11 PM Monday. We flew from DFW to Miami and then had a 9 hour flight from Miami to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Plane landed at 8 AM this morning. Rio is pretty big, girl on the plane told me 12 million people here but it is second largest city on Brazil behind São Paulo.
Because city was built around a big bay and in and around many mountains, and because city was started 500 years ago, roads are not big, not long and traffic does not move very fast. There are many cars and taxis with scooters bravely driving between the moving cars. It is exiting. We noticed that unlike many other large cites in the world, there was almost no horn honking?? Maybe Catholics are more polite?
