Tomorrow, Fernanda will be at the Consulate in Rio for her Interview. Her plane just left Belo Horizonte and she should arrive about 5:30PM. We are both very anxious. Cannot wait for it to be over, resulting in our VISA! So please cross your fingers and wish us luck. We will be traveling together to our house in Houston, TX on March 26!!

Thanks for all your support here in the past. Hope to see you soon in the AOS forum!

Joey & Fernanda!
