Day 17 - ICE CREAM

Today after class we went to THE 5TH BEST ICE CREAM SHOP in the world! ...according to National Geographic at least... It's called Helados Scannapieco. According to National Geographic Magazine, "This tiny, no-frills shop seems little changed from 1938, when Italian immigrants Andres and Josefina Scannapieco first opened the doors. Members of the Scannapieco clan still make ice cream the way the family have for 70 years. The menu runs 50 flavors deep, from chocolate and vanilla to other delights, such as durazno (peach), canela (cinnamon), lemon champagne, and caipirinha (a Brazilian cocktail made with cachaça and lime)." Mads got vanilla and Dulce de Leche Brownie. I got Oreo Crema and Dulce de Leche Brownie. It was super good and definitely worth the 30 minute walk. We started walking home on the search for Latisse for my Mom! 2 ATM trips later is was a SUCCESS! Then we walked to a bathing suit store that Marite's daughter suggested, since we're headed to Rio this weekend!!!! After quite the jaunt, we arrived and it was CLOSED! So, we headed home and no one was home. We did our homework and we're chilling and accidentally fell asleep before dinner!  We didn't eat till 10 because Marite had no food at the house and had to go to the store at 9! After a delicious meal, we brushed our teeth and went to bed!
