And now its began

Ok so its taken a little while to get going with this, but as you have guessed we have been in brazil a little over 2 weeks now!

started off in Rio, visiting the norml sites and sounds. Sugarloaf, Christo, and the maracana, plus a superb street party on a friday night in Lapa.

Since Rio we have spent four nights on the tranquil island of ilha grande, which entailed a 3hr bus ride, and the 50mins on a catarmaran to get there, from there we spent 2 nights in paraty, a very european feeling town on the coast, with a pier and an active fishing community.

Just arrived in Sao paulo and will see what it brings.

2 more sleeps

So we have two more sleeps until we embark on our outbound journey. Manchester-New York-Sao Paolo-Rio de Janeiro. 30 or so hours of travelling seems like a long haul but when it compares to the length of time we will be there for, it is only short term. The next post we place will be from the other side of the world.
