Hi Everyone!
Still living it up in Rio. Had a great night a couple of nights ago on the copacabana. Went down for 'one´ drink the other night, they have kiosks on the beach that serve beer. THe lads took the football down and decided to have a game. A group of Chileans next to us decided to join in so it was gringos (white people) against the chileans! The gringos beat the chileans 7-0!
Stayed on the beach till 6am to watch the sunrise which didn´t look too good since it started raining.
Went to the zoo yesterday, it was really good, better than i expected. THere were loads of animals to see, especially birds. We saw a wild marmoset in a tree! THe zoo is in the middle of a park so there are alot of exotic species just wandering around aswell. And the reptiles were outdoors which was great to see. Only R$6 in which is less than 3 euro...i got alot of stick from the lads about the price in to Dublin Zoo! Thought i came on this trip to get away from work but found myself defending the zoo (as i
always do!).
Heading out to a samba show tonight so will post those pics over the next few days. Going on a bus tour tomorrow to see the city.
Friday morning we fly to Sao Paulo for the wedding on saturday. Then we´ve a week to get up to the reserve in Casmiro de Abreu.
Will keep you posted!
