里约当地人也许会抱怨20˚C实在是温度太低,但是在商家们进行龙舌兰酒促销活动时,他们又蜂拥到大街上.
We pile into a nearby restaurant for serious food. Cariocas eat late and they eat as they party, with a bossa nova band playing in the square. And I realise, caipirinha in hand , I've found my happy place.
我们涌入附近的一家餐馆准备大吃一顿.里约人吃饭时间较晚,他们通常一边吃饭一边办趴,巴萨诺瓦乐队在广场上弹唱.我意识到,凯匹林纳鸡尾酒(巴西国酒)在手,把酒言欢,夫复何求.
