That is the question.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0Right now we are in the middle of trying to decide if we are going (and if it’s even possible)\u00a0to send our three kids to a Brazilian school for part of the day.\u00a0 Here are the pros & cons lists.<\/p>\n
Pros-\u00a0 we will not have to find childcare for our kids while we are in our class (learning Portuguese.); our kids will be exposed to Portuguese for four hours a day, \u00a0five days a week;\u00a0 they will get to play, swim, & learn with other children;\u00a0 we will get to meet more Brazilians; small class sizes; after the 1st month, tuition is free; it’s a private, christian school; the school day is only 4 hrs. a day<\/p>\n
Cons-\u00a0 being surround by Portuguese can be overwhelming;\u00a0 we need to find a dependable ride to & from school for the kids; we will have to buy uniforms for the kids; the 1st month is not free & it’s expensive!; we still need to do their American school studies<\/p>\n
Sooooo, we’ll see what works out.\u00a0 Probably the biggest factor is finding a ride for the kids.\u00a0 If we can’t find them a ride, then all the rest does not even matter.<\/p>\n
On another note, tomorrow (Aug. 4th) I am heading down to a part of town that I have only visited a couple of times.\u00a0 A friend of mine is going to take me shopping so that I can begin to learn my way around this particular area.\u00a0 It is the area that I will most often frequent when we are living at PQQ.\u00a0 So now is a great chance to go there…when I don’t really need anything. \ud83d\ude09\u00a0 And I’m not in a hurry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0When we live at PQQ, we will most likely only come to town once a month or so.\u00a0 That means our time in town is precious and we won’t want to waste it.\u00a0 I figured if I learn the area now, I will do better when it’s time for me to ‘seriously’ shop there.\u00a0 I’m going to take my camera so I can hopefully capture some of the feel of the area…it’s a lot different…open markets with fruit, veggies, fish (they stink soooooooooo bad!) & more.\u00a0 Tomorrow will be a day filled with walking (carefully, so we don’t step in anything too gross), talking & shopping.\u00a0\u00a0 Hopefully I’ll have something fun to share with you…or at least a few good pic’s.\u00a0\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/p>\n
