We came to Curitiba for the train, and it was okay. Truth is, the Durango to Silverton narrow gauge railroad has ruined us for other railroads. The bus ride to Morretes was really cool though, through bromeliads and blooming banana trees, down a narrow cobblestone road for 1000s of feet. We'd recommend the bus ride -- but Morretes itself was really hot and could have used a few bars. The city of Curitiba, we haven't had enough of. We spent today at the botanical gardens, which were lovely (and free) and then we went to the Oscar Niemeyer museum. Our friends Ron and Andre told us to temper our expectations - but we didn't- and it was still better than we expected. Caipirinhas and fries afterwards at the Sunset bar where we obliged and stayed for sunset and then a 9 minutes uber home past murals and sculptures and city life. We are headed to the coast tomorrow, but we will be back to Curitiba in about a week to get a little bit more.
