Back in Bahia!

We just had 2 wonderful weeks in Itacaré, Bahia. Why did we ever leave Bahia?

Our sunset spot in Itacaré. Our first night a guy was playing berimbau there. Sidney was so inspired he wanted his own picture like it. Check out his blog for that.

We visited a cacau farm/chocolate factory

Add sugar and you’re good to go!

Had a great Passover. Couldn’t find matzah, so we did it ourselves.

Happy Passover

We were joined for seder by our friend, Sarah, we met in Arraial, and Nitzan, a fellow capoeira student (from Israel).

Nitzan showed me how to make this the easiest Passover. We made tapioca “sandwiches”. You just put the powdered casava in the pan, add heat and toppings, fold and you have a kosher for passover meal!

And Easter.

Unlikely plant to find an egg under, but there it is!
