Oi Oi from Rio!
... as part of an organised group which included transport there and back which was good as the club was near one of the favelas. However when we arrived and saw the price we could have paid to get in if we had just arrived by ourselves and not as part of a group - we could have saved another 40 Reals! What Rip! Nevermind!
