Pictures taken driving by a place , not without a special reason sometimes.....
Here we go :
Pic 1: a branch of "my bank"... Banco Itaú , Brasils third largest bank after Banco do Brasil and Bradesco. I'd say there's some guts to give the bank a name in the indigenous Tupi-Guarani language , I guess almost nobody knows what "Itaú" means, including myself..... But it is a very modern and effective bank and I wouldn't open another account in any of the other 150 or more banks in Brasil....
Pic 2: the obvious and inevitable...... but would you guess that Mac in Brasil is considered high end middle class "classy" food..?????? Paulistanos with their whole family in their cute middle class cars pride themselves in waiting with running motor on Sunday evenings for an hour or so (!!!) in the queue line of the Mac drive through... Fast food gone mad......
Pic 3: Now this is one of my favorites and my bro-in-law is all excited about it too , we just couldn't wait to see what special remedies they had in this pharmacy for indigestion , gases and general stomach aches......
Pic 4: besides that , they offer big discounts on prescription drugs , one Real discount for every Farto you can produce.....
Pic 5: the first class , expensive and high end bakery chain "Leticia" , just a few steps away from my old house. Delicious , socalled "french bread" , carrot , chocolate , strawberrie cakes, nice cold and hot sandwiches and drinks to enjoy and some convenience items..... and more.....
yummie.....hmmmmmmmmmm, some of the nice things I haven't even mentioned yet.....
I'll soon shoot a few pics of the recently inaugurated disco/hang out place/night life spot , "DIVVA" the new meeting point for richie sons with their Porsches and barbie like socalled "patricinhas", daddies girls , who get everything they want..... I happen to be 10 % partner in this enterprise.... it was opened last week and I was there only on the inauguration night .... My partners were testing that night what the REAL capacity of the place is... by dosing the amount of people entering.... Geeezzzz..... at a certain point I almost fainted because there was no space to sit or stand or move..... hell !!!!!!!! And only techno music.... full blast....
Another "interesting" thing about São Paulo are the inumerous brothels and "motels".....
About this , another day......
