As you know, I'm a country girl at heart! The city is fine, but eventually I need to hear birds, listen to the sea, enjoy a cool breeze that blows through the trees - NATURE! Salvador is fun and great, but it's a concrete jungle filled with high-rise buildings, traffic, people, and noise. So we took the ferry across to the island of Itaprica. There's actually two different locations to catch the ferry. 1) a ferry for passengers and vehicles. 2) a faster, but smaller ferry for passengers only. We took the larger one that included vehicles. The minute we docked, I knew that's where I wanted to stay - I could hear birds! CAUTION: The only snag we ran into was - We did this on a Sunday. BAD IDEA! Everybody goes to the island on the weekend which makes the return trip lines horrendous! We STOOD in line waiting & waiting & waiting. The line was worse than Disneyland lines - two to three hours! Note to Jacque: go during the week.
