She will be my "space shuttle"--bringing me books to read that I have left with her and picking up my trash (novels I have read and want to keep, guide books from Asia that I have used and will not need again until after I am back in Texas, etc.) and returning it to San Antonio so that I do not have to carry it through Argentina and Chile. 2) A young Brazilian English teacher, Wesler, whom I met last year in Brazil, will be in Rio during the days we are there and will spend time with us seeing the sights.
