Samba in a Shower

One of our prevalent memories of Rio, and indeed Brazil generally, remain the indefatigable rainfalls. But Rio people don´t let a bit of water get the better of them. Instead they brighten the mood with uplifting Samba and Bossa music. Outside. In the rain. This show took place in front of a bookshop one Sunday evening and was the perfect remedy for dampened spirits. The non self- conscious among the audience were dancing and singing along (not us, obviously, although there was a tapping of toes), and everyone had a total blast.
