Our Minister of Latin American Affairs had a weekend to himself and spent time at Rio's famed Copacabana Beach. A traditional fireworks show was the highlight of the New Years Eve celebrations. Over a million locals crowded onto the sand, stretching from one end to the other, gazing skyward as the spectacular show lit up the night skies.
The Minister was hosting a group of friends from Belo Horizonte and Santos who wanted to see the show. He had rented a house for the long weekend and it all worked out to perfection. Today, Monday, it was back to work. Pictures will be forth coming but we've heard certain Facebook pages feature many a New Years Eve foto.
Buon Anno
