Day 1 - The Rainforest

When we arrived in Brazil we visited the Rainforest searching

for animals. As we approached the rainforest we heard

parrots squawking and Jaguars roaring as the sloth's played

in the undergrowth, with the bats

sleeping in the caves.

Day 1 - The Rainforest

The jaguar is the largest cat native to the western

hemisphere. The scientific name for a jaguar is

a Panteraonca.

Day 2 - Tribes

First of all, we went for a walk in the

Amazon rainforest. A few minutes

later, we discovered a tribe. It was

the Caboclos. They are very skilled

hunters and cooks. They are also

known for their fishing and small

farms.

Day 3 - Food and FestivalsThe capital of Brazil is Brasilia. Whilst in Brasilia we visited

The Carnival of Brazil. There were lots of floats and

thousands of people in fancy colourful costumes – it was fun!

Day 3 - Food and Festivals

We also went to a food festival and tasted one of Brazil’s best

dishes which is called feijoada.

For desert we had a Ice cream made of exotic tropical fruit.

Italian dishes are also found every were in Brazil.

Day 4 - Coffee PlantWhen we visited the local coffee plant we discovered that Hora de

Cafezinho means the coffee hour in Brazil.

It was only in 1727 that the first coffee bush was planted in Brazil. One

single coffee plant produces about 1 pound of coffee per year in Brazil.

Day 4 - Coffee Plant

After leaving the coffee plant we visited a local cafe and sat down and

tasted Brazil’s favourite coffee Cafezinho which is thick, sweet and usually

is served with cream or little milk.

We had a fantastic time in Brazil especially

when we visited and learnt about the coffee

plantation. We even managed to bring back

some souvenirs for our mums and dads.
