The rest of Rio was quite glorious. We had wonderful visits with O Globo and Petrobras. We went to the O Globo printing facility. It was amazing to see the process a newspaper takes to become a newspaper. Petrobras is one of the leading oil companies in Brazil and in the world.
We finally found a semi-affordable laundry. Hooray! After picking it up we found the thing that I have been waiting for. Besides the sandy beach and amazing views, the thing I remember most about Rio from 4 years ago was...stuffed churros! The stand cooks the churros and then the vendor fills them with chocolate or dulche de leche. Can you spell yummy? So good!
After a morning at the Corcovado and the beach, many of us then went to a Samba Club called Rio Scenarium Saturday night. What an experience. It was a club filled with movie props and eclectic furniture. The music was fabulous and it was a great opportunity to have fun together.
Sunday morning was so nice to catch up on some much needed sleep and then one more walk on the beach.
Our flight to Sao Paulo was short and sweet. I love domestic airports...much less hectic and crowded. Sao Paulo is a crazy busy city. There are skyscrapers and cars everywhere! The next few days are filled with amazing visits! Love it!
