It has been a while, now time to catch up. One of my favorite NYC festivals is on Labor Day weekend. Sunday is a big Brazilian Day event , and this year , for the second time, there is an event on Saturday, like a warm up for Brazilian day. It is in fact more of a spiritual cleansing called a Lavagem on 46th Street, aka Little Brazil. The MC was Carlinhos Brown, my favorite Brazilian entertainer, ever!
I was lucky to go to both and take a few photos.The organizers even gave a link to my Flickr streams from 2008 and 2009. Here is a link to the event page organised by Silvana Magda: http://www.lavagemdarua46ny.com/main/index.html
