I had a tour booked for 9 am, but had to cancel,family matter back home had to be dealt with, and when I was free just before noon I took a taxi for a three hour ride around the city. Three hours of misery. No ventilation. Firmly locked doors and windows I was not allowed to roll down - the taxi driver was afraid of us being robbed by gunmen ( yes, this is a regular occurance in Rio).So we drove around, heavy traffic, blocked roads,piles of rubbish everywhere. Irritable taxi driver.All photos taken through the dirty windows I deleted. The few I have kept are taken on approach to the city. They are quite spectacular. The Christ the Redeemer I never got to see in person. Maybe next time.
