GilliC, anyone else been? Is a quick trip realistic? Is it even worth it or should I just wait for some future date when I can combine it with a return to other parts of Brazil that I have already been to? I don't think I can get childcare for more than 4-5 days, max, and am itching for a solo trip. I would be visiting a friend there.
I'm open to any thoughts, from "it's awesome" to "it's totally kid-friendly, don't waste a solo trip" to "it sucks, skip it forever."
