There are three ways to do things to improve the world, the right way, the wrong way and the Fraiburguese way which is similar to the right way but with much more emotions attached to it. As a proof of concept below is the 128 meters bridge that is really scary to pass through but seems to be very solid.

This picture was take in the city called Frey Rogério, which is next to Fraiburgo. This city is city is very special having a strong influence of the Japanese immigrants working with agriculture. I wonder how would that be during the rain season, must be dangerously exciting. In the next post I will show the amazing waterfall that comes 500 meters in the sequence of the river, which I believe is the the biggest waterfall we have in terms of length and volume of water. Here is the post with the pictures of the waterfall.
