Rio - 02/12/2008



went up to see the Christo Redentor Monument up on the Hill, it was alot bigger than it looks from the ground and had some great views again.
We got the little train up from the city to Santa Theresa which was very cute. Santa theresa is a little district up in the hills with a couipl of back packer places, I tried out my Portuguese and asked for a couple of beers, I was given to Expressso coffees, neither of us have got a clue how that happend so when we'd had those I decided to go back t o the conventional pointing which got the job done. We walked back down from there to 'Gloria' and jumped on the metro back to Botofogo.
In the evening we found a little area called the Cobbled Market, we ordered Hifi's at a bar not knowing what they were, turned out to be massive measures of vodka with fresh squeezed orange, Bird loved it...
