Natal and Fortaleza

Hello! At monday me and Diêgo planned to go to the sand dunes a bit outside of Natal, we wanted to walk across the long bridge, but it seem to be dangerous cause who would help us out there if "mister bad guy on bike" would come and meet us? We took one bus over, and later we had to take another bus to the sand dunes.
At the sand dunes you could be in a buggy and drive around in the dunes, or ride at a dromedar. Me and Diêgo choosed to walk. It was like being in a desert, exept the sand dunes were wet after a rain. Later we took a long walk at the beach before we headed back to the bus-stop. The buses of Natal is horrible, it didnt stop anywhere we thought it would. At the way an old woman from the state of Paraná was talking to us. Well, we left the bus close to a shopping were we ate dinner, after being in the shopping we took a bus back to the beach were we walked the last way back to our hotel. Next morning was rainy, alot of water had come inside our room. We decided to leave Natal, but it was easier said than done, cause the rain had made it difficult for busses to go in the city. Finally we came to the Rodoviária station and bought our tickets to Fortaleza.
The trip from Natal to Fortaleza took 8 hours so we arrived at eleven at night. We took a taxi to a cheap pousada, 45 reais for one night. The room was not a sweet place exactly and the door was impossible to lock from inside, so we put the bed infront of it so no one could open it. Next morning we left the room and went to a cathedral not far from the pousada. Later we took a bus to the beach. The skyscrapers of Fortaleza is really bautiful, and the standard of the city is really high and developed, but this prosperity is built on horny sex tourists and pedophilies to come to Fortaleza to buy sex from childrens. Thats what Diêgo told me and according to all propaganda against this you see here is a proof it is true. Diêgo dont like Fortaleza nor the state of Ceará, they sacfrifice their on children to make money. When you think about this, then the beauty of Fortaleza is more discusting.
After a long search for a place to sleep we found a cosy pousada for 60 reais, Pousada Igara. At the evenging we ate rodizio with pasta and pizza in a restaurant not far from were we live.
Yesterday we went to the fameous Beach Park. The way there was a living hell, totally 3 busses is needed to go there if you dont want to pay a travel agency with 2 reais per person to go there, we took the busses.
Well, Beach Park was really expencive, but it was worth it cause we had a really fun time there. Alot of crazy water attractions were there and a river to swim around in through the park. We left Beach Park at the evening, no busses went to Fortaleza now so we had to take a car with alot of people inside to go into the city. The seat I was on was almost destroyed. We took a bus later to a shopping center were we ate. We looked for a map over Brazil, we plan to continue our trip to Suriname. We wanted to go to French Guyane, but Diêgo need visa to go there. Maybe I need visa to Suriname, in that case we maybe have to go to Guiana were no one of us need visa.
Today is our last day in Fortaleza to night we take a bus to São Luis in the state of Maranhão. See you again, bye!
