Transport....

But you may be wondering how I´ve been getting around- or if you are in the transport world looking for some nice pictures for the next report you are doing (or when a consultant asks you for some nice pictures for that next report)....Anyway, aprart from lots of 10 to 20 hour bus journeys (comfortable, cheap and with food in Argentina, OK, but expensive and with no food in Brazil), I have been trying out a few options on the transport front, some more touristy than others...

1. Little transfer train, Iguacu falls national park, Argentina.



2. Articulated bus with ´premium´ round bus shelter (allows prepayment, mimising dwell time at stops), Coritiba, Brazil.



3. Tourist train through jungle from Coritiba, Brazil.



4. Boats for taking tourists out for swimming, seeing islands etc, Paraty, Brazil



5. Little red train that goes up to Christ statue, Rio, Brazil



6. Crazy little yellow tram (lacking any safety features, with people hanging off etc), up to Santa Teressa, Rio, Brazil



7. Statue at service station somewhere between Sao Paulo and Paraty showing that Brazil has not totally forgotton the cyclist....


Um, hope that´s kept you interested on the transport front for the time being..
