First the answers to the riddle:
Barry Manilow "Copacabana" Astrud Gilberto "The Girl from Ipanema" a bit of Duran Duran "Rio" Geoff & Maria Muldaur "Aquarela do Brasil" Peter, Paul, & Mary "Leaving on a Jet Plane"
(Ok, Barry was singing about the nightclub in New York, Duran Duran about a woman, and I really mean the English version, "Brazil.")
All of that was stuck in my head because, cfox74 and Kate teaching in Rio de Janeiro, while Bryan (Kate's husband) and I are just along for the ride. I've never been to South America, and I'm rather giddy.
See you in a week!
