Schooltime in Niteroi!
We arrived at the "Instituto La Salle - Ceplas" - a project for very young kids...
..a colorful welcome...
...the children prepared paper torches...
...the national anthem...
...and the rising of the flags...
...a bird of Peace for Brasil...
...the kids very gently touched the bird...
...and released the pigeon into the sky....
...before the final take-off the bird had to reccover a bit...
...time for fun...
...cheerfully the kids passed the torch...
...great kids - great teachers...
...the school surprised us with a Run downhill - it was extremely steep!
...a final stampede...
...and back in the school...
Thank you for the heartfelt meeting!
