Like California, Brazil suffers its worst drought since 1933.
During the second week of Oct temperature reached over
40 degree C. We have to hide in air conditioned places.
Last weekend we receive rain for two days. It cools off quite a bit.
We filled up the car with ethanol.

Designated driver in Brazil
Rodovia dos Imigrantes meaning "immigrants' highway" in Portuguese (official designation SP‑160) is a highway in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The highway connects the city of São Paulo to the Atlantic coast and with the seaside cities of Santos and Praia Grande. It follows the route of Rodovia Anchieta and is also one of Brazil's busiest highways, especially on weekends. During sunny weekends, more than 1 million automobiles commonly cross its near 60 km run, separating the city of São Paulo from the sea.
Highway Imigrantes has 44 viaducts, 7 bridges, and 11 tunnels, along its 58.5 km stretch.
The highway has recently been expanded, in one of the most audacious feats of Brazilian highway engineering, with extremely long tunnels and high strutting
six-lane bridges constructed over the tropical rain forest which covers the steep faces of the Serra do Mar, the cliff range that separates the São Paulo plateau
from the seaside lowlands.
It is managed by a state concession to the private company, Ecovias, which also maintains Rodovia Anchieta;
it is, therefore, a toll road.
Have to change highway to different beaches.
Small villages
Arriving our destination, Itanhaém
