I want to go to Pipa Beach. I want to eat delicious Brazilian food. Dad and I will have to put it on our list of things to do. Too bad about all the gringos.

Brazil is known for both delicious seafood and a large Japanese population. The fish here is undoubtedly fresher than in Iowa City, and there may even be more Japanese people (not that I've seen any, but I haven't seen any in Iowa either).
