Happy Easter from Brazil

Easter on a boat! A bit nontraditional however, I did go to 6pm Mass this evening. My Easter meals consisted of pig intestine, rice, beans, a chocolate egg, pizza & Skol! Our hosts today were a riot! We took an hour drive out of Caruaru to a resort. It felt like a typical Summer Sunday on Gun lake with my family. Our drive to the resort was held up by a heard of cows. Apparently, they filled up on Easter lillies and took a nap in the road.

  1. Looks like you are having a great trip! I was watching Anthony Bourdain's show "No Reservations" earlier and the episode was being shot in Brazil, which triggered thoughts of you & your trip...he too had some intestine at one of his meals. I am sure by now you have mastered Portuguese, learned many local customs, and had at least a few caparinhas at the local watering hole.

    Enjoy the rest of your trip, keep taking pictures, and safe travels!

  2. So did you try the intestine? Does not sound appetizing to me. Glad you had some chocolate though :) Another nice picture!!
