Loran, our very good friend down in Phoenix, Arizona, was born in the United States. He lived in Brazil during his formative years from ages 11 to 19. Loran has a great love for Brazil and has numerous family members who live there permanently.
Loran visiting Brazil this past September / October.

Loran spells Brazil with an 's' as in Brasil. This is how Brazil is spelled in the Portuguese language.
It is very VERY HOT during September, in Phoenix, Arizona. In Brazil, September is in the early spring and the weather is (to quote Loran) gorgeous! Each year, to get a little respite from the Arizona heat, he goes South to Brazil for approximately one month.
Loran visits the city of Salvador, in the Brazilian State of Bahia.

Can you find Salvador on the above map? It is on the Eastern Coastline of Brazil. IF you're trying to find Salvador on your smart phone, it takes 'a little doing' to do so!
Loran was so kind as to send us the below photos taken during his recent visit.
Absolutely magnificent churches!
