| My dad is also in the process of buying an beach-side apartment in a scenic area in Bahia, Brasil.
Over view of the area ~
The apartment, which is still in construction for delivery August 2005, is to the left of the lighthouse, I believe. |

| Yeah, it does.
R$135,000 for a one bedroom suite.
70.2 meters squared, I think.
R$135,000 is the equivalent of US$45,685.279187817258883248730964467, or US$45,685.28 |

| I'm absolutely sure, a dollar is roughly R$3 and a pound is roughly US$1.5. |

| That's what I like to call "a crap economy."
A 2.0 Astra Sport is over R$40k, in a country where minimum wage is R$240 per month... |
