Vivende Oriente

We tried to relax at a pousada in Sao Jose that we stayed in two years ago when we were in Brazil.  However, it rained both days and the day it was somewhat sunny in the afternoon we forced ourselves into the pool.  The pousada had all their rooms open into a pool/restaurant area so we thought we could put the kids to sleep and eat right outside their door.  One of the nights we were there, we put all the kids to bed and laid down in the dark room with them "until they fell asleep."  We were probably asleep before them and slept through the night.  So much for alone time :)  But it is a beautiful place, right on the beach, with good food and a delicious gourmet breakfast included.  Here's a few pictures of the place.
