 Visiting Ceara, Brazil
Arrived in Fortaleza the capital , rented a car at airport and slept over in town. There were nice restaurants and activities on the beaches of Fortaleza. I had mt best Muqueca de peixe there.
Next day we drove to Jericoacoara.
We stayed in Pousada Portugal in Gipoca and got a dune buggy with driver to take us to Jericoacoara which is over one hour ride over many gorgeous white dunes
The town of Jeri(for short) is a small simple fisherman town which has one sandy main street which offer some shops, mainly of handmade objects of locals, some restaurants, bars, some small bed and breakfast inns. At the end there is a huge expanse of beach and ocan, which remains shalolow for quite some distance then drops into deep ocean with waves. There is a 60 ft. dune to climb up and people go there to watch the sunset go down.
The dunebuggy took us to several other gorgeous locations , but I remember mostly the Lagoa Azul which was a big natural lagoon of fresh water with fishes, where one could swim and sunbathe like on a deserted island.

I think we're close; it's probably west of Fortaleza and close to the rodeo arena at Caucaia.

There was an "aerogerador" in your buggy video; it was only for a few frames, but the towers are definitely around.

The key phrase was: Cidade Da Crianca (it’s a place in Fortaleza downtown like a big square where the teams need to take a taxi and run to that place to do another challenge, but before they needed to tell me the key and I gave them the envelope. I’m having difficulty explaining all the details because I’m just learning English and am not good, excuse my mistakes. . heres the spoiler |

They pass by some sort of billboard or road marker (hard to spot: the Veoh taskbar keeps getting in the way ). |
