Hello,
We are in Cuiaba now for the
Australia v Chile game. You know I said to Dougie, shall I pack some tea
bags and he scoffed at me, though also there are no kettles in rooms
any way. I have learnt how to say hot tea, (sha Kent e) as when Dougie
ordered..."HOT TEA" he got a hot cheese sandwich!
Warmer
here and not very wheelchair friendly streets, lots of broken crumbling
pavements. Last night there were police and the armed forces out all
over the place (big guns / rifels) Not sure if that is normal or a one
off. Had dinner (Jantar) by choosing from the menu by pictures and
guesses. Managed to get all vegetarian from a fairly meaty menu.
The
breakfasts here are included in the hotel prices, lots of fruit and
allsorts, I had a coconut rice condensed milk sort of thing in Rio.
Dougie took my word for its flavour.
Anyway almost time
to get Dougie up, due to the hour time difference in Cuiaba I got up to
assemble the shower chair too early. The sun is now up, very bright.
They have a pool here, which I shall check out soon. This is the
swishest place in Cuiaba and of all the hotels we are staying in, we
were lucky to get anywhere in Cuiaba.
We haven't killed each other yet, but it's been close (especially for me)
