This is acai, the love of my life...besides Rebekah. Acai is a fruit that they make into a smoothie that you eat, if that makes sense. But there's granola in it and it's soooo good. Rebekah loved it as well!
We loved the fresh fruit everyday. We had pineapple (pictured above), mango, papaya, oranges, tangerines, guava, caju, acerola (Rebekah's favorite juice), maracuja, and several different kinds of bananas.
This is a pizza restaurant. It's a rodizio which means you just sit down and they bring a lot of different kinds of pizzas around and you take whatever. We especially liked the chocolate pizzas.
Barbeque is a big thing in Brasil and people barbeque meat and sell it. Meat covered in farofa with garlic sauce is so good.
After church on one Sunday, this family invited Rebekah and I to have lunch with them. A typical Brazilian lunch is rice, beans, meat, and some sort of vegetable.
This is the Garoto chocolate factory in Vila Velha.
Us after a tour in the factory. There were two stops where we could eat as much chocolate as we could. We both felt sick after.

Casey went on his mission to Brazil. I refuse to show him any of these pictures. He would die! He wants to go back soo bad. It looks like you guys had a blast!
Wow...I'd like to go to Brazil just for the food! Chocolate Pizza??! There are so many fruits I've never heard of and the acai sounds really tasty.
When you wrote about the chocolate factory and mentioned the part where you guys were allowed to eat as much chocolate as you wanted, I got a clear image of you guys running around in a place much like the one in Charlie and the Chocolate factory.
Rebekah~! It was fun to see you at the game a few weeks ago! Hopefully we will see you this week!
