Feast your eyes on the Pink Elephant of Sao Paulo.  Nights are getting a whole lot more interesting down in Brazil.  The decor may not be anything special, but the girls are (even though I have a hard time admitting this), decidedly more beautiful.  What is in the water down in Brazil that makes these women so HOTTT?!
