I have arrived

Got to the Fazenda after dark last night because my plane out of the US was late and so I got to spend 4 hours in the Rio airport--not as exciting as you might think.  So it´s beautiful here and everyone is fabulous!  I nearly strangled myself with my mosquito net last night and I´m pretty sure my bed is foam over plywood so I consider this camping.  Plus we don´t have glass in our windows, we eat outside, and we can´t put any toilet paper in the toilet--none, not ever!  So totally camping.  I think the  internet is powered by two old rabbits and the keyboard is all screwy in Portuguese, so excuse any typos.

They let me sleep in this morning and then Erica (the other Americana) gave me a tour.  Lunch soon, then siesta :)  Everyone is impressed with my Portuguese even though it´s mixed with a fair amount of Spanish and Italian.

More to come and photos next week...

love,
Sunny
