Leaving Bahia's Paradise

We have booked out of our hotel and we are now killing time until we leave for the airport. Perfect time to catch up with Livejournal and people's lives.

Yesterday, after updating this thang, we went to a nearby cafe called Açai Club. They sell all kinds of shakes and vitamin drinks, mostly with the amazon fruit açai (known for having lots of vitamins and even being an aphrodisiac.) We like going to this place because the waiter plays the weirdest mix of music. Depeche Mode will be followed by Lisa Stansfield, Sister Sister straight after Midnight Oil.

While we were sitting there, we suddenly heard screams. We looked down the road and an anorexic man was wielding a broom and hitting another man. He was screaming "Yes I am a faggot (viado)! So what!" WHACK. WHACK. We had seen this bicha louca before when we walked around the village: he is part of a small group of incredibly effeminate men who seem to be part of this town and who are very visible because of their mannerisms, their jokes, their laughter etc. The other man, a construction worker (who later on we realized was drunk) must have insulted him - thus the broom beating. He even gave the guy a kicking while a small crowd of tourists and workers stopped what they were doing to watch the scene.

Afterwards, the injured worker stood around with some of his mates while they laughed at him.

This morning, spent the hours sunbathing by the pool and swimming. Around 10 o'clock, we started hearing screams from one of the rooms closest to the pool. The screams were from a woman... repetitive... piercing.

Yup. Loud sex.

The guy who was sweeping the grounds even moved strategically near to the room so he could hear more. After a ten minute break, the screams returned. My brother and I sniggered. Half an hour later, the couple came out for their breakfast. They looked like they had an appetite.


Goodbye Arraial D'Ajuda

wow, you picked an interesting place to go!
Screaming sex sessions, and anorexic gay men beating construction workers with brooms...awesome!

(too bad you didn't have a camera handy for the beating)

Unusual things happen everywhere, I think. It's just a matter of keeping your eyes open and a bit of luck.

We did have the camera but it all happened so fast that by the time I noticed my mouth was hanging open from astonishment, the whole thing was over.

I've never been blessed with the chance to watch a broom beating. Was it fun?

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2005-03-20 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
It was more shocking than fun. I even asked the waiter at the Acai Club if we should call the cops! But he was laughing and saying that it would be alright... and a few minutes after it was.

Lovely beach.

Realmente coisas bizarras acontecem o tempo todo!!! Basta prestar atenção ao seu redor. Por mais que o lugar pareça ser calmo, acho que vc se divertiu muito, heim? Ainda bem! Pra onde vcs vão agora?
Como foi no Matrix? Apareceu alguém? Nem deu pra eu ir! Que pena!!!

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2005-03-20 02:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Nos divertimos bastante. Agora estou de volta em Sao Paulo por mais algums dias (e talvez va para o litoral hoje a noite!) e meu irmao voltou para Londrina.

O Matrix foi muito joia.... se alguem apareceu, eles nao falaram comigo. ;) Mas tudo bem.

Queria te perguntar algo: Quando voce estudou na Argentina? O meu amigo Henrique quer saber se talvez voce estava numa serie abaixo dele (ele nasceu em 78).

[identity profile] la-magarita.livejournal.com 2005-03-20 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
eu morei em Buenos Aires de 92-94. E sim, eu provavelmente estava um ano abaixo dele, pq eu nasci em 79. A minhe best friend era de um ano acima, a Maria Marletta, talvez ele a conheça.

Se o Henrique tiver orkut, fala pra ele me adicionar...podemos trocar algumas figurinhas.

Pra que praia vcs estão indo???

E se fizerem uma baladinha Paulistana, me avisa, que tento aparecer!!!
Hj vou estar no Vila Isabel, na Helio Pelegrino, creio que a partir das 5h, apareçam!!!

Estamos na praia no momento... o Henrique nao se lembra da sua amiga... voce tem um irmao talvez que estivesse na serie dele? Ele estava la em Buenos Aires em 92, mas voltou para o Brasil em 93.

Ele nao tem orkut, mas se tiver tenho certeza que te adicionara. ;)

I hate loud sex...unless of course, I'm personally involved in the noise making. ;)

Cool! :)

Two kind of screams with such a different nature! :P I prefer the second one... I don't know why, but I've never liked effeminated guys... I don't understand what can move a guy to became a girl-like in only a couple of weeks after "discovering" his homosexuality... It shouldn't be such a quick proces.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2005-03-25 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never seen it happen that way. Effeminate men that i know are usually already effeminate before "coming out" (which is never a surprise since everyone knew already!) But I would be irritated with someone if they started acting effeminate after coming out; I would think it's just an act and not their real self.
