Got there under rain! Almost got late, São Paulo traffic is lame!!! Anyway, huge huge line outside the Consulate, but since we had our appointment schedule, we just went to the gate and gave my name... the officials let us in and we went to a nice room to wait. There we got a number - even though we were the only ones in the room  - and waited 'till a lady called us. She asked me all our docs and didn't keep half of it!!!  Then she told us to go pay and get back to wait because the Consul would come to talk to us in person. After paying, we waited a little while and this very smiling lady called us by our names. We went to the window and she greeted us and was a very nice conversation! Asked my husband some questions about being here in Brazil and told us we should wait for their considerations, though every document was correct and she had to send it to the other immigration offices and etc... Bottomline: it was ok, nothing difficult, good treatment and all... after that, we went to the Morumbi Mall, which is very close to the Consulate, and had lunch at Applebees, had Starbucks (missing the US!  ) and bought ourselves some books - mostly travel books, hehehe! Came back home overnight and here we are now!
