A fine, dry Sunday. At a mild 21°C after a cold start, it is a good day to be out, and the car-free Avenida Paulista is the place to do it.
Make the most of it today. A cold, wet spell arrives midweek, so this dry weekend is the window before the rain sets in.
Brazil are sitting pretty. After Friday’s 3-0 win over Haiti, the side tops its group ahead of Wednesday’s decider against Scotland.
It is a day for the open street. Paulista and the Minhocão both hand over to walkers and cyclists, the city’s great Sunday ritual.
