Sambadromo!

As you may or may not know, Brazilian Samba schools prepare all year for their performance in the Sambadromo.  Each school parades through a stadium built specifically for this function.  90,000 people are spectators.  I believe a similar number must be involved in the actual performance.  They are beautiful men and women dancing very well.  It is mind boggling sensory overload.  It makes the mummers look like a bunch of drunken cops and firefighters (well, yeah.).







Finally, I call this Snoop Jonny Jon on the Lapa steps.  Tchau.
