Carnival in Brazil: Beija-Flor (Narrated in English) Part 1 of 2
Samba School: Beija-Flor de Nilópolis – February, 2005.
Part 1 of 2.
‘Beija Flor’ means ‘Humming Bird’ which is a beloved and omnipresent bird in the Rio region. The school is based outside of Rio (in a place called Nilopolis). However it is currently ranked the highest among all Rio samba schools. It has achieved the reputation of being the best school by a combination of outstanding and unparalleled artistic organizational management with a strong determination to win. It is the only school with a whole team of Carnival Designers (currently 5 of them) where as most other schools only have one. It imposes strict rules and has the highest expectations towards all of its parading members. It began its recent winning streak in 1998 and won again in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008. In the years it didn’t win it has come very close and competitive. It is well-known for its creative extravagance and powerful colors.
The highlight of Brazil Carnival is undoubtedly the Rio Samba Schools Parade, a totally unique event in the world.
The Rio Samba Parade is the review of a fierce competition between the Rio samba schools. The judges and spectators watch the principal parades in the Sambodromo which was especially built for this event.
The Samba Parade is something everybody should experience at least once in their life. The event is broadcast live to several countries.
The Rio Samba Parade is very distinctive from all other street parades held at some other places in the world. It is not a street happening where people move chaotically about as they like, but more of a highly orchestrated show of vast proportions. Every parader has a specific role and place according to his costume in a particular wing, of a particular section of the samba school he/she is parading in support of.
Each year each school chooses a different theme for the Samba Parade. It can be a celebration of a particular period, or, of famous figures of Brazilian history. It may highlight a special event or speak of anything that might move the spirit and imagination; like a special animal, or one of the elements; water or fire, etc. The school has to illustrate the chosen theme through all its work:
• the samba tunes, which are especially written for that year
• the richly decorated floats and costumes of their 3,000 to 5,000 parading members designed by the school’s Carnival Designer (the so called Carnavalesco).
The parade of every school is highly organized and designed. They line up in a unique way to present their pageant.
The costumes are extremely imaginative, colorful, elaborate and detailed. They are truly original, designed and made from scratch each year. They have mirrors, feathers, metallic cloth, silk and sometimes gems or coins. These costumes take months to make. The work starts roughly 8 months in advance.
You may think of the whole event as a tropical opera or rather like several operas happening on one night. It is beautiful to watch and the experience for the paraders themselves is so intense that the memories last for a lifetime.

Waiting for the 2010 Gualeguaychú Carnival: Pasistas & Batucadas
As in previous years, during Saturdays in January and February, and the first Saturday of March, the 2010 Gualeguaychu Carnival in Argentina will transmit the audience happiness and make participants and viewers become infected with the audacious rhythm of the “batucadas” and the sexy dancing of the main paraders (called “pasistas”), as they enjoy an unprecedented show. (This video is from the 2009 issue)
The significant size of the Gualeguaychú carnival stadium (the “Corsódromo”) has enabled the “comparsas” to enlarge their squads and the size of their floats, which are out of reach for any other carnival in Argentina.
This artistic display has been around for over twenty years and is considered one of the most important carnival parades on earth, along with the carnivals of Rio de Janeiro and Venice.

Samba School: Porto da Pedra – February, 2005.
Part 1 of 2.
Porto da Pedra was originally part of a soccer club established by a teen street gang. A relative new-comer both as a school and in the Special Group (only among the elite since 1995). It has achieved its quick success due to huge investments from its sponsors buying very well-known carnival designers from its competitors. It is based in in the suburbs of Niteroi, across the bay from Rio.

Carnival Dream December 3rd
Comment if you were on this cruise with us, and if you see yourself! 
A compilation of videos from my familys 9-day itinerary aboard Carnival Cruise Lines newest vessel, The Carnival Dream. It was the the Dreams first trip from its home port of Cape Canaveral, Florida. We left Thursday, December 3, 2009, and spent the next 2 days as Fun Days at Sea. December 6, our first port of call was Antigua and Barbuda, a British Leeward Island. December 7, we were at Tortola, a British Virgin Island. We spent December 8th on the US Virgin Island of St. Thomas. December 9, we glanced at San Juan, Puerto Rico, and December 10th, we shopped in the small island of Grand Turk.
The Carnival Dream was beautiful, I enjoyed every second of it, I highly recommend it.
