Ok... I will be at the Sofitel Rio Palace in Copacabana. I arrive Sunday 22 on UA 991.

PIB!!! Party in Brazil.

My first real time in Rio, too bad its for business though. I was in Rio once, but only for like 4 hours, and flew back to SP.

Where are the Caipirinhas

A funny thing with languages.... Caipirinha is made out of a liquor called Cacaca (pronounced kashasa) or also known as "pinga". In most of Spanish speaking South America "pinga" is a very bad word for the male reproductive organ!!

Here is page about Cacaca:
