you head to rio? >> i literally went looking for the mosquitoes because i was worried about it and i wanted to check it out myself and i found one in a fruit bowl. other than that, things have been looking good here. initially i was nervous coming to rio. after speaking with locals, tourist and checking things out for myself it's not that b week, one of the first sights that caught my eye wasn't the seen ride sharing, it was the security. officers can be seen on just about every street corner surrounding the games i equipped

outside of olympic park we ran into paula checking out the sights with her family. >> my daughter and husband, we came to see the park. it's beautiful. >> paula said she noticed a difference in security around here. in july more than 85,000 troops were deployed. >> tourist agree. >> people are all very friendly. they all want -- >> crews are out in full force to finish bridges, venues and put the final touches on the mega store set to open this weekend. this enthe other concern, the zika virus. but if you ask paula, she say >> zika here, i never heard about that. we know that we have zika in brazil but not in rio. it's ok we don't have this. >> as you guys probably know the threat of zika has diminished because we're in the winter months in south america and when temperatures are cool ter pop relation of mosquitoes does
