Twitter Tuesday: Using your Head, Jesus Pizza, Improvised Roller Coaster, and more…

Time for another Twitter Tuesday, with the best tweets culled from the Brazilian internet since last week.

And speaking of staying home…when the dollar is so high, many Brazilians look for creative alternatives to expensive trips to Disney. Like, for example…

Let’s finish things up with this beautiful picture and factoid from the Brazilian tourism agency:
