Japan in Amazon and Goiania

Day 11 + 12: (5-11-2008 & 6-11-2008)



Bom.. finally i left SP. although in the end I like SP but only for Butantan and Liberdade. butantan you already know, but i went to Liberdade yesterday. It was the little Tokyo of Sao Paulo and the place i was looking for. at least it was used to be the little Tokyo, because it was mainly resided by the Japanese immigrants. but now it´s kind of mix between Japanese, Chinese and Korean. anyway it was still really nice place to see and walk around. muito boa, and the food was good too. it was a self service, por quilo (typical brasil) but the a la carte was the one I was looking for. Lamen Especial. big bowl of ramen and tasted really good. and in Liberdade i finally found my second battery for my camera. i walked through the city center and no one had it. and here in Liberdade, they have it (of course they have it, because they have half of japan right here. after that i went to the cathedral of Sé the biggest of South America. and it was reallly big. never saw cathedrale at this propotion. magnificent and grand.

depois, it was time to leave SP. and had to goiania. a overnight bus ride. Took the executive but leito was almost the smae but cheaper. boa,.. for the next time. okay. Goiania is a big city.. similar to amsterdam (population wise) but at least it´s much smaller than SP. so far it´s really good here in Go, prices are cheaper compare to the biggest metrople in brasil and it´s more calm than RJ or SP... but it´s hot down here... i hope you guys don´t envy me becaues right now i could use some rain. anyway , today i found out that per quilo restaurant. especially brasilian food it´s really cheap. i should go eat there more. although as always it´s dominated by meat. good meat though, and they prepared them very well.
