Update

Just a quick note that I'm still here. I've clearly fallen off the wagon in terms of my weekly posting schedule for FLFB. I have a pretty big change coming for the look of the blog, but I haven't been able to work on it lately. I'm still interested in sharing my Brazilian experiences, and I've been going through a ton a photos and videos I made during our time in South America, so there is enough fodder to keep the site going. I just need to get to it.

Below are a few pictures (not mine) of places I'll eventually be discussing.

Here's a shot from Sao Jose dos Campos, near the mall, about 2km from where our house was:


Here's a scenic shot from Iguazu Falls. About 1 year ago today, we took a 14 hour road trip across Brazil to visit these falls. They were spectacular beyond words, and beyond all concept of what you probably think of when you think of waterfalls. (You're probably picturing Niagara Falls). The place puts Niagara Falls to shame. For some perspective, in the middle of the left edge of the picture, you can see a footbridge. This footbridge was about 1km long, and the picture is probably showing about a third of it. The picture shows only a few of the 275 falls that are in this area.
