We stayed at the Hotel San Pietro in Pato Branco last night. Breakfast was included in our room rate. The breakfast was wonderful, one of the best we have had so far.
The distance we had to cover today was fairly short, only 49 miles, so we decided to do some exploring along the way. Duke saw a waterfall called Salto Grande not too far from our route so we decided to try to find it. We drove several dirt roads and stopped every time we saw something interesting. There was a lot of wheat being harvested and corn and soybeans coming up.
Finally we found the falls but there was no way to get very close and we had to settle with stopping by the side of the road and catching glimpses of the falls through the trees.
After a fun time exploring the back roads we arrived at Hotel Lago Dourado in Dois Vizinhos where we are tonight. After a bit of a rest we walked around the lake below the hotel.
We ate dinner in the hotel.
