We made it!
Happy Fathers Day Brazil and Happy Brazilian Fathers Day Dad!
A beautiful day that started crisp and cold and cold. We kept a 21km average all the way to Rio. Just a few stops, one at a fancy German Kiosk place with good but expensive drinks. We got our first view of Christ as the road came down to the habour. Lots of homemade kites flying today.
As the bridge is not ridable by cyclists we headed for the Niteroi Ferry. It was a short habour cruise that we spent taking pictures, lots of pictures. We continued with the pictures as we swept along an empty motorway. They close the whole road on sundays and holidays. Today was both.
We are almost finished, the final destination, our redemption, waits on the hill above our hostel.
