Diary of an emigrant

Monday, January 29, 2007

We had an e-mail this weekend from my newly-married brother-in-law, Romulo. In it, he said that he and his wife were thoroughly enjoying their new life together and were getting used to living in their new house. The house (which Romulo built over the last two years), sits on the banks of a lake near the small town of Careiro do Castanho, and in his e-mail he said they were inspired every morning by the schools of pink dolphin playing in the lake, just outside their front window.

Thanks Romulo – this is a reminder of at least a part of why we’re returning to Brazil, and we’ll think of this every time we're having doubts about our decision!
