First Post - On the eve of Carnaval















Lets Rock n Roll - Or better still LETS Frevo and Samba...

It¨s that time of year again - It¨s showtime!

Carnaval in Brazil gets underway tonight, signifying one non-stop party until Wednesday of next week. Its a bit late to join us now for the Worlds greatest street party, nevertheless, I will blog little tit bits for ya, as the week progresses.

Most of the worlds media are guilty of displaying the fabulous images of Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro and its resident samba schools. But when Brazilians want to party, when they want to experience an authentic carnaval , they come to Olinda and Recife, (Salvador has a great Carnaval too). It takes a whole year for Brazilians to prepare for Carnaval, but the Olinda version is certainly worth waiting for....

See ya, I have a party to attend...
