A Matter of Perspective
Brazil is very different from the US. How different, you ask?
Let me tell you...
Because we are closer to the equator, the moon is closer. A LOT closer. So close we can reach out and grab it. It is also quite a bit smaller than I had imagined.
Also due to our location, normal-sized water bottles don't cut it. The bigger the better.
Brazilians work hard and play hard. Hence, toys must be supersized.
Talk back to the missionary: Share your perspective in the comments section.
Thanks to my friends Teófilo and Séfora for allowing me to share with you their creativity.

There are a couple places near us where one gets that impression because of the complete lack of interfering lights from "civilization". Breathtaking.

In all seriousness- my first mission trip to Manaus in 1995 we were building a church building and it felt like the sky was just a few feet over my head. It was an odd feeling. Hot too. :)>+ I miss Brasil! Estou com muitas saudades do Brasil!!!!
