Sunday 23rd
of March. Work began at 9AM, at 9.30 is facial painting time, so Nonna and I
are allowed to paint butterflies, flowers and spiders on children’s cheeks and
arms. Lunch break at 11 AM followed by a very necessary nap. Back to work at
2.30 PM, Nonna took over the bingo while I sharpened the colour pencils for the
children. Samba school for kids as a mascot, and a bit more posing and hugging
once again (still as a mascot), dinner and (soya) ice cream (because it’s
Sunday!), photo session (as a mascot) for children with professional
photographers, competition time for children, samba carnival for children (once
again as a mascot) while dancing and shaking a tambourine, the word hunt around the boat, amazing
race, and a quiz for children over 10. Cleaning up all the mess in all the
rooms, locking up for the night.
Tonight we
again went with Nonna and looked at the Brazilian samba show. At the show
tonight there was an ice-hockey team of 14 year old boys coming back from some
training camp from Sweden, and the boys went completely crazy when they saw all
the beautiful Brazilian ladies! (They had probably never seen a woman live in
so little clothes, except maybe their mother in the sauna…) The Brazilians took
all the attention in advantage and it was a really amusing scene.
After the
show Nonna and I went to her cabin and hung out for a while. But she was more
tired than me, so she went to bed at 2 AM and I went back to the club and continued
the party dancing with my new Brazilian friends until 4 AM. Working on a boat
is hard work, at least for your health!
Here are a
few more pictures I took of the Brazilian dancers
