Hello everyone. Last weekend we went away for a few days to rest and relax as a family as often we do not get the opportunity to do that. We went to a place called Serra do CipĆ³ which is a nature reserve about 2 hours drive away from Belo Horizonte. It has over 200 waterfalls amongst beautiful scenery. On one occasion, Gideon and Dave went on a river walk and discovered many waterfalls and pools. The following day Josiah and Dave went canoeing on a quiet piece of river where they found some fresh-water turtles and animals called capybara.
We stayed in a place called a pousada which is like a bed and breakfast but with chalets. A great time was had by all.

So glad you were able to get away together. Pics are fantastic. Jen fell in love with Capybaras when she saw them at a wildlife park (many years ago!).

Love M and R
