Die Fortsetzung, die keiner mehr haben wollte
... Beleidigungen können wir uns gerade noch verkneifen und bringen ein hoffentlich dankbar klingendes „Obrigada“ heraus.

Die Straßenstände sind beleuchtet wie Christbäume und an der Busstation dröhnt aus den Boxen laute Musik. Das Vorhandensein von Elektrizität führt hier scheinbar dazu, ...
