I was looking for places to visit while in Brazil. I was choosing between Ouro Preto or Paraty. I decided to head on over to Paraty because it was in the middle of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. Ouro Preto was too far away from Sao Paulo. I figured I'll just make time for Ouro Preto during another trip to Brazil.

I took the late afternoon bus from Rio to Paraty.
