2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro

Good news for Rio de Janeiro.

For the first time in history the Olympic Games will be held in South America.

We had a bet here and I've won!!

I'm sure my reasons are different from those of the committee who had to chose.

When I heard Madrid was the other option I know that when there would be a choice between the risk of terrorist attacks and impulsive crowds, the choice would be clear.

One of my friends lives in Rio and I'm sure she's very happy.

I hope life's circumstances of those who live there will improve the coming years.
