In a previous post we said how the entire town comes out to play soccer, foot volley, and dodgeball on the beach at low tide. The other night the boys were playing catch with a football and it caught the attention of most everyone so Carson and Brad showed some of the boys how to throw it. It was pretty funny watching them throw the ball...probably as funny as it is for them to watch us play soccer. After they got the hang of throwing the ball they wanted to play a real game so Brad, Carson and Derek organized a game of two-hand touch football on the beach. Brad did his best to explain the rules in Portuguese and they had to keep teaching the rules after every play when they would do something illegal. They kept wanting to throw the ball when they were about to be tagged. In the end it was fun...and funny, and the scenery and atmosphere couldn’t have been more beautiful.
What a great experience for the family. Always fun to mix it up with the locals.
