Tire murcho: Emotions to the surface with dunes Tanajura. The dunes of Jericoacoara treacherous stretches to keep those who do not know. As much as we rely on the strength of Tanajura, take a scare that could jeopardize the rest of the project. Lesson for the remainder of the journey.

Jericoacoara (EC) - Exploring the Route of Emotions, literally

A few hours after we left the road Teresina-PI, and finally came to the Jijoca Jericoacoara-CE. We were very excited about the new destination, since this would be our first encounter with the sea after almost a month of travel. Jeri represents our entry on the famous Route of Emotions, circuit filled with breathtaking views, which are also part of the Delta of, Piauí and Maranhenses, Maranhão.

It was late afternoon and several guides were still awaiting the tourists who arrived at the entrance of Jijoca. Moreover, do not be surprised if they said that all the inhabitants of cities tourist access a little more remote are born with a certified guide in hand. What is not lacking in our first few minutes were in the city offers to guide us to the entrance of Jeri amid the dunes. Although we prefer to try on their own at first, one of the guides followed the motorcycle, as if he knew that at some point we would not know what to do and we would have to hire your service. And so it was. When the path options began to multiply, decided to negotiate a price with him, and closed $ 30 to take us to the city. It was a good deal, once the various junctions along the dunes give us a good job to get where we wanted.

After the entrance of the town, local guards said they can not use the car in Jericoacoara. There is a parking lot where vehicles are stored, while a van is available to take visitors to their hostels. Normally, also allow you to enter by car for up to an hour to unload bags or to find a hostel, if there is not booked one in advance. Hotel charges $ 10 to register the car in the driveway and leave it in the parking lot. No entanto, we have a bit of our history, talked about the expedition and explain that Tanajura actually was not just a car – beyond our constant companion, was also our home. The conversation flowed and allowed us to stay in town with Tana.

Wandered the streets of sand in search of a place to spend the night. That's when we find the cozy Hotel Sunset, located in front of the dune Sunset, one of the main sights of Jeri. We were very well received by the Owner Auricélia, who sympathized enough with the project and welcomed us into their hostel. The breakfast each morning in the hall opened in front of the dunes was very nice and relaxing.

On our first day, we start with Tanajura to Mangue Seco Beach, where is held the Sea Horse Ride – a boat trip down the river that surrounds the beach and is home to this pet friendly. Being able to be with Tana in Jericoacoara was a great experience. We continued with the freedom of being able to move around where needed and not well understood hire the services of buggy, that monopolized the rides in the city. Even with the tide still high, Once de por 10 am, we reach the other side of the big Dune Sunset to proceed towards the curb. That idyllic landscape, with the green sea gently coming close to the dunes was magnificent. The feeling of freedom was much, not more cabíamos within Tanajura. With the exception of the driver, we got no bracket, extend one arm and let the wind pass through our body as We enjoyed the beauty of the landscape. For a second, it was as if we could fly. About an hour river boat allowed us to see firsthand some seahorses, despite the high tide. The guides told us that there is a great effort to preserve this species at the site, which is frequently visited by tourists and biologists.

Thus we proceeded to our next destination: A Lagoa Azul, one of the most famous sights of Jeri. On our trail to reach the city with the guide, He showed us some points of interest along the way, An embrace to Lagoa. As the track record in GPS, we could get there alone. Only we did not unforeseen that awaited us in the midst of sandy trails. Following the tire marks on the beach, suddenly we are faced with a fairly steep slope, What made the Tanajura quicasse literally on the beach. The blow was so strong that, even with the protection of aluminum shipbuilding, a piece of the radiator was broken and blue water began to leak additive. We had a problem at hand – was impossible to follow with no water in the radiator Tanajura. It was not what we expected, much less what we wanted for our first day at Paradise. But what is the grace of the trip if we were not enough for a perrengue occasionally? It, sincerely, there could be no better place to break the car: beachfront! No stress and no tears over spilled milk, breathe deeply and can lead to Tana with the help of some local doctors in the city of Prea, a few km from Jericoacoara. A later, who would na Lagoa Azul, It is now overseeing the work of Joe, mechanic who took care of the injured Tanajura. Part of the experience.

Late afternoon, turn to Jericoacoara, where the path, stopped at the quaint Tree Sloth. The tree seemed to be lying, like you're relaxing to the sound of the sea. The will was lying beside her and be right there, admiring the infinite. But we went ahead to try to catch the sunset on the dune that bears the same name. We arrived late. As we climbed the dune, people already down, once the sun had crossed the horizon. The beauty after sunset is still remarkable, but we could not pass up the opportunity again the next day. The end of a day like this could only end in pizza. We went to the center and met Jeri Corner Pizza, where we ate a delicious pizza and watch a TV futebolzinho.

