Sugarloaf


 

This morning we went up sugar loaf mountain when mum said we’re 

going up sugar loaf I thought we we’re climbing but then mum said 

we were going up the cable car. 

On the way there I thought I would be terrified but I was only slightly scared .

On the way up the view was beautiful but very high.

I brought loads of fruits to feed to monkeys but I couldn’t find any 

on the first island although I saw a sign saying “do not feed the monkeys;” 

I  on the way up the second one I was a lot more scared and we 

saw some vulchers “that didn’t help,” 

At the top we took some pictures and looked at the view then 

we went for a wee walk, pretty much immediately we saw some 

super cute lizard on the side of the path sunbathing. Me and 

Charlie tried to catch them but we weren’t even close whielst 

me and Charlie trid to catch the lizards dad went to have a 

look at the trees suddenly dad said “look!” we immediately 

ran over to him and looked ,right there in a tree right beside 

us was a tiny cute monkey! It was so cute! In the branch

 beside it I placed a fruit. Dad saw another in the tree beside it . 

We managed  to pat the first monkey!

After we finished taking pictures we headed back

First Few Days in Rio - Mary

Image
  When we landed in Rio Charlie said it felt like we had just gone into the  butterfly house at landmark - which i thought was very cute.   Our first day, Sunday, had torrential tropical rains.   We walked all the way up and down cocacobano beach.     Had an amazing buffet lunch.   Then returned to the less enjoyable cooking on a budget in a  1950s miniature oven and hob.     Even had to get out Dave’s leatherman to open a tin of sweetcorn.   Today (Monday) we had a pre booked tour round the city and  up to see Christ the redeemer which is spectacular.   When I suggested to the boys to be quiet and consider how massive the Christ is,  they replied they were considering how cute the monkeys were!     Their favourite part of the day was definitely the monkeys.   We are off now to explore the night markets.  Buenos noches.     Mary  ...

Carbon Monoxide

  We arrived at a hostel and had a great time playing  cards with Becky and Keen who were on a trek as well.   After dinner we went to bed in our rooms. Dad was  complaining about there being generator fumes in  the room but I wasn’t fussed so soon I fell asleep. I  woke up with mum and dad shaking me. I didn't  know where I was, who I was or what I was doing  there. I wanted to sleep but I felt horrendous.   Mum half carried me half dragged me outside  where I threw up .  Mum and dad stood beside  me, steadying me. Soon I could stand after 20 mins  later I went back inside to a new room and went  back to sleep. We woke up and drove to Uyuni  hospital where Charlie got oxygen. blue lines   The driving tour company gave me and dad oxygen.  I personally felt worse after but dad felt better. A fterwards we chilled out at are new hotel. Finlay Monday 16th June was the worst night of my life....

Copacobana

Image
         We were staying in cocacobana.  Rio is absolutely enormous spreading out in all directions.   We didn’t really explore elsewhere other than cocacobana, which is a city in itself.   The beach is incredible, very sandy for literally miles.  The boys played for hours in the waves.   There were red danger signs everywhere with massive waves but that didn’t stop us nor the  hundreds of others playing in the sea.  It was quite scary.  I went a little deeper to swim  properly and quickly realised it was very hard going to get back.  It is known for its  dangerous rip tides.  We all got knocked over and sucked under by the waves in the  shallows resulting in grazed knees.   Rio is so full of energy and diversity.  All shapes, sizes, ages, colours and creeds of  people hang out at the beach.  The one thing everyone has in common is how little  clothing i...
