June 2

We spent the evening at Tiago's house...over bread, salame, and guess what...wine. Rodrigo and Marina drove in from Sao Marcos and Everton from Farrouphila. We had a lovely time!

But where's Pablo???

We were on Radio Garibaldi in the morning. Our interpreter was from the Cultura Americana language school in Garibaldi (there are many language schools here in Rio Grande do Sul). After that, we visited with the Mayor and then took a tour of the city on a bus previously used for the military.


After lunch, we visited the second largest producer of cutlery, Martinazzo.

Our other tour included a visit to Frinal, a chicken factory. For sanitary purposes, we had to change into new clothes. (Monica had to change out of her beautiful new boots.) The smell was overwhelming but it was interesting to see how chickens make it to the dining table. Thank you for the sacrifice, chicken!

Bawk, bawk and a cockadoodledo! I can see that was serious business having to take the boots off! Do you sleep with them on? ha
