After three days of driving and a visit to two hospitals... the leader injured her back, we arrived safely in Paraty... very nice colonial town on the coast. Difficult to reach because of landslide on a road, but we made it in the end.
After cleaning the truck we drove on to Rio de Janeiro. We went to see the statue of Christ yesterday... in the clouds which made it good fun... waiting for the cloud to clear so that we could get photos.
Had lunch in a proper local restaurant... I had the ¨Special¨... mystery meal... excellent choice!
Copacabana Beach was fun... although a bit boring before the fireworks started... we got there too early... not to worry. We even managed to get a taxi back... very expensive but it was worth it to get away fromt the 2,000,000 strong taxi queue!
Cuba on Sunday and then home....
