My last trip to Brazil was the same. I used a passport place in Houston. At the time, people in CA were getting 5 years, so needless to say, I wasn't too happy. I have two trips coming up about 4 months apart in a few months, and if I have to go to the expense and time to get two Brazilian visas, it will be my last trips unless I get $500 Biz class tickets, or they change their laws.
