On my final evening here in Uruaçu, I was treated to a walking tour with Lidia and Cida, which included shopping, palmonharia (a tamale-like treat), and a short cut onto my own personal wonderland--a street of birds! As they flew back and forth to find the perfect sleeping spot, Lidia said, they are saying goodbye for Uruaçu.
I leave this place with warmth in my heart, a celebration for new friends in my head, and a poignant sadness for the ending of my two short weeks of loving welcome and kindnesses.
I tried to post the video...but no luck. Just imagine chittering birdies and being filled with a joyous feeling.
