Still wishing we had more flags around the city..

For years I´ve seen this volleyball court with the flag announcing a ìt´s-too-hot-to-practice-now`break....

Carioca classics, Part I - Acai and coxinha

For those who never tasted it, I know, I know... Acai doesn't look very appealing... But those who have tried it know what I'm talking about... I love this thing!! Acai is a northern Brazilian fruit that became very popular on the 90's as an energy drink... it's very popular, from the gym-goers to the trivial cariocas... The coxinha, "little chicken thigh" is a non-greasy shredded chicken snack...

Give them a try one day and you'll know what I'm talking about...
