Todo Bem (all is good)
My trip to Curitiba Brazil was very long. It was great to get here. Along the way I stopped in Rio. Rio is beautiful from the plane and sprawls for miles. The city is surrounded by mountains and beautiful beaches. I took a cab from rio's international airport to a regional airport. The ride between exposed Rio for the scary place that you hear about. I would have pictures to post showing the slums, however I felt guilty taking pictures of the extreme poverty. I've never seen anything like it before in my life.
Curitiba is fairly large city in Brazil and a large business center. It is known for a higher quality of life and higher personal income. Last night I went out in Batel. Batel is an upscale downtown area filled with young professionals, outdoor bars and restaurants.
Going to bed was the highlight of my day...after 29 hours of travel it was well deserved.
