Time to wish all you ghouls and goblins a Happy Halloween. The other DrC wore our Carnival-in-Rio costume headpiece today, it is a gaudy rascal, see photos at her blog.
It is sort of a football helmet with 16 inch horns, 'jewels,' gold braid, and glitter. We were given it by a member of one of the Rio samba schools, he'd worn it in that year's parade.
We brought it home in a cardboard box packed in dirty clothes and shipped as excess baggage. It sustained minor damage in transit.
