lunch

Day 3 of the tour. We tried desparately to keep lunches to a quick stop, but we're in Brasil and these ladies love a few beers and family-style sit-down. Me, too!

We were at the Lago de Abaeté, which holds a lot of history. It is the color of saffron, surrounded by sand (though it is freshwater), and was used for more than a century to wash clothes, but it is also believed to be the locus of magical energy to which Salvadorians attribute the unusual number of drownings.
