Xuxa

We went out for some coconut water to get hydrated, and refreshed. It was mid day, so super hot in the sun, but we found a really well shaded spot in Largo do Machado that had a bunch of coconut water vendors. It was so sweet and wonderful to get to drink the nectar. After that we started walking around Larangeiras neighborhood and found Xuxa's address pretty easily, and were pleasantly surprised to find out from the doorman he had just arrived home. He let us in, and we got a tour of his chic pad which was pretty impressive including 3 bathrooms and maid living area! We had a beer, visited, and made plans for this evening. On the way back to the hotel we ordered a huge bowl of Acai at Big Bi, and enjoyed it immensely while people watching. Here is a shot of Beto and Xuxa in his apartment.

 

We are now getting rested up for tonight's activities which is going to include Estacio de Sa samba school!
