This is the view from our window in Salvador. After a struggle to get a visa for Rahn and him missing his connection for Rio and me having to pay an arm and a leg to change my flight to finish up a grant for one of our sister organizations in Brazil - WE ARE FINALLY HERE. Last night we went out to Moqueca (a traditional Bahian seafood dish) and Caiparinhas (the Brazilian national cocktail made from Cachaca, the official Brazilian liquor made from sugar). Walking through the streets of Pelourinho I actually felt at home. We ran into friends of mine sitting out having a discussion on the street. So far we are just taking it easy and enjoying not having to be in the rat race in Boston. For a more reflective blog check out what I have been doing the past couple of days!
