the plants are shy!

When we went to Mario Cravo's sculpture park for the last time we found a patch of plants that close when you touch them and sat around trying to trick them for 10 minutes - then we somersaulted down the hill.

After being reassured that we would never be allowed to see Mario himself, some of the girls wandered back into his studio and we were privileged to listen while he talked about tasting and smelling and living Brasil. Certainly an artist who knows his fame, but it was an incredible experience all the same.
