Waking up hungover in rio! I dragged myself downstairs to eat some breakfast- scrambled eggs on toast with some cheese.

After this we headed down to Ipanema beach and laid on the beach for a few hours. It was 30 degrees and the which was packed. The water was cold with a strong current so most people were just lying on the beach. There were lots of people selling stuff and they would very loudly yell out, no great if you want to relax. On the beach I did get a acai to help me recover - superfood! We also met our friends from the walking tour and pub crawl, Rachael and Agneiska.

After the beach we hopped onto the metro and waited for the girls to get changed at their backpackers before getting a cab to Ucra and getting out tickets for the cable car for sugar loaf mountain. The cable car had two stops, one halfway up and the other the full way up. We got up to the top of sugarloaf in time to watch the sunset. We even grabbed a beer whilst gazing out the beautiful rio De Janeiro. Once we got back to the middle, it was a bit darker so we took some shots of rio at night.

After this we jumped back in a cab and got dinner opposite Copacabana beach. I had some fish with wine sauce (the worst sauce I've ever had). After this we cabbed back to the hotel for a long sleep!
