I'll miss fresh blended passionfruit juice, bananas on their home soil where they have at least twice as much flavor as here, warm water in the ocean, the sound of Portuguese, the faint, unrealistic hope that I might actually be able to speak it someday, Pao de queijo (cheesy bread, barbecued meat-on-the-street, strange birds, the hope of seeing monkeys in a local park, being mistaken for European (especially French ;-})<BR/><BR/>But while there I missed a lot of what you miss: especially toilets that flush paper (I only slipped up about three times!). And fresh non-fat milk. <BR/><BR/>I have enjoyed following your adventures. Keep sharing!
