We arrived in Rio on Tuesday from BA and took a taxi from the airport to our B&B - The Maze. little did we know that the name is extremely descriptive. The Maze is in a Favela in Rio called Tavares Bastos, which is literally a maze of houses tightly nitted together.
The people of Tavares Bastos are super friendly and from the moment we arrived they have been helpful in every way possible. People warned us about how dangerous Rio can be and to be mindful of Favela's after dark but we have struck gold here - all down to the people and the wonderful views of Sugarloaf from our rooftop room.

We visited Sugarloaf yesterday, Ipanama the day before and we head for Jesus the Redeemer today before trying to find some cool Blocos tonight.
Rio has a great vibe just before Carnaval and we are so very much looking forward to the Blocos and the Sambadrome tomorrow.
Viva la Rio!!! Viva la Maze!!!
