Not allowed in the “lost” minivan (we got separated and would never have gotten to our destination but for the satellite link in the accompanying armed escort car):
- Coconut water (in original dispenser)
- Snacks
- Drinks (never mind our cooler with bottled water)
- Ice cream
- Smiling wet children (apparently)
- Smoking

Sorry, don’t understand the whole story behind !!!???
Can you explain “deeper” for “dummies” ?????????
T H A N K S !!
I guess you found the PROHIBITED sign on the beach !
I guess they have “blond” armed escorts !
I guess the police (4 guys) stopped the minivan !
I guess that is the lost minivan – stolen !
I guess you got lost and found your way back through satellite inside armed Volkswagen !
I guess there is much more which I don’t guess, right ???
We were traveling in a caravan of six minivans and two armed escorts. Our driver, in the last van, stopped for an unscheduled bathroom break, so the trailing security car did as well. From then on we were on our own. Turns out th4e driver didn’t know where we were going, cell phone coverage was spotty, and we only arrived at our destination because the security car had some kind of satellite link that allowed it to tell the other security car to come back to get us.
To further confuse you, I took the second photo the day before, in a completely different location.
Other than that, good guesses 😉
Wonderful, thanks for explanation !!
Why do you had such kind of security ? Is it so dangerous there ?
I was there 20 years ago and all was safe and fine. Yeah times
and situations are changing everywhere.
Thanks again D.
Apparently they didn’t do this last year. I don’t know if there was a perceived need, or if it was to make clients feel safer (I’m ambivalent in that regard). However, when we got lost in the middle of nowhere in Ceará, they saved the day!
