Arrival

I arrived in Parnaiba 10 days ago. Hot and dusty at dawn in the bus station. Quite a few of the roads have been asphalted since my last visit. The town is in the midst of electoral fever - the carros de som are blaring out the jingles of the various candidates. The countdown is on for October, but it looks like Wellington Dias may get re-elected as Governon on the 1st round. The elections will be quite a distraction to contend with as we go about promoting the programme.
