The New York Times does Brazilian Day in New York. The festival took place this past weekend on 46th street or Little Brazil, and drew about 1 million people.
While some people were partying Brazilian style on the streets of New York, others were in the Nevada desert for the annual Burning Man festival.

Brasil day was sooooooooooooo much fun! It was like a cheap trip out of the country for a day! It's always funny seeing tourists stumble onto fairs in the city with that, "this must be some kind of party" look on their faces. Great day/music/sexy people!
