I had to take an Uber into the city on Friday to pick up the rent from an ATM. We use Bradesco Bank, or as we call it Brad’s, and while I was there I came across a funky little street market spilling out from a covered alley.
Naturally I had left my camera at home, my Lumix GX9 that I bought in Scotland in October.
So I had to use my iPhone 12 mini. I don’t like using an iPhone camera as I find it clunky where I can compose and shoot easily with a dedicated camera.
On my ancient as it were phone the lens streaks and zooming is horrible but at least I had a camera with me.
We are supposed to move into a one bedroom apartment in this complex where we are staying with Christelle temporarily. It’s $1250 for the month including utilities and it looks like it could be in Florida with maintenance and cleaning crews everywhere and all modern conveniences.
So far if they spoke Spanish I’d put Brasilia on the top tier of livable places we’ve visited but we haven’t started exploring properly. Layne went to explore a shopping mall with Christelle on a rainy Saturday afternoon and said she found a Sam’s Club. The last Costco type store we saw (PriceSmart) was in Cali Colombia.
I think Rusty will be happy to stay put till January 7th. He’s moving faster than I can photograph him in this cool climate.
Rain is in the forecast for the coming week but I want to get out and see what I can find in Brasilia with my camera. Monday should be moving day and Tuesday should be GANNET2 update day.
We had a cheese pizza with cashews of all things one day. Slightly sweet slightly odd but not bad at all.
Happy Sunday from the very ambrosia Federal District. Not tourist list of must visit cities. Cheers from Team Lost.

The best camera is the one you have with you! Regardless of whether it's a Lumix or an iPhone.
Good luck with your Van upgrades. I am sure everything will work out fine.
