Carnival Time!!!

Samba is everywhere!!!! Brazilian Carnival was in Vancouver this weekend, and of course i was there!!!! It was great to hear those samba rhythms once again! Not a huge band like Suffolk School, but more like the small band i played with in Liverpool - with trumpets and guitars as well! The costunes were awesome, and there were an array of dancers, as well as people doing capoeira - the Brazilian martial art that is a dance....so majestic and strong! As Mark was working I went with Anita - a friend from work - and we met Jackson (from work) there! We danced like i haven't danced in a long while! My knees ached on sunday!!!! I had to buy special flat shoes to make sure my feet survived, and even then they were sore!!!! It was an ace night, and makes me want to go to Rio for real Brazilian Carnival!!!!! Maybe next year!!! xxxx
