I owe Jeffrey a word of thanks and if you are reading this page so do you. My cookies expired three days ago and I was locked out of uploading pictures to this page. I’m lease don’t ask my wife but I promise I have been a bear with a sore head.
See? I just uploaded a photo and with fewer hoops than I had to jump through before Jeffrey helped out. I used to get questions asking if I wanted to give emission. Now I get to upload the pictures with ease. Not necessarily great pictures, the one above shows a sliced cucumber appetizer we had for Laynes birthday lunch at La Cheminée in Brasilia. 
The main course was fish with a cheese sauce and as anyone knows you don’t pair fish with cheese except in South America quite often you do. It was supposed to be a blue cheese sauce but it was pretty mild and was more like a cream sauce. We lapped it up. Jeffrey’s expert help from Douth Florida also made this possible:
There you see my pudding, tropical fruit crisp with ice cream. I’ve known Jeffrey and his family for years since I started this page in 2007. I hate dealing with the internet and electrons and when things go wrong I have him on speed dial thank god. What took three days to drive me mad he fixed in 20 minutes and I still don’t know what he did. He has my password so if things get weird here you know it’s him not me. There is a price to pay for help and giving him access was it.
We had a French croissant for breakfast after I Ubered to L’Amour du Pain in Brasilia. I didn’t photograph the yoghurt we had for dinner. But what I did realize is I miss being able to put photos here. 
The result of my funk was I didn’t pick up my camera as I walked around like a sore headed bear. Nowhere to put my pictures I sobbed, so what’s the point? So…today I have no pictures. Oh the irony. 
Anyway things should proceed smoothly from here on out. It’s rainy season but the rain hasn’t been making itself known here. The idea is to go to the digital tower to get a scenic view of Brasilia so I expect rain will now be imminent. 
I have random photos like these flip flops for sake at Carrefour supermarket. They call themHawaiians and they don’t sell Crocs, probably because Brazilians tend to be fashion conscious. I’m still using Crocs I bought in Colombia, poor me. 
From the random picture department above GANNET2 parked on the street in Ushuaia, Christmas 2024. Below a traffic jam on the road to Brazil on the Peruvian side of the border near Mazuko:
Can you sense we miss the road? Below buying lunch on Isla Chiloé, Chilean Patagonia a year ago. We’re headed back next month we hope.
I think this one is Colombia , a mobile juicer. No idea why it cropped up but here it is.
Barichara Colombia, the classic South American street scene:
Brazilian road train December 2nd on our way here. We’d stopped to let Rusty sit in the grass for a break under the trees.
He loves apartment living but I wonder if he too isn’t getting bored. Probably not.
By the dawn’s early light :
Home sweet home. It hasn’t helped that Rusty likes 4am walks. I am less keen as I like sleeping at night in retirement.
Happy Sunday. Mines pretty good. Thank you Jeffrey.
