Her Name Is Rio And She Dances On The Sand...

So we arrived in Rio on Thursday to a packed Copacobana beach and an atmosphere that only a big city can bring and had been sorely missed up until this point. Itching to sample some decent night life, we headed off to a club which was formerly a house transformed into a two floor house party type shindig. Much to our delight it was bright on leaving the club in the small hours, which was our main priority.

Sore heads all round the next morning, which was no nice experience seen as we had to check out at 12 and change hostels. Somehow, we managed to drag ourselves out and into a taxi to the next hostel. That night we sampled a Rio street party, which is pretty much self explanitory-hundreds of people crammed onto the streets with music blaring from various places and makeshift bars set up on the side of the streets. The best thing about Rio is that there is so much more to offer in regard to nightlife, unlike the generic clubs that many other cities only offer. So tonight we´re off to a favela party, right in the slums of Rio, apparently one of the best options here...so until the next time...
