Farm and Beach House

      Last weekend's fun activities included a trip to the family farm and beach house.  At the farm I met the many chickens and roosters, baby chicks, cows, horses, pigs, and piglets.  They were all so cute!

We spent the day walking around and admiring nature, which included eating ripe oranges straight from the trees!

Yum!

We then traveled to the beach house in Saquarema, where we had a family barbecue, reunion with family and old friends, and a relaxing time by the pool.

We then proceeded to see some of Brazil's most beautiful beaches!

The weekend was a perfect end to a big test week at school and one of my favorite parts of the exchange so far.
