Dear TM Family,
I left for Brazil on March 24. My family doctor who is an infectous disease
specialist suggested that I DO NOT take the shot for yellow fever so I did
not!!! BTW, I´m still in Brazil and will be returning on April 5th.
I and five friends landed in Rio and from then on referred to ourselves as
the girls from Ipanema. I am having the most awesome time. I am challenging
myself to do things that I probably would not do if I was able bodied!!!
I took a cable car up Sugar Loaf mountain, toured the city which is so
beautiful and ate, ate, ate,.
I am now in Iguassu Falls. I walked the cat walk to the Argentina side,
took the boat ride which literally goes under the falls and today I took a
helicopter ride over the falls. I was so scared doing each of these things but
what a great feeling afterward. Having wonderful friends who were always there
to give me a hand and encourage me made the difference.
I used bug spray with DEET which I don´t like but I felt protected.
All those who are deciding whether or not to travael.....I say DO IT!!! I ´m
not home yet and still can´t believe the experiences I´m having. Am I
dreaming??
Stay well everyone,
Tobe
