Zero Zero and Exotic Plants












Boa noite~

On Saturday night following our day at the island we met up with one of our PUC friends, Filipe, and went out to a club called Zero Zero (00). It was a very high end club but we all had so much fun--we ended our nights around 4 in the morning! Dancing was fantastic and we danced our hearts out that night. I think Marianne and Jen were the star dancers of the night. The boys attempted to practice their Portuguese as they met many beautiful girls at the club.

The following day we went to see Dr. Ghavami and tour the Jardim Botanical Gardens, which are located right in his neighborhood. Since Dr. Ghavami is so knowledgeable we learned a lot about each and every plant in the gardens, especially the bamboo. I could not finish the entire gardens tour so Marianne, Jen, and I sat at the cafe and had some pao de queijo and pao de batata to revive ourselves for the rest of the night. I bought an Acai berry necklace from the Jardim Botanical shop to support their efforts of conserving and educating the world about the importance of plants!

Tchau, tchau!
