Twenty years ago, Alex Grant witnessed the brutal murder of her mother. Ever since, she has been haunted by hallucinations and nightmares of the horrible crime and the killer. Now, her vividly surreal visions become terrifyingly and convincingly real as Louis Seagram is back and out for revenge. Dressed as the carnival clown Alex once knew him to be, Louis slowly torments her by playing a diabolical game. It’s a game of life or death – a game Louis intends to win.

The people from Bahia, are known in Brazil as those who most love parties. Almost every event is reason for a party, which should last as long as possible. Baianos do not deny this fame. The Brazilian carnival had strong influence from the Africans, All the samba schools in Rio must have a block composed only of baianas, women from Bahia. So, it is not a surprise that Salvador has one of the best carnivals in Brazil. According to Guinness, with 2,000,000 people (including 800,000 tourists), Salvador has the largest street carnival in the WORLD. While in Rio most of the carnival happens in ball-rooms and in the Sambadrome (which require people to pay to participate), in Salvador most events happen in the streets and beaches, and are free for all. As a consequence, the carnival in Salvador goes on, non-stop, for nearly ten days. Small groups called “blocos” pop up everywhere in the city, and they are soon followed by locals and tourists. A tradition of the carnival in Salvador are the “trios eletricos” (electric trio). Back in 1950, two persons, Dodo and Osmar (who today are legends of Brazilian carnival), put high power speakers on top of a Ford 1929 and drove around town inviting people to follow the rythm; it was a massive success. In 1951, the electric duo was joined by Temistocles Aragao, and the first Trio Eletrico was formed. Ever since, several trios were formed in Bahia, with much more sound power, on top of much bigger trucks; to follow a trio eletrico, just join the crowd, mind your ears, and let it go. Several of the most popular musicians in Brazil are from Bahia, and they do come back for carnival. So, you may come across free shows by Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Daniella Mercury, Gal Costa, Maria Betania and several other singers and groups; a sure presence is of Carlinhos Brown, Timbalada and the VoaDois.

MVI_1766 YMCA -Day 3 of Carnival Fantasy cruise.AVI

Customers who had taken a Carnival cruise prior to this one were invited to a function where refreshments were provided and some activities took place on the stage in the ship theater. It seems that the YMCA song/dance is one of the hallmarks of Carnival cruises. This dance on the theater stage was composed of all ages and the Carnival mascot.

You get to see this video on YouTube because I did not have the patience to upload any more videos to Flickr where the photos from this cruise are located. All future videos filmed by me will be here because too many of the Flickr videos did not make it through after waiting a long time and not being processed. The same is true for Webshots. Perhaps they were too large — whatever.
