Heya Everyone,

Just a quickie to let you all know I'm ok :-). After a lovely 11 and 1/2 hour flight and a 40 min taxi ride we arrived at the Rio Backpackers Hostel in Copacabana at 23:00 local time (01:00 UK time).

Hostel is ok, free wifi (always a bonus), which I'm using now :-), but it's on the most hilariously steep hill I've ever seen...the taxi couldn't drive up it!!

Plans for today are beach and roaming...

Hope everyone is well.

Lots of love, ciao (or should I say adeus) for now!
