Rio de Janeiro, the next day
Today turned out to be sunny, contrary to what the weather report had predicted. So I took the chance to go to see Christ the Redeemer on top of Corcovado mountain, since sunny = can see the city below. And the views indeed were gorgeous! It was neat to be able to see the different neighborhoods and beaches of Rio.
Later I took a bus to Copacabana...
...and then walked to Ipanema, then finally took a cab home. I start to feel somewhat more comfortable in a city when I can begin to navigate its transport systems, since I feel like I can actually see and do things!
