Trip to the highest point: Pico do Papagaio

After our afternoon of surverying and interviewing we had lunch back at the hotel. Later we left the hotel in four wheel drive vehicles to see some coffee and banana growers. We then headed for the highest point in Pernambuco, Pico de Papagaio. It was quite the beautiful scene. An amazing sunset drifiting over the mountains in the distance.
I also enjoyed seeing the coffee and banana fields. We saw a pretty big cave and large cactuses. The views were also amazing. I ended up buying four bags of coffee from the family that owned the land and many others did the same.

The walls were incredible. The time and energy it must of took to build these wonderful walls is staggering. Look at the road also.

    When you are bаking bread, you can raise the bread
    dough in the cold оven аnd then just turn on thе oven to the corгect tеmρeratuгe onсe the bread іs rаised.
    I ԁon't like pizza sauces, so I opt to use two cans of diced tomatoes as the first layer-one can of plain and the other of Italian.
