still alive

hey there,
yes, as a matter of fact, I am still alive. I even survived the 30 hours bus ride from foz do iguaçu to belo horizonte, altough I am NOT a fan of bus trips. But our spiritual friend we visited in Argentina gave me a cristall stone to transfer all negative energies to in case I get sick during the journey. Up to now it worked out quite fine ;-)
So... no fotos yet, because they are or on my camera or on my usb-stick... you`ll have to wait until february. BUT, we´ve had a lot of fun the whole time.
Joinville - two days. One looking for a tourist office, ,the other on a kind of luxury ship together with 300 old ladies...
Florianopolis - sand, praia, sun and Anja got herself a boyfriend. German student from Bavaria, including the bavarian accent. But he is quite cute and VERY well educated so we had a quite nice time together.
@ Benni: perhaps some day you`re sandboard skills come close to mine!!! hehe.
Posadas *Argentina* - we visited a friend of Anjas, the social worker she worked with during her voluntary work in Posadas two years ago. Antonia now lives on a farm 6 km away from the next paved road. no running water, heavenly delicious organic food the whole day. We would have stayed a little longer, but with 38 degrees every day it wasn`t that funny during daytime
Foz do Iguaçu - as we already saw the water falls two years ago we only headed to the ITAIPU dam this time. The biggest, most potent etc. dam in the whole world. And the Brasilians are quite proud about it.
Belo Horizonte - we`ll do some daytrips to surrounding cities and gold mines and then go on to Ouro Preto before its back to Rio.
That`s for you to have a somehow overview. We have already travelled more than 2000 km and we are still not really done... next time with more information and the German speakers: my update will be reeeally long...
