Here we are! Officially leaving Rio and moving inland!
Liz and I at the airport...
Made it! This is me on the map
After our driver dropped us off at our hotel, we walked around the streets. It was very different than Rio. Much cleaner, less crowded, and people were more clothed. Quieter, and more like a hometwon. Here we are in front of a fountain in the square
The next day, our driver drove us from there to Sao Paolo. Here we are at our NICE hotel in downtown.
We decided to go out to eat that night and as you can see, the streets here look like a typical American street. We even ran into a few, not many, but a few people that spoke English. This would NOT have happened in Rio!
At a LARGE city park in Sao Paolo. It was much like a Forest Park or Central Park to us.
That is a black swan below them on the bridge in this park
In the park...
On our last day there, we went downtown and discovered an amazing cathedral, walked the street vendors, and made it to the top of the country's highest building.
Here is a local who found me on the street and gave me some handmade baby boy booties! They were such a nice people down there! Very courteous, pleasant, not quick to anger, and people were very willing to start conversation with you. I was shocked that she just handed me this hand-made present and she didn't know anything about me!
