Wow. This was the best way to beat the post Asakusa Samba Carnaval blues and the rude shock of returning from the land of the GRES Alegria party people in Tokyo.

For everyone who wasn't there I'm sorry to say you missed a great weekend, a celebration of samba and all the good things in life (hint: food and drink!)

A big B61 thanks to all those who attended to make it a great weekend away, to Javier and Richie from King Parrot Bloco De Samba for being so welcoming and organising our fantastic practice on Saturday, and an extra special thanks to Uru for making it all happen!

See you all at Ritmo!
