São José dos Campos, SP, Brazil - 1st February 2009

By: mizlilian

Hi Mom!

After a long rainy week, finally we had a beautiful sunny sunday... so Lilian took me and Robby to her favourite park in the city, named 'Vicentina Aranha'.

A overview of the park:

The park was created in 1924 to be an hospital for tuberculosis patients - São José dos Campos was known as a good place to treat this disease. In the 80's, they turned the hospital into a eldery shelter, till 2004, when it was closed and finally bought by Major's Bureau to became a park.

Is such a beautiful place, with trees, track for a walk, chapel... I loved it! Is a nice place to have a peaceful day and maybe a pic-nic!  :)

Here, me and Robby in front of the main pavillion:

We found a fountain, and we're anxious for some water - but the fountain was dry!  :o Anyway, is such a pretty fountain!  ;)

This a very interesting tree with such a different fruit. It's name in Portuguese is JACA, is a very common fruit in Brazil, but Lilian Told us she doesn't apreciate this fruit at all!
