Incrível: Parque Nacional Lençois Maranhenses

Words cannot adequately describe some of the incredible (incrível) sights that I saw this weekend. This weekend, we flew to São Luís, a city in the state of Maranhão. From São Luis we journeyed by bus to Parque Nacional Lençois Maranhenses. Below are some photos from the national park. I plan to post an account of our trip tomorrow night, including an account of some of our travel difficulties, but the pictures will certainly do a better job of conveying some of the incredible views from the weekend.
