Saturday morning shopping, May 8, 2010

We went grocery shopping this morning (5/8) and were going to use these carts, BUT the elevator was broken and the store is on the second floor!!  Since it was before 10am the mall elevator was only open for employees, so we abandoned the cars and walked up 2 flights of stairs to grocery shop.  The aisles are really narrow and many, not all, Brasilians are oblivious to others - much like in the states!!  My diet tonic water was on sale for 50 US cents per can.
After grocery shopping we went to the mall food court and had snacks and drinks.  Wem needed to make some phone calls, so I had to invent things to keep busy.  The can to the left is peach juice for the boys, flavored water for Wem and Sara and Zero for Gramps.  I used to be able to get diet Coke, but it is getting hard to find, even in the grocery store.  The plastic plates were used for chicken empanadas.
The food court has the movie theatre to one side.  Alice in Wonderland(1), How to Train Your Dragon (2), and Ironman 2 (3) were the three offerings for the weekend.  Sara was diverting the children while Wem was making phone calls about flights to Rio for May 20.  Show times didn't start until 14:15.
