The last two weekends, I've had the opportunity to see a little more of Belém and get out of our little bubble that is AVA. Last weekend, one of our wonderful staff members took my roommate and I to a tourist place with a bird and butterfly exhibit that also had a Brazilian naval history museum. It was nice to play tourist and get off of campus. A day before that I took some pictures of the sunset from the upstairs neighbors' apartment. (All we can see from our windows are the roofs of the buildings next door.)
The following are some pictures from our trip to the exhibit and museum.

| Bel is amazing! She takes care of us gringas! |

| Apparently iguanas are known to be mean...everyone gave this guy a wide berth as they passed him. |
We had a lot of fun, but it was hot and the sweating was rolling down our backs. Getting back to our air conditioned bedrooms for a nap was wonderful, too!
