Girl from Ipanema-

- or yours sincerely strolling along the very famous beach in Rio de Janeiro.

We saw all the key landmarks of Rio today with the expert guidance of Amelia and Carlos, the driver: Pao de Acucar, or the sugar top mountain, Corcovado, or the statue of the Christ on a mountain, the different parts of the city, the lagoon, churches and of course both Ipanema and Copacabana.

It was Friday the 13th, and still is - which was proved by Carlos receiving a fine from the police for having thrown a cigarette butt on the ground at Copacabana.

We have now witnessed a historical slaughter of the defending champions in the Copa, when Holland beat Spain 5-1! Are getting prepared for a dinner and a samba show downtown.
