Hiiiiii!!!!!
Time for a little update we thinks.
Our 3rd day in rio and we are still far from a tan- we haven´t even got any more freckles yet!
DC arrived yesterday (shout out to Lynney C) and led us to the botannical gardens and walked around the 7.5km lake- by error of course. He´d only been here one day and I´ve never heard the words ´tour´ and ´ladsy´ so much in my life - Shauna. Eleanor almost wet herself with excitement after spotting a cheeky monkey in one of the trees, and then a sneaky lemur. We then hit up the beach which was more successful than our cornwall experience of the day before. Yet still no tan in sight.


Today we took part in some hardcore queuing for Christo Redentor/Christ Redeemer/See picture below. The view was absolutely amazing and it was completely worth the wait- Wayne I needed your SLR.
We were also going to head to Sugar loaf mountain but we´ll head there tomorrow.


(apologies for how rough we look!)

Right, Dan and Eleanor are calling us to get to the bar so we´re off. We´ll check in soon hoepfully with some Sugar Loaf Mountain and hang-gliding pics!!

Love you xxxxxx

    Loving the pictures, so keep them coming, the "senior gavs" are now on tour' you would get plenty of freckles here in Syracuse NY, if you could bear to go out in the 38c heat!
    Love Mum and Dad xx
