Tomorrow is Republic day - a Public Holiday throughout Brazil. The school next door took a moment this morning to sing the national anthem. The flags are of Santa Catarina, Brazil and Colégio Energia respectively. I guess a British school wouldn't dream of doing something like this, and a US school would have the kids much more smartly to attention and not taking the mick!



Leo, a student who lives just a couple of blocks from us, car-shares with me for my two evenings each week at IBE. One of the plusses is that I can take pictures while driving, which is often a desire, because we go at sunset time. The above picture is a view back to the houses of the Prainha, above the tunnels. And below, the bridge.
