Sights of Curvelo (Part One)

By Thursday I was starting to get my sense of humor back. It came slowly. But one thing I did was take some pictures of funny things I saw around Curvelo, MG. This was therapeutic.

First on our list is the following sign.

Next up, the logo of a local supermarket:

Here is a closer look:

While it is not uncommon to have religious symbols on commercial buildings here in Brazil, I have never seen a Jesus that looks quite so...threatening.

Next is a school that calls itself "Darwin"

Their motto is "The Evolution of Education". That sounds a lot better than "Survival of the Fittest".
