Jim Walsh, Our Travel Co-ordinator has filed this second report from Brazil to keep us up to date with the first four days of his World Cup adventure.

Day 5 – we’ve booked a seaplane flight for the afternoon. After breakfast we chill by the pool, watching a tropical rainstorm in the distance.

We decide to watch the Germany Portugal game in the bar at the next hotel. Very nice.

Germany look strong but surely that wasn’t a pen and what would Captain Mainwaring have made of Mullers cheating!!

Straight after the game we’re off on our seaplane trip – a small, noisy, five seater.

Another fantastic trip and a great way to see the Amazon.

The pilot must realise we’re England football fans and does a slight detour for great aerial views of the stadium.

In the evening we head down town and the square by the opera house to watch USA v Ghana. Loads of septics in the square with their imaginative
chant of U S A U S A.

Day 6 – just getting up for breakfast. A day of travelling again. We’ll probably get to the airport a bit early to catch Brazil Mexico in the

Budweiser zone before our 4 hour flight to São Paolo.
