April Happenings

So what's been happening down here in Brasil since our last blog post? Well, we can sum that up in one word...Portuguese! Most of our time is consumed with classes and homework, but it has been paying off. I actually heard Jane dreaming in Portuguese the other night! I don't know what she said, but I know it was Portuguese. In spite of our grueling schedule, we have managed to find some time for a few extracurricular activities. Check out the pics from my birthday party and the pro soccer game we went to:
Jane and I decided to treat our host family to some Texas size burgers.
These are some of my most favorite things: Jane, Jane's famous homeade chocolate cake, Guarana (a Brasilian soda), Jane's famous homeade chocolate cake...
John Pedro and his friend Eduardo on our way to the soccer game.
This is Estadio Alfredo de Castilho, home stadium of Bauru's professional soccer team Noroeste. This was the championship game for all the teams within the state of Sao Paulo. Noroeste was playing Guaratingueta (say that 3 times fast) but ended up losing 1-0. It was still alot of fun!
This is Neto, the director of our language school.
