After all the walking yesterday I slept really well last night. This is our sea day to sail from Salvador to Buzios. Did some catchup blogging this morning (see prior posts). Today Joan did a needlepointing session and we attended another Veterans gathering to say good bye to some folks getting off the cruise in Rio. Panos Karon gave a nice presentation about his work spreading the joy of music to children in a number of third world countries. An obvious passion of his! As he will be leaving the ship soon, he gave his final after dinner concert in the Vista Lounge. Another great evening of classical music including several pieces from Chopin. Late afternoon had a good presentation on the beaches and sights of Rio. We just missed their big Carnivale celebration and apparently they really party with a section of the parade route with risers that hold over 70,000 spectators in one small section. Reported that over 1,000,000 people travel to Rio for this festival. We are looking forward to seeing this city in a few days. Tomorrow will be our stop in Buzios.
No pictures to share today.
