All is well. Last few days have been brillant. Went to an Irish bar called Cochrans. I drank 13th dodgy Guinness over the space of the night. It was like your typical Irish pub, with all the stereotypical irish memorabilia but the cool thing about it was I was the only Irishman and the only gringo there. I was immersed in Brazilian conversations, Brazilin dancing and Brazilian drinks. Eusebius tried some of the booze and frowned, Brutos went nuts with delight and started chasing his tail and jumping up onto my lap!! He's havins such a wonderful time.
Following day went to a restaurant called Bar Brahma. They eat differently over her on a number of levels: alot of fresh fruit, rice and beans; in this bar everyone was dancing to Samba between courses and the beer was constantly flowing (gelado: cold). It was great, we were in there for 4/5 hours I got to see a lot of people I had't seen in along time: Mad Jap, NASDQ, the beautiful Marcela and much much more. I've got some cool photos and some cool clips on the camcorder, I'll try get the snaps up as soon as I can. I think it was our favourite experience so far.
Gotta run. I'm getting called to eat some food and the dogs are barking. There getting excited we're going to a suprise party tonight.
Started my first Portugese lesson with the talented Christina. An excellent teacher. She is going to get me successfully to the finishing post. I'll be studying privately 4 days a week for an hour and a half per class. I used the cam corder for today's lesson and it worked fantastically. I'll definitely be using it again!
