Carnival in Salvador, we bought tickets to join the blocos "Balada". Basically what happens when you buy a ticket is you get a special shirt called a camarote which is your actual ticket, this shirt allows you to get inside the rope surrounding the band which is on top of a truck with huge speakers. Inside the rope is a bunch of other people who bought the camarote and just follow along with the band and dance for hours until the end of the parade. It was quite a fun experience as you are actually a part of the parade. On the outside of the ropes are a lot of people who didn't buy the camarote...
