We have tickets and a hotel!

Today we have reserved our tickets for the Samba Schools Parade and the hotel in Buzios!
Yey!!
We'll be going to the parade on Monday, Feb 15th, and the schools that will parade at this day are:
1. Mocidade (9pm)
2. Porto da Pedra (around 10:05pm and 10:22pm)
3. Portela (around 11:10pm and 23:44pm) - I support this school!!
4. Grande Rio (around 0:15am and 1:06am)
5. Vila Isabel (around 1:20am and 2:28am)
6. Mangueira (around 2:25am and 3:50am) - Marcos supports this one.

If we stay until the end of the parades (we don't need to) we'll probably watch the sun rising...

Now we have to start thinking about our costumes for Carnaval! hahahaha!

The hotel we'll be staying in Buzios is Pousada Le Deauville. It was very difficult to find a place to stay, especially because the place should accept dogs, once little Ping will be there with us. But fortunately we found this one, which seems to be ok. Let's hope for the best!

We are very excited because our dear friends are coming to stay with us! I'm sure we'll have a great time together!