Next day, tried again to get to the Blue Lagoon, much more carefully this time. Tudo quiet. We crossed by boat, while we waited on the beach Tanajura. Despite the lack of sun take a bit of brightness of the landscape, you could still enjoy a beautiful view. Nets dipped in fresh water of the lagoon are extremely inviting, making the place very warm. Relax there for a while and then went to the Paradise Lagoon false, where he also had spent with the guide on our arrival in Jericoacoara. His name was false because it was a smaller pond next to a larger, known as the Paradise Lagoon. False in name only, the place was a paradise, Fate of. There was more space to accommodate the sand in the Blue Lagoon, and in our opinion, the landscape was even more beautiful. Especially with the sun showed up, intensifying the bluish tint of the water. Ate a fish very well served at local restaurant (a delight!) and enjoyed the day there before returning to Jericoacoara, where the sun waiting for us.

Dessa vez, we loose. We could get our little place in the Sunset Dune to expect the show to happen. As the sun aproximava horizon, an explosion of color had taken over the sky. See the sunset at sea in Jericoacoara was a highlight of the trip here. Indescribable feeling.

The day was very productive so far, but the night kept surprises. The spirit of freedom spoke up again, when we decided to camp and prepare for a baked fish dinner on the beach that connects to Jericoacoara Camocim. The place was way to follow trip to the Delta of, Our next destination. We went downtown and bought charcoal and everything else we needed to complement the meal. The fish we had bought the afternoon fresh, directly from the warehouse of fishermen on the beach of Prea, neighbor Jeri. Outside the shop, Tanajura drew the attention of that nice Mr, they approached us when we returned with the groceries to the car. He captured the adventurous spirit of the expedition and decided to come forward and introduce your business expeditions to Antarctica! Yes, that distant and extremely cold continent south of the globe! Conversation will, conversation and has several interesting stories have emerged. That's when we realized we were facing one of the most interesting people we meet here. Mr. Gunnar Hagelberg was born a traveler, know more than 230 countries and Brazil was to Alaska to ride in the 1974 (imagine how it was doing at that time!). With what he had to tell the story, we could be whole days listening. We are more than two hours talking, standing, in front of the shop. We listened open-mouthed stories he shared with great enthusiasm. After the conversation, we were even more excited about our trip and it might give us.

With the purchases made, we plan our dinner on the beach, although we are already late in the evening. We chose a good place to stop and prepare the camp Tanajura. Roast fish and dine in the light of one of the more starry heavens we found so far.

We agree to our tents to the sound of the waves, while the first rays of sun lit up the beach. Perfect setting for breakfast in the morning, we eat quietly contemplating the scene before taking a trip.

We started toward the beach Tatajuba, from where to get the city to continue to Camocim. Taking a small piece of boat, the rest of the way was all done by sand. This shortcut would save us significant time to reach the Delta of the second and the local, showed no major difficulties. We travel with the instructions we got in Jericoacoara and whenever we could confirmávamos with locations along the way. It was when we had the "luck" to find a local guide, carrying two tourists on a ride toward Tatajuba. When asking directions, he kindly offered us to follow his path to reach the city.

It was too easy to be true. We did not incorporate the boy was Michael Schumacher at the peak of their times and speed as he cut in from the sand banks in his sloop red. The Tanajura is strong, but carrying more than 3 tons in a soft sandy ground, with several passages of ascent and descent was too steep for our traveling companion. Soon, He moved away and lost sight of amid the curtain of sand that rose in its path. Looking at the sides, All we saw were huge piles of sand and little hope that anyone else could pass that way. The guide had taken us down a path completely different from what we sought. We were lost in the midst of a huge park dunes.

But there is nothing that is bad enough to not worsen. Trying to trace the car we left that place, we jammed a, twice. Being that the second time, the Tanajura bogged down on the edge of a drop absurdly high and inclined, those who fear only gives the Look. Static Ficamos, frightened by the situation in which we had placed in. Any false move and the bank could drop below Tanajura, bringing with it, The Dream Expedition 4×1. At that time, all our time and money invested in the project were by a thread. It was hard to think of a solution while we were analyzing the situation. That's when two other local guides fell from the sky and went on our side. We help. Accustomed to this type of situation in the dunes, They showed us how to get out of trouble and gave more strength to the decision to take demorávamos. Weight of one side of the car, desatolamento embedded boards and much positive thinking so that he could get out Tanajura. It was with much effort she left. Relief was Tudo feel you get at that time. Never place the Tana in such a situation. After the scare, must stop at the beach of Tatajuba to replace the thoughts in order before traveling toward Camocim.

Charm and enthusiasm, Median and Alívio. Emotions were not lacking in our passage for Jericoacoara. This paradise was a special point of our trip, which we take good memories, some lessons and certainly, many stories to tell.

      Oi Charlene!

      Sorry for the delay in responding, not even know if you've made the trip.

      Then, in fact there is a large stretch of mountains with many curves. But did the day, very sunny and despite a bit of seasickness (to anyone who was in the backseat), and really rocking, did not seem dangerous. But there may also be associated with the issue of feeling safe in driving on roads with hills. How are SP're used to it…
      As for other hazards (assaults, many trucks) we can not tell because we have not seen or heard of it when we go through.

      Hugs!
