Brazil: Part 1

I can’t believe I’ve been away from Careful Feet for over a week. It all goes back to the age old question: when a blogger is on vacation, does that mean a vacation from the blog as well?

In this case, it would appear so. And as sorry as I am not to have been updating with great tidbits of things I’ve been up to,  I can honestly say I haven’t been up to very much, not considering getting ready for a big international move. Oh, and having spent my last few days in Brazil.

I’m having the time of my life. 

I came down to visit two good friends, both of whom I met the last time I lived in Europe. It has been so fun getting to know what their lives are like, who their friends and family are and experiencing as much as I can of their country in the short time I have here. So far it has been SO FUN.

Day one went pretty much as follows…

 We stopped at La Bicyclette, a really cute place with great pastries and coffee- which I needed after a 13-hour flight!

After getting some much needed caffeine, we went for a walk around the gardens. Being reunited with good friends is so fun; I love how I can pick up the craziness with Ni and Rai pretty much where it left off, if not more intense than when we left it. The gardens were a great place for our silliness.

 As you can tell, I couldn’t put the camera down.

 Luckily, people in Brazil are extremely friendly and were very accommodating of taking lots of pictures of us!

 Day 1 of Brazil was certainly a success, I have to say…and there’s plenty more where that came from!
