Magical place Today I want to speak about a magical place in Brazil: "Lençóis Maranhenses" (in literal translation "Sheets of the state of Maranhão". It's known as this, because it looks like crumpled sheets from the sky. It's made up of changing dunes and ponds of rainwater . Some ponds are perennial. On the other hand others (most) are temporary. The best time to visit them is June, July and in the beginning of August, because before and after these months the majority of ponds are dry. Women go there dressed in bikinis to bathe in the ponds, while men dress in shorts or beachwear. The Park is very big and you can only arrive there by four-wheel-drive vehicles. Inside the Park the cars don't enter, so all the route inside the Park are accessible by foot. It's wonderful to walk on dunes, contemplate nature, walk in the ponds and watch the sunset in the late afternoon.
