"They" say that you should be careful with what you wish for, as it may become true. I was in search for the green fairy-and desperately wanted to see her.
Never thought though that it can be transformed and appear on Rua São Bento - there was more than one, and not quite green but I think my wish came true :-) how easy :-)) it was. I missed the "festa" last year, not knowing exactly what that was but this time I got the taste of it-art galleries opened until midnight, opera singers performing in the street, yellow roses and yes, delicious, fancy, lovely food and champagne, wine and sangria. What a style! Enjoy my fairies. There is also an Internet site about the event so in case you have a high curiosity of finding out what else happened there, you can take a look here http://ruadesaobento.blogspot.com/
