Today we went on an excursion into Sao Paulo. Sao Paulo is one of the biggest cities in the world!
We visited Independence Park, which commemorates Brazil´s independence from Portugal. It also hosts the mausoleum for Dom Pedro, the liberator of Brazil.
The park is beautiful.
We had some activities and a short skit on the history of Brazil´s independence.

We also experienced another of Sao Paulo´s famous things – really bad traffic!

Hi Will, Sounds like you will be having a fun and interesting weekend. Add this to it, Florida won, blew them out in the 4th. However, they may not have beat the line, so we’re probably even from the Bama game. NFL Divisional playoffs this weekend. Have fun with Hector.
Kristin says go Gators! Love, Dad

Brazil looks very interesting! The gardens look like Italy and the grafitti like NY…very colorful!
