The Festa do Bofim is a religious celebration in Salvador Bahia "Which is about a 45 min ride in the car to get to from where I live". I ended up going on 1/15/15 with two other exchange students "Lena and David" and the uncle of Lena who was the one who took us. We ended up walking from the Lacerda Elevator to the Igreja do Nosso Senhor do Bonfim which is about a 6.6 Km walk but, felt a lot longer with the crowd you see in the pictures. There were a bunch of street vendors who sold novelties to drinks and food and a lot of bands playing on the street. Please keep in mind that I don't take as many photos at these events because of the fear of theft of my camera. If anyone wants any information on what the Festa do Bonfim is Ill post some links at the bottom of this post.
