sextas-feiras em rio (thursday in rio)



Copacabana, BRASIL-- our first night out in o brasil! it was funk/"hipy-hop" night at clandestino bar.


after watching indiana jones (with portuguese subtitles) we headed to copacabana with cariocas rosangela, bianca and daniel. it was a rainy night at 17 degrees but inside the club the dj residentes "dropped it like it´s hot!"


we had our strongest caipirinha (with fresh strawberries) and it took us three hours to finish half a glass. daniel was careful not to drink too much lest he lose his english proficiency. rosangela, with non-alcoholic sprite in hand, had the best moves of the night. and bianca showed us some mean forro steps which we miserably attempted to copy.

on the way home the cristo redentor greeted us again, this time bathed in fog and city lights.


day 3 in rio. super-legal!

Reese, is that a t-shirt you're wearing? Have you not learned from Chit? Hahaha

Guerers, I forwarded the first part of your text message to Che and Roch and their comments were:

Che: Let's fly to Rio now! =)

Roch: Wow, happy for J, at least she's getting the vaca of her life =) cool, sounds really exotic. (at press time, the married woman is strolling down the streets of Germany with her beau)

I know how hectic your social life must be, but keep on posting! And Reese, Jan, you have to learn how to make those caipirinhas, I'm going to need huge doses of those after 9 months ++ of alcohol-free existence.
