Copacabana Beach

Our hotel (over my shoulder)

Rooftop pool and snacks

View from the pool

View of the wealth from the front

View of the favelas (ghetto) from the back

Do I really have to fly BUSINESS home?  

What happened to FIRST?  Are we poor??

Eye Candy

Had some requests to expand on my last blog...

Ipanema

Well, we never saw "The Girl From Ipanema", 

but we did see a few guys...

Everyone wears a Speedo....I mean EVERYONE!!

...and the view was amazing as well!

Jesus Christ!!

Just arrived at Corcovado Mountain...

I heard there is some famous statue here.

How many friggin' steps are there?

Oh wait, I think I see him!

Nope, I was wrong...THERE HE IS!!

Christ, what a view Christ has...

Stupido Toursitos!!

I sense a Christmas card...

Rio Sightseeing

Our first stop this morning was Sugarloaf Mountain...

The view of Copacabana Beach is amazing.

You are actually higher than a landing plane.

Birds, birds and more birds

 

Brazilian Side

I know, I know...more pictures of the waterfalls....

but these are from another country, Brazil.

Our guide taught us that this gesture in Brazil
