NBC 5's Brian Curtis is in Rio de Janeiro, reporting for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games.
On Monday, Brian took us on a bird's eye view of the sprawling city from atop the Corcovado. Later, we headed down to the white sands of Copacabana beach, with a stop at a Texas Connection in the famous Selaron Steps.
Tuesday, Brian was busy sharing even more the sights and sounds from Brazil.
Wednesday, Brian snapped some photos showing crews putting final touches on Olympic venues. Later, Brian and the NBC 5 team beamed their first live reports from the center of the Olympic Park.
Thursday, Brian reported as more athletes, fans and media crews converged on Rio.
On Friday, the Opening Ceremony officially kicks off the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
