Farewell lunch

We had some delicious churrasco for lunch to end a great program and time here in Brazil! We learned a lot about alternative energies and Brazilian culture. We now have a new perspective on how things are done in other countries that will carry us through the rest of our studies and careers.

Thank you all for a wonderful experience!
