Sights in the city

Its hard to fully describe what it feels like, looks like, and smells like, to walk the streets of Recife, but here are a few glimpses I captured in center city this week after visiting some families in the slums.

 cooking pots for sale

 Coconut water

...we stopped to get a corn dog at this little stand

 

 ...on the way back to the metro station

What do you need? An umbrella? A snack? Headphones? Potato chips? An ankle/wrist brace? Look no further....  :)

 Or maybe some tangerines...

 

 This Sunday I hosted two Canadian friends and a Brazilian for a Lancaster County meal. :)

  

We found this nice lil insect outside my apartment.
