269: Pick-up with flag
The Brazilian national soccer squad was very successful in 1994, 1998, and 2002. However, the squad had a disappointing tournament in 2006. In 201o, Brazilians expected their heroes to win their sixth world title in South Africa. Rumo ão hexa, was the slogan. The team had a slow start in the group phase, but many people still believed in another world title. Until the quarterfinal against the Netherlands, when the Dutch squad won this duel. Before and during the football World Cup, the colors green, yellow, and blue dominated the streets. Also the cars were decorated with the colors of the national flag. Like the hood of this pickup in Ouro Preto.

239: Lantern and shadow
Since 1980, Ouro Preto -former capital of Minas Gerais – takes part of the UNESCO World Heritage List. The town, located in a mountainous region, has its riches thanks to the extraction of gold and precious stones. In the cozy historic center you will find numerous shops with a wide array of precious and semiprecious stones, which attract many tourists. At a small outdoor market numerous objects of soapstone are offered at attractive prices. But tourists do not only visit Ouro Preto to buy stones and jewels. They marvel at the richly decorated churches, public buildings, and private homes. They visit cozy but narrow streets that are adorned with antique lanterns that cast their shadows on the whitewashed walls in the evening.
