Day 1
I arrived @ Sao Paulo Guarulhos airport where i had to jump on a bus outside to take me to the main bus depot in the center of the city. This is a very large split building but it is very simple to navagate. I purchaced ticket from upstairs for my 6 hr trip to Rio.
I could not beleive the bus when i climbed on i was handed a box of food, a drink, and a blanket. The seats turned into beds. But i still could not sleep as once out of the city the views were amazing with open plains that turned into mountains.
The trip passed very quickly and i soon found myself in rio Central.
I caught a taxi to tupiniquim hostel, where i would be stayng for the next 13 nights in a six man dorm. Its great though and staff are very cool.
I arrived just in time as there was a group from the hostel all going to a party in an area called Lapa. We all arrived at the party paid our entrance of 15 reals and this got us free drinks all night. The streets outside were buzzing with the sound of samba and thousands were dancing to the beat.
Well this was a great first day.
