Rio

---

So we have landed. We will update this blog later as we have too much to do and little time to do it at the pace we can move in comfort. Nearly 40C here and it starts at about 28C at 9.00am! Done CTR and SLM - fantastic! Walked Ipanema and Copacabana beaches and found some interesting eateries. The hotel is located exactly between the two beaches.

Just for Pam and Bernie we will start off with the photo you could have had if you were not in the clouds!

Fun in the Sun
Sat here in a wet S Shields, surfing on someone unprotected wifi, discovering the meaning of jealousy as I enjoy your fun in the sun. Looking forward to those page 3 pictures ( or is that the Mirror) when you send us those 'On the Beach Shots'. Doug and Jean
