BrazilMonday 9th April 2012 no3

Another fantastic day in Sao Paulo really stuffed tonight.

After breakfast we went walking to the BMW shop downtown,stopping only once to change money to Reals ,the day was warming up quickly .Once we arrived at the shop the "gangster van"picked us up and took us to the heliport there was two helicopters so three in each.it was 1/2trip over the vast area of Sao Paulo. We were told that Sao Paulo is the third biggest city in the world it has over 22million people ,after seeing it from the air we could quite believe it.It was an eye opener and well worth it.

Returning to the city we walked and walked through the old part seeing shoe shine men, buskers,bubble blowing clowns,all very fascinating.

At3/30the guide asked us if we would like some lunch, well you can guess the response ,so we walked and walked to the markets, had lunch at4pm and even I had 3 beers.we were so dehydrated (so we said) after a Hugh sandwich ans again something we did not know what it wad we caught the gangster van back to the ice cream parlour for well deserved ice cream.

Vic has changed his mind about what bike he is now going to ride the  Honda transalp

Repacked our bags for the panniers and now off to sleep

Tomorrow we head for an island called Iihabela
