Arriving at the Brasilia Airport
We were Listed as the "International Orchestra" at the First Church we Played at in Brasilia
This was the First Baptist Church of Guará, a Suburb of Brasilia where we had Our First Concert
Brasilia is a Planned City so All the Intersections were Either Roundabouts or Perfectly Circular Clover Leaves
The Clove Leaves were Just to Perfect to be Real
Brasilia is the Capital of Brazil and the Suburbs Tend to be on the Poorer Side. This is One of the Streets in the Suburbs
