Arrival in Brazil
December 17th, 2008 at 9:00 am (traveling)
As of noon yesterday, I’ve arrived in São Paulo! Iza, her family, and a few of her friends met me at the airport, and then we drove to her apartment which is about an hour from the airport.
São Paulo traffic is almost like the Philippines, only with a slight difference… In the Philippines, because of the traffic, cars simply don’t move. Here, either the cars don’t move, or they move really fast!
We pretty much had the day free, so Cintia, Iza, and I drove around São Paulo a little bit and they showed me Iza’s school. When we came back we just relaxed around the house. I also got to meet Iza’s godmother, who came over for dinner.
Check out my photo gallery, which I’ll probably updating every day with new photos.
UPDATE: The link to my photo gallery didn’t work before, but I’ve fixed it… try it again.

Nice photo, Eamon! You must have been comfortable with your seat-mate, getting this photo from your aisle seat.

Eamon!! Why so many photos of such randomness?!?! But we are glad that you are having a good time.
P.S. Tell Iza Hi for us…
