Ebonie+Entry+4

Well, today we are gonna be real tourists and go around and have a look at all the landmarks and historical stuff. We started off by going into Rio and riding the Corcovado Train right up to Christ the Redemer, the Corcovado train is the oldest tourist ride in the country. It was beautiful, the views and everything!! That took a couple of hours, so we stopped for something to eat and then we were off again, Pedra da Gávea was our next stop, it is is a granite rock that rises 842 meters above sea level, and people go rock climbing up it and everything, but I think I will be keeping my 2 feet firmly on the ground, thankyou very much!! We then went to Pico da Tijuca, a beautiful rainforest and mountain. The summit is 3320 feet, there is a 115 feet waterfall, Cascatinha de Taunay, at the Alto da Boa Vista, which is STUNNING!! It is almost dark, so we had better get back to our comfy tents..

Temperature - 27 Degrees Celcius Weather - A bit cloudy, but nice and cool!
