Carnaval is Coming
Third stop on this year's Carnaval Circuit was the city's 43rd Municipal Costume Ball. Held a week before Carnaval officially begins, the Ball is a terrific event to which Everyone - that's everyone with a capital E - wears a costume. From simple to incredibly creative to group themes to costumes for which a gaggle of peacocks donated an inordinate amount of feathers, it's a feast for the eyes. Overall, the music was great, the costumes were fun, the people were animated, the dances were danced, the drinks were drank, and merriment was made. 
We ended up leaving at 3:30am ... it was only the intermission!!

Hmm... Dances were danced, drinks were drank(?),merriment was made.... Sounds like the cottage log book style! In any case, it seems that you and friends are off to a festive start to the Mardi Gras. As we have just had a large snow storm and are experiencing minus 20 celsius and strong winds, I think back to visiting Recife, Rio, etc. All that sun and heat!!! Wow!
Looks like a fabulous time...I'm jealous!
