so it has been awhile since i have last posted. the recent series of events have been so outrageous that i have failed to keep up. the panamerican games have recently been going on so brazil is basically in a frenzy..aka, the streets are hella going nuts. this evening i watched brazil vs. argentina at a nearby pub in LAPA where everything is just cccrrrrraaaackin. brazil won 3-0, can you believe how the streets were?! its funny the last time i saw brazil play argentina, i was in buenos aires! funny how the tables have turned and this time im in brazil...i cant believe how blessed i am..
its only about 9 pm and im already home. i took a combi (local busvan) home early by myself because i was not feeling well and a recent incident has left me hobbling around, relying on painkillers like ibuprofen and Apap for relief. whew, you dont even want to know. i do have photos from cristo, however. # 3 of the 7 wonders of the world! i went the other day, and its literally just 5 or 10 minutes up the hill from our house here in santa tereza.
i have work manana at 6 am, and i canNOT believe this is my last week in rio. ill then be in salvador, bahia for a month..whew thats gonna be crazy all on its own. ive had the most amazing dinners lately, rice, seafood and veggies galore. mmm. but im going to bed early, crazy how i miss you all so much.
hope everything is well back home, sending you all my love and thoughts from rio!
