Just one of the natives


MUITO BRANCO!  (VERY WHITE)

I was adopted by a tribe of locals on the subway.  Carnaval is a costume event, all the time.  Carnaval is a singing and dancing event, all the time.  I am doing my best to use my English to Portuguese phrasebook to interact.  I have found everyone to be helpful and gracious.  I have been told by my fellow, British, travellers  that I have the whitest skin of anyone they´ve ever seen.  The @$#*&% BRITISH!  I do need to get to the beach, but I´ve been so busy.  Here´s another shot without me.



                                               Here are some additional costumed shots.



TELETUBBIES!!


Watch out Bridget!


Not Really sure what this outfit was.


Luis (in front) is a Brazilian who studied  in Canada.  He took us to a wonderful Bloco Party.


How you doin?


Luis is the man!

  1. Holy crap! Some of the guys on the metro have 8-pack abs. Don't worry, Jon, you fit right in. I am not sure I can count that picture of the sun and the moon, it's really hard to see the sun. Let's try again when I get there.
