I hope that Aimee is having better weather in Rio than the rain we have had up here all day, I am curious about what it will actually be like in Rio seeing as how the forecast dramatically changes for it daily. I hope that since it is in a tropical climate the forecasts that predict rain actually mean pop up showers like those of Florida. Even if our trip is bogged down by rain, we will still have an amazing time enjoying each other’s company and the culture of Brazil.

Over and out!
