BRAZIL CARNIVAL

Brazilian Carnival is the annual festival that almost didn’t happen this year and we would have missed the sexy – and naked – dancers that make the festival so colourful. Hitches, aside, the carnival still lived up to its phenomenal brand name.

Huffpost describes the carnival thus, “The mesmerising kaleidoscope of glittering costumes, opulent floats and sleek shimmering dancers saw tens of thousands of people at the Rio Sambadrome to cheer on their favourite samba schools and then letting their hair down at the parties that followed thereafter.”

Take a lot at the beauties and awesome display of colours at the festival and please be warned that there are NAKED dancers in the pictures. (Warning: Nudity in some photos)
