Rio de Janeiro — A cloudy and warm Monday in Rio with a light south breeze keeping the humidity in check, ideal for walking the city’s open-air gardens.
The day’s cultural headline is the free-entry Real Gabinete Português de Leitura, open from 10am in a quiet Centro emptied of the working crowd.
In business, Wall Street rallied on Friday with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both higher, while the Brazilian real firmed against the dollar as noted on the board.
A Monday made for low-key discovery: historic reading rooms, botanical walks, and a sunset over the bay.
