Brazil Bonanza: Sao Paulo

One thing I'll say about Brazil is that it's too much fun to take time out for updating a blog :-) So here comes all of Brazil, all at once, starting with Sao Paulo:

Clocking in at 19 million people, it's a big, urban place. Not unlike NYC...

And some perfectly dreadful weather for a couple of days

Finally sunshine for a visit to the saturday morning market

Loads of exotic, mysterious fruits...

Time for lunch: Deep fried pancakes with loads of yummy sauces

Anthony Gormley has brought his show to Sao Paulo (all you New Yorkers will remember the Madison Park installation)

I also happened to be in town the same weekend as the Gay Pride:

Some random faces and craziness... Particular crazy is the guy wearing an argentina shirt in Brazil ;-)

Jack Sparrow made an appearance...

Get an eyeful with this VIDEO (please note NSFW)

Dennes got us an action packed day, as we ended that same saturday with a (free) Maceo Parker gig in the park.

The boys at the gig...
