Not sure why my posts don't have the correct date since my computer does.
Packed everything last night and was ready to go at noon. I
brought a lot of (heavy) books and a
whole suitcase of Dollar Store things teachers can turn into learning
activities. The Dollar Store things will be staying in Brazil, won’t be needing
them on the way home. Called the taxi and had quite a long drive to my next
destination, Vila Nova, which is also part of Sao Paulo. I’m not sure about the
taxi driver, the meter said 70 reals but he insisted it was 120 reals being a
Sunday and going from city to city. I asked for someone from the hotel to
confirm if he were correct, they agreed, so I had to give him his amount. (One
Canadian $ equals 2.13 Brazil reals.)
This hotel is the Intercity Premium, Ibirapuera, very nice,
no carpet, which I like. It’s similar to the Delta in Halifax and on a street
that looks like it’s a business district, very nice area.
Sao Paulo is the king of street graffiti, it is everywhere.
