12th February 2013 Every year at this time, the best place to party indeed has to be Rio. It’s not just confined to one building, oh no. But the WHOLE City, taking place over 5 days. Phew, that’s a lot of partying! But we needed to have a big...
12th February 2013 Feeling suitably suntanned from our day at Ipanema Beach yesterday, we were ready to do another cultural icon of Rio. We’ve already done the Lapa Steps so…..this means the big guy. Yes, the big guy. I’m sure...
11th February 2013 After another night of partying at Lapa and Ipanema Beach in the evening last night, Auston, Dave and I duly returned to Ipanema Beach the next day to get some much-needed sun. After all, I’m in Rio and I still look like Casper the...
10th February 2013 So it was about time to do something cultural in Rio de Janeiro for a change. Partying too much the last 2 nights had certainly taken its toll on us especially after the whole Banda de Ipanema Parade the previous day. So taking the courage to...

4th -5th February 2013 So as we left Foz de Iguazu without any hitches, we were on our way to Sao Paolo that would take us overnight to get there. Despite a sassy brazilian woman sitting in front of us calling us idiots repeatedly (we’re not idiots...
4th February 2013 Rejuvenated from our sleep after the border crossing madness that took place last night, we had breakfast round the pool. We remembered being in the pool after a few too many caipirinhas last night and somehow ended up teaching each other our...
3rd February 2013 Okay, I just had to have that as a title. How can I not?! Yes, as my last post tantalized as we finished the day in the Argentinian side of Iguazu Falls, we were already on our way to Brazil. Settling ourselves in the bus bay...
