Potentially last blog

Alright a feeling of dread and excitment is filling us in Brazil. We want to go home but we really don't want to say goodbye here. We have fallen in love with the people and country of Brazil. And Kenny and I have fallen in love with surfing but that's kind of an aside. Tommorrow we leave at 8 am for Falls Igasu.

Last night after I finished the blog the girls had a sleep over! They stayed at Edonia's and Amanda's two local girls our age who live really close. They enjoyed the night. The next day us boys were awoken at what the clock said to be six am to the sounds of construction. They are adding onto our builing and it was quiet noisy. At 8:13 when the alarm was set to go off or so Alex comes and wakes us up telling us its 9. The clock had changed to be much earlier so by the time we got up to the house it was 10 or so in the morning :S woops. After that we had breakfast and just hung around the house until lunch. After lunch we all folded tracks. lots of tracks. Since there were so many of us though it went by rather quickly. After that we all walked to the supermarcado again. This time we went to one further away and we got shown the local school along the way. Then we headed back and are chilling here now and are going to get hotdogs for supper again. I think I shall likely get that delicious giant burger again. :) Ciao all. If I don't blog again see you all in Canada
