the rest of the trip












so.... the rest of my trip was a blast! I went to my mission and visited some people who are very important to me. I then took an amazon tour outside of Manus and camped in the rain forest, fished for piranha, saw white and pink dolphins, jumping fish and crocodiles and lots of cool birds, and and we caught a jacare.


After this we went to the capital, Brasilia, visited a good mission friend of mine, and saw a lot of the national government buildings. Next was foz de Igussu, and then Sao Paulo. In Sao Paulo we went to an island called Ilha Bela, which means beautiful island. Yep,it was really cool. We hiked and went to some natural water slides, much fun. Before returning to Rio, i spent 2 more days visiting old mission friends who live in Sao Paulo. On my last day in Rio, i just hung out at the Employment center, we had a little party and i wanted to spend all the time i could with my friends there. I'll really miss our classes that we gave and especially the people at the center. After all is said and done, i love Brazil, but it's good to be home. I'm excited to see everyone at Christmas!
