Weather followed by The Spirit of Carnival Narrated by Elizabeth Bell
The twin carnivals of Rio and Trinidad are two of the most glorious festivals to be celebrated in modern times. The Portuguese took the entrudo, a ritual last fling before Lent, to Brazil. The French took Mardi Gras to
Trinidad.
Today carnival lives on as a magnificent spectacle of fantasy and illusion. Producer BOB SAUNDERS
