It’s so good to be back in Rio and I just wanted to check in let everyone know that- no, sorry- we haven’t disappeared. I’m sitting here in Gloria sort of melting but enjoying the heat because it’s winter here and heat, therefore, is a blessing.

I’m watching airplanes fly over the Guanabara Bay out of Santos Dumont and wondering how I got so lucky to be here, again, in my favorite city on Earth. No matter how hot, no matter how many mosquitos are out for my gringo flesh, this view of the opposite side of the moon from the opposite side of the equator beats the view of downtown Los Angeles any day.

Speaking of the opposite side of the equator. Flushing the toilet has at once become my new favorite activity. Why? Yes, because I am weird, but more because the water swirls in the opposite direction and that is fucking COOL! Hello.

So so so I’m here to tell you not only that but to please stay tuned for new blogs, pictures and detailed accounts of adventures here in Cidade De Deus.

The tracer bullets are flying, the sun is out, the beach is warm, Narcisa is beautiful and capitivating as she always is, so now I must go.

It’s time for lunch.

Beijos beijos beijos,

Alessandra
