Last week Diálogo offered the opportunity to go to a production of Balé Folclórico, or folk dancing in the neighborhood of Pelourinho. Unfortunately, photography was not permitted, but the show was spectacular! It featured several traditional African and African-Brazilian dances, complete with live music and fantastic costumes. The dancers were so amazing and I was completely awestruck! I wish I could have taken some photos.

After the show we went to this bar:
to have some of these:
Caipirinhas! It is a very refreshing Brazilian drink made with alcohol distilled from sugarcane. I find them to be a little too sweet, but super delicious nonetheless!
Os Ricardos... These are the two Richards. They are both from the German-speaking part of Switzerland and didn't know each other before arriving in Brazil.
Oh dear...
What a fun night!
