Roberto (the South American version of Robert Peel)
- in search of his long-lost cousin Paddington.
Believed lost somewhere in Peru.
Watch his exploits in his sub-blog......

Pau de Acucar (Sugar Loaf), reached by cable car via Morra
da Urca. A massive volcanic cone at the entrance to Guanabara Bay – this is
what we see each day off to the left of Copacabana Beach. This made up for yesterday’s tour. Fabulous James
Bond-style cable cars with panoramic views across all of Rio. Weather warm (circa
30 deg) but overcast today. Saw a Marmoset and first of many lizards. Also a
beautiful red-backed bird (unfortunately that’s the extent of my ornithological
prowess, so I’d better find out a bit more during this trip for you twitchers).
