Afternoon at the Indian Museum

After wrapping up at the American School, Joel and Gersion headed to the Indian Museum, where Partners outgoing president Tania works. He was shown around by Tania and the director of the museum. They then walked around Brasilia's center and snapped photos at some of the most popular sites. Early the next morning, Joel was off to the airport, sad to leave all his new friends in Brasilia but happy with his rich experience.
