Cerrado - Blogabond

Staying in the picturesque colonial town of Pirenópolis, with cobblestone streets, red tile rooftops, lots of sun and _bright_ blue skies. This is in the ecoregion called the cerrado - Brasil's great plains or savanah. Visited a farm and enchanting nature reserve called Fazenda Vagafogo, about 5 km down a dirt road reached from Pirenópolis by motorbike taxi. Feasted on an amazing spread of fresh breads, mermelades, chutneys, cheeses, and other goodies for brunch, all from ingredients produced on the farm. Went for a hike in the woods and a refreshing dip in the river.
