First off I would like to thank one of my avid readers for clarifying my musings on the cars of Brazil. Fiat, Renault and Peugeot have not been available in the states for many years. No wonder they seemed strange. I am told that Fiat is planning a comeback but in the high-powered market only. I saw another strange one today that I can’t figure out. The emblem/logo is a trapezoid containing 4 or 5 parallel lines. Got any clues. I only saw them passing by the bus so I could not decipher the make. Also, Ford has a tiny little thing that doesn’t look much bigger than the Smart Car. Chevy’s got a toy, too, but it’s a bit bigger than the Ford.
We have now crossed the equator and Neptune has punished the various crew pollywogs. After kissing the fish they are covered in various fashionably pastel puddings and gelatins and then covered in flour. Then the Captain and his staff decide if they are thrown in the pool or have to sit in the sun while the goop gets stickier. The whole thing deteriorates into a massive free-for-all. You can then get your picture taken with Neptune and his fishwife. Now I have to choose my next activity. Will it be “Everything You Wanted to Know About Judaism, but Didn’t Have a Rabbi to Ask,” “Afternoon Team Trivia,” “English High Tea” or Food.
