Wednesday was my last day in Uruaçu. I have not had time for all of the blog posts I want to share...and will try to get to those this week. But for now, I have to post this special fairwell. On this last day, I went to a very interesting outdoor museum with Liberato, Douglas (IT guy from IFG) and Antonio (another teacher). Then I was treated to a stroll around town poking into shops and having a snack with Lidia and Cida. On the way back to the hotel, we passed through a residential area where I was treated to a symphony of hundreds of araninos (little araras, or in English birds from the macaw family-like Apollo, my bird). As Lidia said, they wished me goodbye from Uruaçu. I took video and tried to upload it, but after loading for five hours, still nothing...so I am posting these sweet pics instead. Finally, my new friends shared music and cheese and bread and olive oil and sparkling wine with me until late into the clear, fresh, starry night.
I will miss this place and its people. and birds.
