My Commentary: I went with my family to first visit a place named Refúgio das 7 Cachoeiras (Haven of the Seven Waterfalls) in São Luiz do Paraitinga and we found out that is a very relaxing place, in total contact with the nature and made specially to provide this kind of experience to the guests. After leaving there, we went to the urban area of São Luiz do Paraitinga and I took some pictures.
My Commentary: July 9th is the great day to commemorate the Paulista Revolution of 1932, when São Paulo stood up against a dictatorship which wanted to stop our progress. Nowadays it's a holiday and many towns commemorate it with parades. This year I went to Cruzeiro because this town is considered the Capital of the Revolution of 1932 and it's located somehow near me here in Pindamonhangaba.
