Vacation

Ok so prepare yourselves for a long blog because I was just on vacation for 10 days doing a lot of stuff. So last Friday my family and I went on vacation to Itanhaem. It was sooooo nice just imagine it 10 days on the beach ooooo it is paradise. The first day we went to the beach me being a naive Wisconsinite totally forgot to put any sunscreen on my stomach, and guess what color it turned RED. It wasn't a light red either it was fire hydrant red. It looked like I was still wearing my swim suit. So yeah for now on I am covering my entire body with sun screen. The crazy part was it was only from 9-11 not even the hottest part of the day, and it is only spring. I am going to die in summer. O speaking of swim suits I bought my first Brasilian bikini. I was honestly kind of nervous cause you know that was all people talked about before I came here that the bikini bottoms are really small. And let me tell you the stories are 100% true. So, ok I am a small in United States, so hearing all of the stories I think o well I will try on a medium so it won't be as revealing. Yeah that plan did not work out. I come out of the dressing room and say " I think I need a bigger size", but nope they said that was how it was suppose to be. :O yeah there was no way in heck I was going to wear that. I need to ease myself into making the bikini smaller; I can't just go to thong right away. So, I ended up getting a large, which by the way is still smaller then my small bikini from United States. Yeah it doesn't completely cover my butt let's just end it at that before my dad has a heart attack.

O I got to do some nature stuff too last week. First nature I saw since I got here hahaha. We went to Mata Atântica. Which, is a really beautiful rainforest in the south of Brasil. We first went to see some Indian tribe, but that was a waste of time we didn't even do anything or see any of the Indians. But, the next thing we did was hike through the forest. It was suppose to be like a bird trail where you got to see toucans, and parrots, and other birds, but we never saw any. But, I did get to go swimming in a waterfall, which was amazing! The water was sooo cold, but it was very refreshing. It was kind of dangerous though cause the rocks are soooo slippery, but who cares it was still awesome. Also, while we were hiking through the forest a tiny, blue, cobra snake popped out of the ground. Yeah that kind of freaked me out, and when we were driving home a huge snake was just on the road. O but the forest was soo beautiful I liked it.

I was so sad to leave the beach, but I didn't have to go to school today (Monday), but the rest of my family did :P. So, today I went over to someones house I don't know just to hang out I guess. Well, that is it for now tchau tchau
