Our happy group has left the beauty of Angra for the urban environment of Sao Paulo where we are installed in the rather sophisticated Marriott Airport Hotel. Our goals at this stop are a bit different as we will be meeting up with our friends from the Ursuline school in Riberao Preto in order to tour a potential site for the upcoming 2012 global gathering of Ursuline students which we at Ursuline Dallas will co-host with the Riberao Preto Ursuline school. As you can imagine, it's a whole different world in this business hotel than in our previous little family-owned pousada. Our students remain delighted with every new experience and they are currently shopping at the local grocery market for a fresh supply of their favorite Brazilian treats. Now that we have a top speed internet connection (woo hoo), we can share a few videos from the past couple of days with you - One of the penguin sighting, one of another thrilling lab experience with Dr. Scott and one of a reflection of our favorite moments of the day (sorry about the poor sound quality on that one). We hope you will enjoy the videos!! Tomorrow we will be back in touch to share our impressions of the site for the 2012 Ursuline student conference.

Thanks for sharing as your travels look rewarding and are providing an opportunity to learn about each other, other cultures, history, and everything in between. What an incredible opportunity to expand your mind and live life! Love seeing Brazil through "your lens"....Continue to enjoy. Kathy Merkel Hinson (Emily's aunt from North Carolina)
