Day 81 – Rio


As I may have mentioned previously it is Carnival in Brazil so I spent several hours this morning running around the city looking for the last remaining tickets to the grand finale parade, after eventually locating the ticket office I realised that I didn't have enough money on me to afford one so spent another hour finding a bank that accepted Visa. In 42 degree heat that is considerably more grief than it already sounds.


I spent the afternoon at a far more leisurely pace, having a few beers and taking in the scenery on Ipanema beach – I had no idea watching a game of volleyball could be so enjoyable – the temperature got considerably hotter than 42.


In the evening I had a cold shower, and Ciara banned me from volleyball games.
