Day 7: August 17, 2014

Today we finally leave the state of Santa Catarina and head for the city of Curitiba in Parana.  Though not intended to be a long drive, about 5 hours, there was a large car accident along the way that delayed us for a number of hours.  Unfortunately for us, we didn’t have any games on the bus, so we did the best we could with what little entertainment we had (mostly just Elijah and I playing music).  Along the way we stopped at another churrascaria.  This particular churrascaria was much bigger and busier than the one we had gone to earlier in the trip.  After gorging ourselves on meat and driving a few more hours we finally arrived in Curitiba.  Instead of stopping at the hotel first, we directly to the main purpose of visiting Curitiba,  experiencing the Oscar Niemeyer Museum.  Oscar Niemeyer was a very famous Brazilian architect, responsible for numerous beautiful buildings.

After the museum, we retired to the hotel.  Arriving to the hotel somewhat late at night we ate dinner at a nearby mall.  Still very enjoyable however.
