Foz do Iguacu to Curitiba - San Martin Hotel
Mainly traveling today as we caught the plane into Curitiba and after checking into our hotel walked to the railway station to collect our tickets for the following day's trip on the Sierra Verde train.
We were really surprised to find the city basically all shuttered up, it was about 6pm on a Saturday night and everything we walked past was closed. We headed out to find somewhere for dinner and started getting a little desperate as restaurant after restaurant were all shut.
After inadvertently walking through what appeared to be the red light district we found a square in part of the old town with bars full of people and a few restaurants - the only area in town open. Walking home after dinner (back through the red light district where a strange fellow took a liking to K!) we came across a very amateurish breakdancing competition being held on the tiles on the footpath outside the shopping centre next to our hotel, it is amazing what you stumble across when walking in a strange city after dark.
