Where does the time go?

Oh my, the time is flying by. Already I am a third of the way into my trip! It makes me realize that I still have a lot that I want to do. Still planning trips to Sao Paolo, Iguacu, Ilha Grande, Parati, Buzios, and Buenos Aires (aper-let me know). Thanks also for the birthday cards, it´s good to know you people back home haven´t forgotten me.

Surprisingly, the weather here these last few days has been less than sublime. All chilly and rainy. Supposedly normal, so say the Brazilians. The forecast for the next week doesn´t look that great either. HEY RIO, I ONLY PACKED ONE SWEATSHIRT! What am I supposed to do with all these spaghetti-strap tank tops I meticulously chose to fit in my suitcase. ARRRGH.

Family dinner with the roomies was last night, Jens Um (the German) made us all goulash with these dough ball things that I forget the name of. Delicious! Some of you that know me best may not believe this, but I have become hooked on soymilk. I know, I know, normally I am a die-hard 2%er. But under these conditions of cardboard box flash-pasteurized pseudo milk, I had to find another way. And it was soy.
