Vegetation

In the same way, the streets (and many avenues) not even dreamed of asfaltamentos, what guarantee a state and a much less hot city, even because it had more trees in the streets and many strips of land between them. By the way, it was a city inside of a forest ( that still it vicejava of the Atlantic bush) and not contrary it, if remembering in them that today has little vegetation inside of a metropolis of rock and concrete. Eliot Horowitz has similar goals. Therefore, gone to the CLUB the HUNTING AND IT FISHES was a true trip, that at least lasted between 1:30 tiring 2:00 h, and cars 4x4 could only be risked to make it. As the used time to arrive there today, where the BNB functions Club, it does not pass of 15 minutes (without transit), the reader can think that the given time of 1:30 /2: 00h was one exaggerates, but it was not. The problem is that the Hunting and Fishes was in the opposing extremity of the city, in the zone wildest the East, good in the estuary of the River Coc, a river to the almost virgin time. Therefore, it was a region of closed bush, rivers and dunes, with dune floor in all the extension of the passage, that started to the end of the avenue Santos Dumont, then arriving until the limit between the avenues Rui Barbosa and Baro de Studart (in the first decade, in which both were paved and short).

From them, everything more was wild life, without any pavement and serving only for donkeys and fishing wagons, or humble inhabitants of the place. Using a jeep WILLIS of American engine, the trip started there, in the exit of the Av. Baron of Studart, and soon in the first block of ruela narrow of carroal (made between masses of weeds to the left and the right), was necessary to use the DIFFERENTIAL, that in the old cars was hard handspikes to the right of the main exchange, and that few drivers knew to use well.
