Hello!

We’re happy knowing that you have good memories about Panambi! Drink chimarrão, it’s very good for health! But do you have “erva” in your city?! hehehe….
I’m going to tell Doctor Emerson about what you said about his job! Good Luck for you with Obama, and for us too! hehehe…
Many kisses!

Hi Marineli e Maria Rita,

We still think about Panambi often! We still carry our bombas and cuyas but have not had much opportunity for chimarrão. The Doctor Emerson has done a mighty fine job on my teeth – they feel very healthy!

Hello Neena & Shreesh!!!

I hope you’re having a good time in Argentina. I wish a happy new year to you. Thanks for your visit to Panambi. It was really nice to meet you and I hope to see you sometime again. Maybe I’ll visit you in the US someday. Have a nice trip.

Hi Joan & David,

Thanks for the good wishes.

Good wishes to you this Christmas, I hope the Inn does well and the position of your savings is better in 2009. We are hoping the same as ours are about 25% below what we want them to be.

Nice to see the people in Panambi were so kind and happy.
We so enjoy traveling with you and learning about our neighbors.
We hope you have a grand Christmas at Dalva’s.

Business here is slow. We are in for a long struggle. My savings is
down 40%.

Hello Aai,
We are still in Brazil, visiting Rio de Janeiro. We were in Petropolis visiting Dalva’s husband, Luis, whom they are going to join in Jan next year.
Our next stop is a few days in Ouro Preto, which is about 7-8 hours bus journey from here. From there, we will return to Dalva’s house for Christmas and then onto Argentina.

Neena & Shreesh,
Nice to have news from you. We get a little worried when there are no updates from you for few days.
The community from Panambi appears to be very friendly and welcoming. It was nice of them to arrange a meeting to hear about your adventures during this long drive. Hope you will be able to maintain contact with them after your trip as well.
How is everything else going? Which is your next stop? Will it be in Argentina or still in Brazil? Vivekmama visited us this week along with his daughter. We had relaxed time with them. Monica has taken a break from the medical school and working on a research project. She will be back to school during next year.
