April 5 – In Rio

We arrived in Rio at about 00:30 am.  Both very tired.  We got through customs easily, the luggage came out quickly and we were greeted by our guide, Margaret.  We were at the hotel by about 1:45 and were in bed by about 2:30.  We both slept like logs and didn’t get up until about 1:00pm. 

Our room overlooks Copacabana Beach…what great views.

We picked one of the beach front eateries and ordered lunch.  Great place for lunch.  The staff here aren’t as fluent in English as those we talked with in Costa Rica but we all managed. 

After lunch we took a nice walk along the beach...

The weather is warm in the sun but lovely in the shade.  The ocean breezes help.  Could get used to this.
