7/12

 Hello and welcome back to the Brent Bible. I sincerely apologize to you guys that this blog was not posted yesterday. We got back to the hostel later than expected and it was a tight turnaround from Capoeira to Boomski.

Our day started off with class, where we learned the ins and outs of electricity and single-unit mass balances with multiple reactions. Interesting stuff. After class, we went back, had some lunch, and headed to the Afro-Brazilian Museum. It is located in a park in Sao Paolo and has an art exhibit and a history exhibit. Both were very cool and interesting.

The museum

Really big matches

I liked these paintings

After that, we waited a while for the Capoeira instructors to show up. We played taps with coconuts. When they came, they taught us some basic moves, about the culture behind it, and the instruments/rituals. For those who don’t know, Capoeira is a mix between martial arts and dancing, and was originally created by slaves in Brazil to disguise their practice of martial arts. It was a lot of fun and I think it will definitely help me fend off thieves.

After that, we went to dinner and then to the bar. It was an open bar for a great price. 30 USD for a massive burrito, a frozen Marg, and 6 Moscow mules. Was definitely in the flow state. 

Tapping in

Something to smile about

After dinner, we went to Alto, a nearby bar, had some drinks, and then went to Meow, which is a nearby club. We met up with the other dialogue there. After that, a few of us got some food at a food truck. The burger slapped. After that, we headed home and went to bed. I will post again tonight before we go out. We are celebrating Morgan and Marco’s birthdays at a karaoke bar. I hope everyone likes Bruno Mars
