoes, slept to little etc......
So my 2 men needed a lot of care the following days!! Silly father, silly son!
I am so happy that we found an antic furniture store where we ordered the chest (skjenk) we wished to bring back from here :-)) The price was less than half of the price in a fancy store in Porto Alegre!!
