Seems like eternity since we left our home to start this family adventure. My youngest daughter, Erin, expressed how she misses her bed and her stuff toys. I miss everything in Grand Lancy but the thought of visiting countries as a family truly excites me.
We have reserved our accommodations till the end of the month thru AirBnB and two hotels. Three down and 3 to go.

Breakfast in the Pousada Pouso Feliz consisted of bread, tapioca pancake, cheese, ham, cakes, guava juice and coffee.Issues
Our main concern is the phone. Before departure, I have cancelled my phone subscription. Carlo read about TextNow and using WhatsApp in a blog here. Perhaps I have got too excited and didn’t read everything well. TextNow didn’t function well in my phone, lost half of my chats/messages in WhatsApp trying to reinstall it so that I can use both application. Thankfully, Carlo’s attempt didn’t work out and he was able to keep all his chats/msg. His phone subscription is until the end of the month.
Phoning our two hosts is kinda tricky, not adding them in our WhatsApp contact made us used Carlo’s phone 4g and incurred charges along the way. Yes, I should have done that at home.
Uber is not in our phone app. We were already in Brazil when I decided to download it. Aside from bom dia and obrigado, our portuguese knowledge is nul. Nevertheless, this did not hinder the people whom we asked directions. Once, a man said "perigoso" as I asked him how to go to a grocery store. I took it that walking alone is dangerous because afterwards he made a hand gesture but seeing Carlo afterwards he said it would be okay to walk. Glad to be with our main man. Our baggages survived the first two destinations. Aside from the missing name tags of the adults' luggages and Erin's stomach trouble, everyone and everything's doing alright. 
Keep calm and smile.

Just keep in mind that it won’t be perfect as you planned but just take the best out of it and you’ll be fine😊
This things happens. Even all is well planned and prepared there’s always some things that you can say,ah I should have done this and that. Next time it will be as good as perfect. It makes me excited seeing your next post and next adventures destinations. Enjoy and take care of each and everyone!

“Remembe, that life’s greatest lesson are usually learned at the worst time from the worst mistake. Thought, yours are not really the worst one. Anyway, have fun with your travelling and see you next year.
