not Kansas


Finally, I think accomplished: google, internet access, and so forth.  and also a long airplane ride south and east.  We are actually two hours behind London -- so there.  Think on that -- Confuses me too.

Anyway the grandson is very very well, large and happy, no surprises there and enjoys eating and sleeping too.  Will make that toy make music sounds just about all you need to hear too.

Guess who he looks like,-- see below for answer.  Yes at times it is really a very strong resemblance.

 Both of us are very very pleased that he is happy with us, as Raleigh is social and comfortable with us playing and interacting with him and he with us.

We are staying in a historical residential district of Rio de Janeiro that has lots of restaurants, bars, little grocery and service type shops, cobble stone streets, trolly car tracks and is in a word quaint.  

A baby sitter allowed us to go out the first night in town and of course we did.  Very pleasant as you can imagine.  The food so far has been great.

I think I mentioned quaint.  The area is called Santa Teresa.  The trolly unfortunately no longer runs.
 It is also on the side of a mountain.  So going anywhere is a steep uphill or down hill walk
