Christmas time and New Years Eve !!! still Rio de Janeiro


My Brasilian Christmas with my Brasilian "Christmas' family"
OBRIGADA PELA ESTA NOITE E OUTROS DIAS !!!


Bruna ,Bia- her sister - with their boyfriends and parents ;))



around the table


let's eat ;))))



this is Wigilia in Brasil



HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone - straight from beach in Rio de Janeiro !!!
alredy after midnight here.. around 3am in Poland ..;PP



Brasilian tradition



and another- to leave food for the souls on the beach... influence of the African's religions from the times of slavery



time to open Champagne !!!!



3... 2... 1.....yeah !!!!



another tradition - people in white clothes on the beach...



before midnight ....



let's celebrate on the beach...



everyone goes there.. and it is sooo white...


The Christmas in Brasil is completely different than in Poland...
maybe because of the fact that the climate is different and it is hot here.. and it was strange for me not to freeze, but go to sunbath on the beach....

about the Natal .. Christmas Eve ...
people meet in someone's house , but it is more like celebrating birthday ...
people listen to music... and it is not christmas music .. but normal..
drinking and eating aperitivos ....
and then when everyone is already and a bit of time passed .. people eat ...and the food is different... there is no trdition of 12 dishes.. there is normal dinner..more "celebrating sstyle'
we ate rice , turkey , other kinds of meet , codfish ( delicious !!!!) and then dessert ....ice creams, cakes.... niceeeee.... and soo good ..
then people talk , give presents to each other and around midnight - people leave...
there is nothing about all of these tradition we have in Poland...
and sometimes they celebrate aswell on 25th of December but not as we in Poland for 2 more days...

about New Years Eve..
most of the people spend New Years Eve on the beach..
wear white clothes.. threw away flowers to ocean..
make fireplace and leave food for the souls on the beach...
jump 3 waves after midnight for good luck..
dance and drink champagne on the beach.. it is the only alcohol which is allowed to take to the beach during thiat night...
this new years eve was soooo different, but it was also so niceeeee....
as I had a veryyyy good company as you can see on the pictures... ;)
