Cemitério Israelita do Butantã on Avenida Engenheiro Heitor Eiras Garcia, at Jardim Educandário. 
I guess the tombs look East towards Jerusalem... 
a beautiful group of cypresses (ciprestes)...

view from the air: Jewish Cemetery on Av.Eng.Heitor Antonio Eiras Garcia. 

a little further down the road from the Jewish Cemetery you'll find a great expanse of land where they built a huge school for the down & trodden in 1923. It's managed by Liga Solidária which is a branch off the Catholic Ladies' League.

Avenida Engenheiro Heitor Antonio Eiras Garcia goes on and on... 
all the way to Jardim Educandário.
a little graffitti... 
maybe to honour the Jewish Cemetery a little up the road they devised this Shalom Pizza... 
When one buys 2 large pizzas one'll get 1 Itubaina for free. What a bargain! In case you'll get greedier and buy 3 large pizzas you'll get a free Coca Cola... they do not specify whether it's a large Coke or just a standard one.

the vastness of Liga Solidaria's Educandário Dom Duarte's compound.
Rute showing a flower or something... that quaint little house must belong to Educandário's employees.

Rio Pequeno denizen goes on holidays to Lençois Paulista-SP

João Luiz, a youngster from Rio Pequeno had a hard 2018, full on with studying mathematics and other subjects for his 2nd year at Colegio (Senior High School) so his aunties Lucia & Rute plus uncle Fernando thought it would be a good idea for João to spend some time far away from São Paulo and off he went to Lençois Paulista-SP... 

João took a bus on at Barra Funda Bus Terminal on Saturday morning, 5 January 2019, and arrived in Lençois in the afternoon. On that same night they went to see 'Aquaman' at a Shopping Centre movie-house in Baurú-SP. 

On the Sunday, 6 January 2019, they all went on a cruise of Rio Tietê at Barra Bonita-SP... 

Davi Martins, Karol Oliveira, Gabriel Henrique, João Luiz, Rodrigo Brandão, Dayane Martins Brandão, Marta Martins, Lucas Brandão & Clara Brandão.
