Peru, Bolivia, Brazil Mon 22 - Thurs 25 Sept 08
Had a quiet last few days in Rio. Priority Monday was to book bus from Rio to Porto Seguro which is a resort in Bahia region north of Rio. 18 hour journey so decided to go overnight from Wed evening.
Went to Rio ´´Carnival of Culture´´, young people performing on a stage - some ballet and traditional brazillian dancing, very good.
Spent some time on Copacabana beach, very relaxing and pleasant.
Must mention reception staff at Atlantic Copacabana Hotel, really helpful, brilliant.
Wed evening got to bus station by taxi OK, took 50 mins, very bad traffic here. Very efficient at bus station, luxurious bus, slept most of the way.
Now Thursday and installed in hotel in Porto Seguro, right next to sea front and main area of town, here for 2 weeks so should be good. Nice room, helpful people. Bigger pool but a funny shape as they do in hotels. Nothing exciting planned so will be a few days to next blog.
Take care everyone, All the Best,
John
