Hills on the way to Rio
Cattle country
The breakers
were even bigger this morning when I left. Caught the 7:40 bus to Rio from
Macae, nice 2 1/2 hour ride, got to see the country side. On arriving in Rio I was able to get a taxi to
the airport and arrive there with time to spare. Good thing I was told to keep
checking on what gate for my departure, I was sitting at gate 3 when what do
you know it changes to gate 2. Arrived
in Sao Paolo in heavy rain, I am on a hill and the water is gushing down. Unpacked
and just realized how damp It was in Macae. My clothing all felt as if I had
just taken it out of the washer, so wet. Very nice place, a hotel this time, 8th
floor of the Landmark Hotel in the Jardin district. No cooking utensils here,
guess I’ll have to eat out, the hotel has a nice restaurant. This area is said to be quite safe, that is
nice. Tomorrow morning I walk about 3 blocks to work. Internet here is pretty slow, hope they can remedy it.
