Summer Food

Summer Food 

By Marcella Leal

The summer in my country and especially in my family is very special and wished.
This time of the year is when my entire family meets to travel all together. It's literally together because we take our cars and trucks and go down to the beach.
We share a simple house there where we use to be very happy and have a wonderful time.
Iguape, the beach's city, is not so big and don't have many things to do, but the importants thing is that we are all together one more time.
A big tradition, as always, is eat a lot. In these summer trips we use to eat a lot of barbecue.
The barbecue there is really different from here. It's really good.
After the barbecue, which is common to happen when we get back from the beach, we just relax in our hammocks and mattresses spread on the floor; The beds are not enough because we are like 50 people.
At night we go to downtown and hang out at the park; Have ice cream and "churros". We also buy little souvenirs and the kids play in the church's big patio.
That is really a good memory.
