Saturday afternoon in Sao Paulo

































I took the boys to the center of Sao Paulo to see a couple of sights. Unfortunately, the "Empire State Building" of Sao Paulo was closed. It's too bad because that is the best thing to do in the city. The view from on top is crazy... skyskrapers as far as you can see in every direction. BUT, we had a consolation attraction: the Bovespa stock exchange of Brazil. Some Bovespa guy spotted us tourist w/ seven cameras disappointedly walking away from the Santander Bank building. He invited us in to see the stock exchange and to watch a 3D movie about the stock exchange. Wow!

After that, we went to the biggest commesrce street in Sao Paulo, ans to the cathedral, where there was another small samba parade getting started.
