Here is a TUBE! These things are awesome. You pay to enter the tube so when the bus comes you just walk right on, "sheltered from the rains and heats" as the video shown to us said.
This is a biarticulated bus. These red buses are the "Express" routes, but there are other "speedy" buses that go faster and only stop every 3km. These red ones have dedicated lanes, which people use for biking (those that bike) despite the fact that signs tell them it is illegal, but the transportation authority had no legal power to fine them. You can see a tube down the left side of the road.
A shot of Alameda Júlia da Costa, the road our hotel is on. This was taken from our hotel's roof, (which is where the pool is!) about 10 stories up.
