Sightings

We went to Barra this past weekend - its a place close to here, a bit more suburban, known for it's beautiful beaches. So, yes, indeed, I have finally swum in Rio. The weather is generally better, although I haven't had an opportunity to swim again this week. I did buy a bikini, though, so that I don't look like a tourist. We'll see if I have the guts to wear it.

The other day when walking home, we spotted a little dog wearing four little leather slippers. Apparently the streets here require one to have foot protection. Funny that the dogs are wearing shoes but the people are wearing sandals.

We've been eating farmers market eggs, and about 90% of them seem to have two yolks. Does that mean healthy chickens will have twins or that farmers who sell at those markets are feeding their animals fertility drugs? Hm.
