Arrived in Rio about 1 hour ago. This city is huge and looks interesting even from our ship. I have had to cancel my tour for today but will get to go tomorrow. I will be missing the Lesser Rio that Joanna and Marcie have raved about. Hate having to give up seeing all things possible, but I can enjoy watching the city from my balcony.
No new news about the woman who was air lifted off. Will report back if I hear anything second hand that sounds interesting. It seems many of the passengers are using private guides to visit all sorts of Brazilian sounding sites - time on the beach, night clubbing, etc. Will try for photos, especially this evening when all the lights of the city are ablaze.
