Balloons
Brazilians love their balloons. When we did our back-to-school welcome this year, I asked a Brazilian who is very artistic to "take care of it" for me. I had the idea to make the school look really inviting to parents and students. She ended up lining the walkways with hundreds of balloons. When girls have birthday parties or any other celebration (sometimes guys too) you can be sure that balloons like the picture above will be a part of the celebration. This picture was actually taken at Hopi Hari a few months ago. Come to think of it, if you ever find yourself lost in a place where there are ballons like this, and fireworks, and loud music, and meat, and beer, and people wearing tight clothes, you don't even have to ask where you are. You'll know you're in Brazil.
