Copacabana Palace, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Wednesday - Evening

Lovely Rio overcast?
Say it ain't so. The clouds have passed!
It's cooler once the sun goes down,
But who cares, in a party town?

The night's made for music and fun and romance,
So warm up your booty buddy beauty body with a samba dance!

Copacabana Palace - Rooms (Wed Evening)

[identity profile] fh-creepies.livejournal.com 2012-02-22 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
The deluxe beach view rooms (http://www.copacabanapalace.com/web/orio/deluxe_beach_view_rooms.jsp) have stunning views of the world-famous Copacabana Beach and some feature Juliet-style balconies. All have king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms which feature a bath with shower, air conditioning and high-speed internet for those students who would get twitchy without it. Peter.

Luke had listened to Kate and stopped drinking because that wouldn't solve his problems. He just didn't start listening until a couple hours later and he was more than a little drunk.

It took a couple tries for him to actually get the room door open but he managed it and wandered into the room as quietly as he could. With no shirt on. Tony's fault.

By that time, Percy was already asleep. He wasn't a heavy sleeper so he could hear Luke coming in and he sat up to grouchily yell at him when he saw what he was wearing. Now, he was grouchy and a little warm.

"What the heck's wrong with you?" he asked crankily.

The good news was that Dave wasn't seriously injured. His shoulder was merely impinged, mostly from all the paddling he had been doing on the surfboard while having poor stabilizing muscles, apparently.

The bad news was that this meant his shoulder was throbbing a little when he wasn't doing anything and hurting a lot when he actually used it. Even worse was the fact that the prescribed treatment was to keep it mobile, but not so mobile that he was in a lot of pain. So, basically, trial and error.

He was pretty sure he was just going to mark down 'surfing' as something he would never try again.

Copacabana Palace - Pool (Wed Evening)

Relax at the pool: The magnificent swimming pool (http://www.copacabanapalace.com/web/orio/swimming_pool.jsp) at the Copacabana Palace has long drawn stars and royalty alike to sunbathe, swim and socialize. Everyone from Gordon Gartrell to Griffin Silver has been seen soaking up the sun around the Copacabana pool, which is open 24 hours a day.

Ender. Pool. Night time.

It was getting to be a thing, even if it was still busier than he'd like.

It was probably best for pale redheads to stay out of the sun, so Ryan was taking advantage of the evening hours to enjoy the pool.

She'd been steadily getting stronger since feeling so miserable on Sunday. Perhaps tomorrow she would get to do a lot more than just resting.

Copacabana Palace - Bar do Copa (Wed Evening)

This hedonists' heaven (http://www.copacabanapalace.com/web/orio/bar_do_copa.jsp) by the celebrated Copacabana Palace pool is Rio's coolest place to see and be seen. Join the local style setters, step onto the golden floor and let it lead you into a sizzling space where 10,000 fibre-optic lights shimmer like stars in a velvet-black night sky.

Then have a Heineken and some beer-nuts. (Unless you're under 18. Then no beer-nuts for you.)

After getting back from her latest adventure, Jaye really, really needed to be somewhere civilized. And bird free. With alcohol.

It was National Margarita Day in another country, but she was celebrating with one anyway. Try and tell her she couldn't. Just try.

Guess who was eighteen? Puck was eighteen. Puck was almost nineteen, actually, and as a result he was at the bar tonight, a beer in hand and several more dancing through his head.

Jeremy? Totally here in a stylish suit, and a delicious drink in his hand.

... He had an excellent fake ID.

This place was gorgeous. Quinn didn't have a fake ID, but an older boyfriend was almost as good. She was eyed the local girls as she watched the dance floor, trying to decide if her outfit measured up.

After the partying all night for the first three nights of the trip, Seifer decided to stick close to the hotel tonight.

Especially since he still wasn't sure who he went home with last night. It had been fun though, at least that was he was assuming from the amount of glitter on him still.

Kate's ID said she hadn't been born yet. That was a problem.

She was on soda unless she could charm her way into the good graces of either a bartender. That was probably unlikely, given he wasn't exactly know for charm.

With the way Bruce was treating the week, this seemed like the perfect place to get out for the night and hold a half-empty drink while maybe legitimately partying.

That was a vaguely insane sentence, yes. Such was Rio.

Hanna's I.D. claimed she was 21. It must have been convincing, because there she was at the bar, drinking something alcoholic with a little umbrella in it.

She was so ready to just dance and have a good time tonight.

Stacey had had a good date today, and she was more than happy to get out and hang out with people tonight. It didn't even bother her that she couldn't drink, since she'd die if she did. No, not really.

She got a nice diabetes-friendly drink and tried not to tap her foot too obnoxiously to the music.

These days Cara herself wasn't entirely sure how old she actually was, and she didn't have real or fake ID in any case, but she'd been over eighteen at one point and was able to convince the bartender to give her a drink.

It probably helped that they hadn't exactly been looking at her face tonight.

Rio de Janeiro - Rio Scenarium (Wed Evening)

[identity profile] fh-creepies.livejournal.com 2012-02-22 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Located in a renovated warehouse in the edge of Lapa, Rio Scenarium (http://www.rio-carnival.net/Store/ToursDetails.aspx?cod=283) is an antique store-gone-bar-night club. All the items you see are part of an inventory and many of its props have been used on movie sets. Head up to the second floor and you’ll even find the find contents of an old fashioned pharmacy, furniture, carriages and many more items. This lovely building is the perfect setting for traditional Brazilian samba and chorinho. The acoustics are excellent and the tables centered around the stage and dance floor give everybody a great view. The caipirinhas are the drink of choice and the snack menu offers better-than-average munchies.

So take a spark of bossa
One fandero
Take a wiggle
And if guitars are strumming
Birds are humming
Drums are drumming
Then you can blame it on the rhythm of the samba!

This place had been on Annie's list of things she had to do, and she wasn't disappointed. Even being eighteen she skipped drinking because that led to things like painting your nails with maple syrup and Rilla wasn't even here, but she was having so much fun listening to the music and looking around.

Rio de Janeiro - Restaurants and Clubs in Arco do Teles (Wed Evening)

[identity profile] fh-creepies.livejournal.com 2012-02-22 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
When the hard working people of Rio de Janeiro leave their offices in historic downtown they head to the restaurants and bars beyond the Arco do Teles (http://gobrazil.about.com/od/wheretoeatinrio/ss/Happy-Hour-in-Downtown-Rio-De-Janeiro.htm). Join them in killing time, enjoying some cold drinks and soaking in the atmosphere in ancient cobblestone streets, and make sure not to miss out on one of the all-you-can eat churrascarias (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churrascaria). NOM NOM NOM MEAT. ON A STICK.

The last few days and nights had been fun but tonight Matt was doing his own thing tonight.

Which involved putting on a dark outfit, a ski masked pulled over his face and running across the rooftops of Rio.

Okay it wasn't a nightclub but Matt had a weird definition of fun, okay?
