English Class and Hanging out with the neices!

I have an English Class every Saturday where I help out a friend from church and answer questions about culture and ask the students about their culture.
Last Saturday everybody brought some Brazilian cuisine. There was brigadeiro, ¨sighs¨i dont remember the word in portuguese, 2 types of cake that wasnt made with flour but was good, some kind of lemon mousse, pão de queijo (that was my favorite!), and I brought my chocolate chip cookies and snickerdoodles. It was cool.

When I came home from class, Sarah and Sophia were playing and I guess we decided to be a bunch of fatties! hahahahaha The pictures are the events that followed...

Fake-o chunkers!
Too much coxinha for Sarah! rsrsrsWe did surprised faces...Sad faces...Just weird faces I guess...
I think we´re singing...or tired?
And Sophia had a diet shake and last weight...sell-out! rsrsrsrsSarah, Sophia, and me

Futbol!!!

Downtown Campina Grande!!

Downtown!!!

I really don´t remember what the name of this is...but it´s beautiful and it´s kind of a big landmark for the city. It looks like a postcard to me! rsrsrs

Some statues downtown!

Palmtrees! You don´t see that in NY! rsrsrsrs

When we first went to one of these I had no idea what was going on...but now I´m a regular! rsrsrs

One of the many churches downtown...

The Parque de Crianças!!! This is where I go to the library!!!

The Library!!!!! I go here for my interviews and find out more!!

Cool animals next to the park.

Really funny...right before lunch, the roads get really full of kids coming home from school. I was late to take a good picture of the roads really full, but I think it´s really funny because it´s like clockwork. Every day. right after school. home. for...LUNCH!!!! dun dun DUN!!!
Just an awesome picture of houses in Brazil!

My next attempt to post pics...hopefully it works!!!
