Last Full Day In Rio

As we headed out today I recall noting that this was the last full day of our trip, but on checking my watch it was already 3pm. It felt like we were working a split shift.

So we headed down for a last afternoon at Copacabana. A stroll along the beach, a bit of shopping, including a bottle of cachaca for those caipirinhas on a sunny day as a reminder of our time in Brazil.

We ate at the same restaurant we had on our first night in Rio, the Belmonte. We've become a little addicted to white rice and black beans. Might have to find a local Brazilian restaurant when we get back for our fix.

We finished off the night in the bar next to the hotel with a round caipirinhas, what else! It has been interesting how much more comfortable we feel in the area around the hotel after 6 days there. Even having walked the 25 mins back from the Sambadrome on 3 occasions.Lue lisää
