Today by far has been the most memorable...


I intended to help J with his English by reviewing numbers, days, months and common terms.  To my surprise he insisted I learn the Portuguese term for all of them.  He also insisted Xiao Feng join in and learn the days of the week, and he quizzed us both.  When we got bored we relocated to the "room with wifi" and J searched for his favorite American songs on YouTube and I translated them for him.


We started with "Where Are You Now" By: Justin Bieber and this song took us awhile to get thru.  I didn't need lyrics for the next song but got so excited that we had a Karaoke session instead.  (Candace, Marie and Lizzie you know what this looked like).  We didn't get thru "Life of the Party" By: Shawn Mendes so I decided to find the lyrics, translate them to Portuguese via Google and bring printouts for the teenagers since most of them were interested in our "musical language lessons."  I'm enjoying the older kids much more than the youngsters.  My knees and back can't withstand more than an hour of playtime.


My photos and videos capture the remainder of my day better than my commentary.

Take a look at this...

You'll see some familiar things in Salvador - Pelourinho

After Church...


I learned about the history of Brazil so will end with a throwback.
