Thanks for the pics. It gives us summer birds an idea of what takes place "out of Season".

We must have been standing next to each other roundy! The rain started just as the carnival started. I suspect the guy on the Suzuki has wrecked his engine continually revving it until it hit the limiter.

Sunday started at 3pm if that is any help to you. If you are near the town centre and they start off with the motorbikes again, then you will hear them. And the extremely loud carnival music - I shall cross my fingers for better weather for you!

.... and just look at the paving stones in the last picture.
That's a small example. There's much worse a few feet further.

Not worse, just lots more of the same along that one stretch.
Perhaps they will replace it all with Calcadas like it ought to have been ? (IMHO, of course)
