Rio!

Hello from Rio - sooo the internet here is a bit less than ideal so I believe I have a lot to catch up on ...

The end of Sao Paulo was great. We traveled to Rio on Sunday, arrived, checked into our hotel, and went to a lunch place where we had AMAZING crepes. 

Then, AC, EW, and I hit the beach for a bit to work on our killer tans (insert laugh here). 

For dinner, we went to an all-you-can-eat pizza place where they just keep bringing pies around and you ask for whatever (yum!). 

Once the team left, the staff hung out there for a while and had some servesas (chopp beer). 

Yesterday we started off the morning by heading to Sugarloaf - amazing - and then back to the same lunch place. 

We had about an hour of free time (enough to grab a 20 minute run in the BLAZING heat) and then we walked down the beach about 10 minutes for our team to play in a beach soccer match - halarious!

Last night it was back to the pizza place and then the staff and much of the team hung out at a little hut on the beach for the night. 

We have a "free" day today so I'm going to attempt to relax on the beach for a bit/most of it (we'll see how that works - that's not exactly my forte!)
