There, that’s one major Rio attraction sorted out, now for the next one: We had been advised by some friends to go as early as possible, because it gets crowded up at the statue really fast! We waited for the first clear day, and had a wonderful time ^_^ And us …

It’s taking too loooooong! When we started to get used to the boat, it was fun – we could actually move about doing every-day stuff without feeling drugged..
