Tim and Buddy had a great vacation! They went to Brazil, and their first stop was Sao Paulo. Sao Paulo is a huge city. It reminded me of Toronto in some ways, with more street art.
On Sundays in the summer, the city closes down a main avenue for people to run, bike, watch performers, etc. This huge rubber duck was in the middle of the street.
We really enjoyed the Mercado Municipal Market. It was bustling around lunch time.
There were so many spices, nuts, and fruits at the market. We bought almost one of each of everything pictured here and ate it at our AirBnB condo throughout our stay.
Sao Paulo is home to the second largest population of Italians outside of Italy. As a result, Italian fare is abundant. Mmm...mortadella!
Sao Paulo is also home to the second largest Japanese population outside of Japan. This is Japan Town.
We ate lots of gelato on our trip to stay cool. Bacio di Latte was our favourite!
Buddy and Tim horsing (or elephanting) around!
We were extremely satisfied with our AirBnB place. It was a duplex condo in Jardim Paulista.
Apparently, eating pizza is a very Sao Paulo thing to do on a Sunday night. We ordered in and watched the Raptors game. Back home, our team was on a winning streak and we didn't want to miss out!
