well we finally got here with all the comotion of the BA flights cancelled then not cancelled, lots of added stresses. was an interesting flight very empty with some explicit goings on in the seats behind us ; ) lol. oh well we got here and the airport is a b**** to put it bluntly just really hot with loads of really long ques but we survived with srurn gazes. when we got out we were really struck by the umidity of the place. we thought wed take it easy as it only the first day so we just went down to copacabana beach and drank from coconuts while watching the waves, its a pretty gd life really. were meeting the group tonite so could be interesting. will keep this as up to date as poss. but the computers are v slow and depends if i can find a cafe. xxx
