Still workin' (or not)...

Boa tarde! We have arrived at the District Conference in Avare, marking the last leg of our journey. As we begin to reflect on the amazing whirlwind of adventures, we also prepare for a killer weekend with friends from all over Sao Paulo state. The conference promises to be a supremely enjoyable few days with a healthy dose of hugs and greetings and a dash of "this is your life" from our journeys through Brazil.

But before we head out to spend time with our most gracious hosts once more, I will take a quick look back at some of our recent visits. If you don't hear from us for a day or two, you know we're having an awesome time :)

Here follows part two of my series on people working. And maybe a couple not working so hard...

Training the administration users on new software in Bofete

Starting the process to roast and package the coffee beans at Jaguari in Ourinhos

 

Surveying the next move while mudding the new outpatient facility at Santa Casa in Avare

 

Folding and pressing the laundry at Santa Casa, Avare

 

A different kind of laundry, at a commercial laundromat in Avare

Cloning orchids in Santa Cruz do Rio Pardo

Drying coffee beans the old-fashioned way at Melitta, outside of Avare

Fishing on the riverbank in Santa Cruz, naturally the Rio Pardo

 

Putting finishing touches on the chocolates in Santa Cruz

 

 

Happy Friday tomorrow. Keep on keepin' on, wherever you are and whatever work you do.
