It’s hot and dry today. Already drunk litres of iced water.
The forecast temp was 38°C. It was hot this morning when I went out to pay the rent and that was about 9am. I haven’t been out the door since.
I have to go to work at 3:30, so I’ll find out how hot it is then. I’m not in a hurry to find out. Even the fan is blowing hot air.
Seven days off work. The benefits of carnival. The winner for this year was announced yesterday, Villa Isabel.

So now it’s all over for another year. Brazilians can go back to work and school.
Me too.
I am sorely tempted to go to Brazeiro (BBQ restaurant) after class and enjoy the airconditioning, the food and the beer while I watch my soap operas.
Later…. not. Only tomorrow.
Brazilian soap uproars. Hmmm. Is there a Brazilian version of Crossroads or Coronation Street? I doubt if Ena Sharples would enjoy carnival.

>Rom, she probably wouldn’t. My Mum was a Coronation St fan. Quite frankly most Brazilian soaps are trash, there happens to be two at the moment I like. Rarely they coincide like that. One is a period drama, turn of the 19th century, and the other is a police drama about people smuggling between Brazil and Turkey, but the usual run of the mill social bullshit ones, I can’t stand them.
