The Last Hoorah!

I can't even say how much fun we had having Grandma and Grandpa and Tiffany here.

It was wonderful to share with them a little bit of what we have experienced over the past year and a half. We gave them a little taste of the food, traffic and the culture of Brazil. What an experience.

They came on a wednesday about noon. They pushed aside there exhaustion and we took them to school to see J and C. I wish I had good pictures. C about jumped into there arms and J came running over with arms opened wide to give them a hug. The car ride home from school was the last rest they would get. For the next 2 weeks they visited Sao Paulo, Iguacu, and Rio.

M gave C a bloody nose. Waking up at 5:00 a.m. to catch a flight and then going non-stop the whole day doesn't always bring

out the best in us.

Looking just past us is the Sugar loaf or Pao de Acucar.

M was in the stroller pouting. Atleast he was quiet.

The tram we took to the top of Pao de Acucar.

It was beautiful!

Signature design for Rio's sidewalks.

This is where M and Grandma became best friends.

So Sweet!
