And finally we are in RIO

Our guide has arrived and is looking for the bus!!


What about a 3AM wakeup call, 3:30AM taxi to the airport and a 5:45AM flight to Lisbon to start the day? Then it was a long walk through the Lisbon airport to get to the next gate, but we made it in good time. Settled in on the plane for a ten hour flight which was enough time to watch at least two movies. Finally we are in Rio and all of our luggage arrived. Timo and Katie took a taxi to their hotel while Maukka and Huli and the lads caught a bus to the Mellow Yellow Hostel headquarters for the HWC. But oops, the bus didn't show, so at this moment they are still waiting at the airport, but I have faith that they will shortly be at their hostel and then able to get some dinner.
