Brazil
I'm beginning to like the sounds of Brazil. Always stick the with green curry chicken soup.

Rio and more....
I'm rereading your S.A. blogs today and am shocked to see no comment from me. What the heck. Laughed and held my breath through the money story as I was hoping it would turn out well. Loved Ted's comment below!! Time to rest and reset.

What animal is represented
Interesting to see a possible Scarf around the animals neck , was it not always hot those days ? I wonder if you felt a little like Indiana Jones while in the tombs? Thank you for yet another interesting & educational trip that you have shared!

Different from the normal Starbucks for sure
Out of nowhere, we came upon this little dome. Was fun and quirky.

Enjoyed re-reading this one!
You had me at Dulce de Leche and Chocolate orange... We love to ride funiculars. You are doing some nice wandering. Scallops are one of my favorites and it sounds like those were cooked perfectly.

More magic memories
Yes I would have loved to have been down on the beach, but was pleased to see you guys having so much fun. Barefoot is the only way to walk on a beach! What a magical sunset on the other side, and the company just made it even more special. I just wish I hadn't been laughing so much at your Day Two Chair Folding Challenge, otherwise there would have been photos - I was trying to get my camera out but couldn't manage that and still stay upright on the crutches :-D

Argh, that stupid chair
That sunset on the beach was a very special evening. It was worth the chair aerobics in the end. Although I am glad you weren't able to get the camera out. No one should have to see that slapstick routine.

I wish we could bottle these TB meetups
Now you know why my flights were booked within minutes. I'm glad you arrived after I was out of hospital, as I would seriously have considered self discharging to be there!! Always a safe bet leaving yourself in the hands of the Dancing One :-)

So True
I couldn't agree more about bottling the TB meetups. What a eclectic group of people with the same traveling passion. Each has a story to tell. Having you with us was such a sweet addition to the trip. I would have supported you in breaking out of the hospital.

Sometimes you just do what you gotta do.....
Tourist v traveller, like everyone has said - sometimes you just do what you gotta do to get somewhere. I'm glad in a way that I'm playing catchup on these blog entries of yours having now met you in person. Love the sense of humour, and now they are almost like audible books because I hear the voice and personality behind the words :-)

The Best Compliment
Thank you Jo. To hear that you can hear my voice is the best compliment because I try to write these as if I were telling a story. I hope you enjoy the rest of the stories.

This still makes me laugh.....
" It was time for a star talk. I was super excited to hear what the Kardashians and Beyonce were up to, but as it turns out it was a talk about actual stars in the night sky. Yeah, I guess that makes sense in retrospect. " :-D :-D

Bridge Brendan
I can just imagine you waving to the crowds in your space suit :-D And that photo with the sunset in the background, way better than any greenscreen background! Definitely worth the hit-n-run stopover.

Well, through good timing and lots of luck, I am about to hit the skies again. It has been far too long since my last journey. As much as I love going to visit my family each year, the act of heading to the airport and climbing on a plane to the homeland lacks the edge, excitement and the element of the unknown that a trip abroad brings. As with the rest of the world, my life shifted and changed through the pandemic; however, it is time to set free Brenno, the traveler lurking just beneath my daily home persona. The next big adventure is a trip to the Galapagos Islands. This will once again i... full info
