Another blessing of this tour is the food.  We love the Brazilian food and are being treated royally!  As Zach Wilson points out in an excited way, almost every restaurant is a buffet.  I believe a diet is in my future upon returning to North America.



Sharon and Kimberly are happy with all the vegetarian choices as well.



But most of us are happy because of the sumptuous offerings of meat that is abundant (see "carnivore.")



In fact, as of today (our first week), we have already been to three different Chuasscarias!  Sunday night after the concert, our friends in Goiania treated us to our second Chuassacaria and we enjoyed a third one upon our arrival in Belem.





Here's a hint from a self-designated "pro" (me) :  With all the seemingly endless choices at these types of restaurants, hold out for the "cupim de bola."
