Awesome book, makes you want to travel for parties

This was an awesome book filled with great and fun adventures/places to visit to party. I'm planning a trip to Brazil for the Rio Carnival now! This book is filled with a lil history and places to stay while at these party locations. On another note...I was recently told of the Mazatlan Carnival in Mexico....the world's 3 largest party (not mentioned in this book). Maybe another great party location! In either case the book is filled with great places to party or to visit. I can't wait to get out there and check them out! You'll enjoy this book, if not for you then buy it for a friend. Makes a nice gift:) Enjoy!

Let's go party!

My daughter in college is studying anthropology. I gave this to her as a Christmas gift-she loves it. It contains good decriptions of festivals around the world, time, place, etc. Excellent photos. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves travel and festivals.
