Mild, sunny winter day in Rio with afternoon highs of 26°C and virtually no rain, perfect for a beach morning and outdoor afternoon.
Football dominates tonight with Botafogo v Santos in the Brasileirão and Flamengo in a high-profile friendly drawing crowds to bars across the city.
Brazilian markets closed yesterday with the real stable and Bovespa broadly tracking global risk sentiment, with no major local data releases today.
Best use of the day: slow beach or lagoon morning, museum in the afternoon, and festa junina or football in the evening.
