Rio

I arrived in Rio via Lisbon on TAP.  Flights were on time, but the entertainment system on the flight to Brazil might as well have been from the 1980s and food was a bit questionable.  Other than that staff were quite good, kept me in Sagres- although I struggled to get enough sleep.

Maria's flat is pretty sizey and in a good location near Ipanema and Arpoador.  The interior design is a bit French old person but it seems to work.



The board that Maria picked up is what I was after.  We tried to head towards Prainha but after continual failure by Brazilian busses we ended up in Barra.  Fun enough surf to try out the new stick in 2ft onshore until it really crapped out.  Followed by some Brazilian meat, rice and beans.  Nice to be out in 30 degrees and board shorts.


Sunset at Arpoador.  Time to catch up on sleep.
