Rio, the city that just loves to party

The first thing that strikes you about the Rio night life is that it is everywhere. From people juggling and doing performing arts on the street (or in this case, the road) …



… to huge random parties happening in the footpaths, where the dancing and noise in the restaurants spill out over into the sidewalk …



… to people just dancing and eating in parks at 2am in the morning – and – in case you tried to get to sleep – there were people playing drums in the streets for no apparent reason …



… at about 2:30am I began to get hungry. These little sausage shops are everywhere (but aren’t very good – the meat was cold! Ugh.)



For the more refined, there are samba shows with dancing girls (And guys) in beautiful costumes …



Or a walk along Copacabana beach at night!
