So Eric and I have been fighting some sort of allergy or cold since the island and tonight I finally feel a bit better. I am sure getting the right medicine helped. Mom spoke with the pharmacist and apparently people can develop an allergy to the fireworks. Most commonly children. I have had nasal congestion and a sore throat. Unable to smell or taste. What a curse in Brasil! I was glad to find taste coming back by lunch today.
We started the day late, but still did a lot today. We wenht out to Tia Janes and had cocido. Tons of vegetables and some meat. You squish all the veggies together and eat them sort of like baby food. Mmm. So yummy. I need to make it when I get back to Davis. Lauren would love it. <3 Uncle Dan was there and gave Tia Jane a phone that you plug into the computer. For $20 a year it gets unlimited calls to the US. But it doesn´t know it is in Brasil so my aunt can call anybody in the US for super cheap now. We called my dad, aunt and Dan! Oh, wow. I rambled so much. It was SO good to hear his voice and geek out about WoT.
Aferwards we went to the mall and just walked around. I got something for Dan and myself! I think he will be super excited. Really good price. On our way back, mom dropped Eric and I off at the lan house and we spent an hour there. This is the life. Brasil AND friends. I want them to come next time. That would be awesome. I have Villas! Mom is going to stop renting it out!
