Vegas v Brazil, part 1

Brazil - a cold shower is amazing, and sometimes not enough.
Vegas - just had a hot shower and loved it.

Brazil - breeze, water lapping, birds, boats and sunshine.
Vegas - fucking loud, everywhere. Bright neon, loud music. No escape from the noise or the gaudiness.

Brazil - cup of frozen acai berries mixed with banana, topped with oats,and crushed nuts.
Vegas - damn it vegas, mashed potato is NOT a breakfast food.

Brazil - underwear at most, and a 10 meter walk to the ocean
Vegas - Stagnant water in the fountains outside the casinos.

Brazil - Rampant alcohol consumption and party atmosphere
Vegas - Rampant alcohol consumption and party atmosphere

Brazil - Gringos are well loved and well treated
Vegas - Gringos are well loved and well treated if they have money.

Brazil - Dat Ass
Vegas - Dat Gut

Brazil - Strangers everywhere
Vegas - 4 Elvis', 3 Catwomen and a Barney. On the first night.

Brazil - fashionable bikinis and not much else.
Vegas - Long sleeves akimbo. Admittedly it's winter.

Brazil - Roads with potholes big enough to dislodge your fuel pump. You become a good defensive driver VERY quickly.
Vegas - Smooth sailing all the way.

Vegas - Concrete jungle
Brazil - Actual jungle

Brazil - Beaches and trees
Vegas - Desert and neon

Brazil - full of Brazillians
Vegas - full of everyone else.

More as they occur.
