This is the road to my father-in-law farm, on Teixeira Soares, a little city 150km from Curitiba, capital of Paraná state on south of Brazil.
Those pine trees are called Araucária and is the simbol tree of Paraná state.
That's the first of some photos of the same road the I'll post here. I hope you like it and if you do don't forget to visit the others.
