You can call the bridge as 3ª ponte or the official name, Ponte Deputado Castelo de Mendonça!

This why I like coming to this site, because I get to view and learn cities I never knew about. It's also interesting that Brazil has so many unique cities, it's kind of a shame that in the states when you mention Brazil, the first thing people mention is Rio and almost nothing else

You're right. And believe me, despite of what can be said in this forum, Brazil is not so in love with Rio as foreigners may think! In fact, sometimes it looks like Brazil has turned it back to that city and it's too much easy going population. Cariocas thinks sometimes that they are the essence of Brazilian soul:lol::lol::lol: God! How they are wrong!:bash::bash:

I seem to remember you don't like Sao Paulo either! You don't like any other part of Brazil but Brasilia?

I see Vitória as a smaller Rio. The hills, the bridge... And it's also a nice city to live and visit ( turism is not so expensive comparing to Rio, SP and Salvador I guess ).

I agree with you.

Have you ever heard something about "Lençois Maranhenses"?

It is the paradise on the earth. Please, see the pics.
Google it.
