Brazil cruise, Costa Favolosa.
I had always wanted to visit Rio de Janeiro, which was on my bucket list. Whilst looking at other cruises, I saw that Costa Cruises had an offer for single people to cruise to Rio de Janeiro on the Costa Favolosa and I couldn't resist booking it up. A short time later I told my friend Gail, whom I met on my last cruise, about the trip. She liked the itinerary and asked if I would mind if she booked to accompany me. I was delighted to have her company, and she booked the cruise and the stay in Rio de Janeiro as well.
Today was our fifth day crossing the Atlantic Ocean on board the Costa Favolosa & the day we sailed across the equator.

Today the Costa Favolosa docked in Salvador & I went on a very short & poor tour of the area, the guide was the worst guide I have ever had anywhere in the world.
