We have arrived in Rio!

After a long day of traveling and airports, the team has arrived. For now we have checked into our hotel, the Merlin Copacabana Hotel, and we are catching up on some much needed sleep. Tonight we will be playing our first game and will get to experience our first night’s stay in Rio!
