Porto Alegre ... From The Water

Back into Porto Alegre to meet up with Augusto and Michellé with our flash new charger....thanks guys for your premo effort in helping us, time to meet up again with Francisco again (met him in Florianolopis on the Big Trails ride) and also Dioni and Luana.

Saturday we had organized to meet Rafael, a fell KTM rider too, we contacted him and he said well lets see the city from the lake….good enough I reckon.

Meeting him at his shop we left Maya there and headed out to the boat ramp and store.(Insert picture of grubby KTM in special lighting shop here)

Arriving at the boat store it was clear our view of what we thought we had got ourselves into was not quite what we had thought ... actually not even close

We thought some kayaks or something or maybe a small boat, instead we were greeted by the HMS Rafael ...

We parked up with a couple of other boats for a swim

These poor girls spent all the money on the boat and couldn't afford much clothing

Thanks for an epic day out Rafael, see you in Kiwiland mate
