It took me two weeks after returning from South America to put pen to pad (or in this case, fingers to keyboard) about my visit to Rio de Janeiro, Iguazu Falls and Buenos Aires, but it’s better late than never.
And let’s face it: With 10 days left until college football season is upon us, we are in the Siberia of the sports schedule.
So after chronicling my honeymoon cruise on the Mediterranean, trek across the globe to Tokyo and Beijing and South African trip and safari, here are my impressions, observations and experiences in South America:
Rio de Janeiro
• On our way from the airport to the hotel, these Ruff Ryders were next to us on the highway; I thought to myself, “I’m going to like it here…”
• Rio is basically a South American Miami with mountains.
