More pictures from Rondônia
I added a link on the right to a site that's called "As linhas". There are beautiful pictures from the countryside of Rondônia.

Bread
I baked bread yesterday. I love the process of making bread - how the ingredients form a dough that you mix with you hands and how the yeast makes the dough grow into a delicious warm loaf. I mixed only a little oat in this one, that's why it's so white. Hubby has been asking for a sweeter (or "more Brazilian type") bread so I added sugar to the dough - he was so happy!

Lamarca is a landless movement's (called Liga dos Camponeses Pobres) settlement some three hours by bus from Jaru. There is a tiny school of less than 10 students (at the moment) for grades 1-4. The students are temporarily using one of the houses as a school building and they're hoping to get their new school built before the beginning of the next academic year that starts in February 2009.
