We are about 80 hours into our adventure and the kids are enjoying the sweet Brazilian lifestyle. Lot's of fruit, sweet breads at breakfast, and even ice cream! Campinas is a bit more expensive than we thought, so the apartment search has been an eye opener. We haven't seen this kind of apartment market since we rented in Manhattan many moons ago. But we now have two good prospects. We'll be deciding on a place tomorrow and hopefully we can move out of our hotel room next week.
The weather has been great, mid-70's in the day and 60's in the eve. And the food has also been terrific so far - lot's of fresh veggies, tons of fruit, rice, beans, and assorted other delights. We are starting to feel a bit claustrophobic in our hotel as it is isolated from the city by the rest of the University campus. But we hope to rent a car soon and see more of the area. A friend of mine from Grad school has very graciously been showing us around and pointing out the do's and don'ts of Brazil.
