After a fairly quick flight early this morning, we're in Rio.We had arranged a pick up through our hostel. Orlando, our driver, is also a tour guide so we arranged a 2 stop tour with him.We stopped at the Christo Redemptor on the way back from the airport. It was pretty cool.HUGE Christ statue on top of a mountain.Some amazing views of Rio.Went to the hostel after that for an hour to get cleaned up and the we were off to Sugarloaf mountain.You take a cable car to the first mountain.Great views from there but Sugarloaf is still another cable car ride and MUCH higher.It was a nice tour of Rio in 4 quick hours.After we got back we took a short walk down to Ipanema beach and then back to the hostel.The hostel (Ipanema Beach House) is not so great but it's only 1 night.Off to Ilha Grande tomorrow.We have a transport by van and then speed boat arranged.
