Brazil Diary - Day 11
21-05-2006 (Sunday) We started our journey back to the hosts from the place of conference. We passed through the city called Ourofino which is named after a musician.

There was the giant statue of Ourofino at the entrance of the city on the main road and we had some pictures with that backdrop. All en route I could notice that there is greenery everywhere, the roads are well laid and most part is hilly terrain.
