I can now say that I have visited Brazil. We went into Foz de Iguazu and my host family drove me around the city a little. Then we stopped at a restaurant that mainly served desserts. I had something made of chocolate (I know, imagine me and chocolate...and coffee [although not Starbucks]).
I took pictures to post, but unfortunately, it appears the cord to transfer from my camera to computer did not seem to get packed. But, if I was going to forget something, I'd rather it be something small that I can do without. I may see if I can find a cord--if not, I'll use the video camera to take pictures to post while I'm here and then wait to transfer from my regular camera when I get back home.
I must say that I've enjoyed my first day in Paraguay. It reminds me a lot of Mexico in regards to traffic and safety. The house that I'm staying in has a gate around the outside, with two guard dogs. (One of them is a black Lab like my nephew-doggy Jake!)
It also makes me glad to know that I'll be able to chat with my husband with a webcam, so we'll still be able to see each other. It's not the same as being together in person, but it will make it easier on us to be apart during this time.
And in case you didn't see my sister's comment, she says that my dad actually got to choose where to eat for Father's Day! That's rare! :)
From what Graciella has said, she will be showing me around the city tomorrow. I can't wait to see what we do!
LOL.. I knew that we would forget something. This one is my fault. I was in charge of technology. You should be able to find a cable. It is just a normal USB cable.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the Jake dog's name? That's very important! Our mother needs to know the names of the dogs protecting you.
ReplyDeleteI will have to ask. I'll let you know. -Jana
ReplyDeleteI found out the names of the dogs...one is Preta, and the other is Linda. Linda is the one that is like Jake.
