Travel to Rio do Janeiro!

Tropical birds and a whole lot of songs from Rio de Janeiro!

Now we go south for the next trip to Brazil! And way over the countless miles of water I finally land at the airport. Tired and sleepy from the whole plane ride I take a cab and get to the hotel. At the hotel I checked in and they carried my luggage and showed me to my room and for their help I went and gave them a token of my appreciation cause I would've broke down half way to my room if I had to carry my luggage. So when I got there I hit the hay and slept for what seemed forever and woke up well rested seeing that it was actually the afternoon. But I didn't care.  But I did get clean and well get dressed and all. When I looked out the window I saw the sparkling beach with the sun's golden rays, white smooth sand fined into the smallest grains, and crystal blue water splashing on the gorgeous shore.

So when I was gazing at that beautiful scene I thought to myself "tomorrow I will go to the beach. And that's how it went. When I stepped in the water the water was warm and I could see my feet really clearly. That amazed me so much cause whenever I went to the beaches in the U.S I couldn't see my feet in the water. I couldn't. So when I could see what was under the water I was amazed but I was a little um somewhat jealous on how in the U.S the water wasn't as clear as in Rio when the water is the same water around the world but I guess it’s because in the U.S there is more water contamination or something like that with all the factories we have there. Tip to for Rio: When you go to Rio try to find the most elegant clothing but not the expensive clothing that is elegant either cause here the Brazilians judge on what you wear and if it's elegant or not and on your appearance instead of how your personality is. And so thus ends my tip. But the beaches are great! They are a pretty sight to see and it says beauty all over the beach. Going to the beach is a must do!

In Rio I also went to the famous statue Christ the Redeemer or Cristo Redentor. It stands on the peak of a 2,300 ft. mountain overlooking the city, Rio de Janeiro. When I was packing necessary things like water, charged camera, sun block, watch, sunglasses, travel size umbrella, little snacks, a hat, bug spray, a charged cellophane (in case I can get a signal), napkins, and a map. And I also brought pocket money in Brazilian money called Brazilian real. But I was not going to go by walking (even if it was allowed) I was going by train. The fee was 36 Brazilian Real dollars. (Tip: the train comes back to the station every 30 minutes.) I could afford that cause the pocket money I had was actually a lot more than pocket money but you have to keep that a secret there if you want to have all your money safe. But since I am back home I don't need to keep it a secret no more. The train ride had spectacular scenery especially on the right hand side. Lucky me I did sit on the right hand side. So tip of advice sit at the right hand side to see the most spectacular views during the train ride. When the ride was over I got off the train and that's when I saw the most spectacular view yet! The statue Christ the Redeemer was right above me. It was the moment I was waiting for. I was looking down on the city everything looked so small and it was just amazing that you have to go visit Christ the Redeemer because it is a most do too. I took a bunch of pics. The trip was awesome and there were so many awesome memories at the top of the peak. No regrets even if the heat that day was greatly filled with heat and humidity. But that was one of my highlights in trip.
