It was similar routine duties, i.e., attend the meeting, have lunch at the restaurant at the base, etc. At the end of the day, we went back to our hotel, change close, and two of us took off to see the real Rio with local colleague. Because, where we’re saying (Ipanema beach) is just a tourist location and it doesn’t represent the real Rio. Thus, we were escorted by local friends, who really know the inside and outside of Rio, to Rio down town. He took as to Lapa and have drink at Lapa cafe and dinner at Boteco Coriogwinha restaurant. We then walk around Lapa and downtown area. Lapa and downtown areas are the places where you can find all sort of real Rio test. I can proudly say this, we were fortunate enough to find such knowledgeable local friend who really devoted his time and helped us explored the real Rio de Janeiro of Brazil. He also stunned us with his incredible knowledge of some specific stuff, which we both learned a lot out of that.
This was the bridge that was built to transport water to the residence of the priest which is located at the hill!
This is one of many magnificent architecture in Rio. The Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Sebastian, better known as the Metropolitan Cathedral of Rio de Janeiro.
One of many sites that we saw around downtown Rio.
If you want to see the real test of Rio go to this cafe!
