Okay. So you want an excuse to take your new ride for a spin? How about taking a short trip out to Brusque? Roll down your windows and enjoy the wind in your hair on your way there. It's just 17 miles away. Sanctuary of Azambuja, Brusque Zoo-Botanical Park and Sao Luiz Gonzaga Church alone make the drive out here worthwhile.
