Brazil - A Land of Contrasts

Or perhaps I should say, "Rio - A City of Contrasts"

I've shown you some of the poverty and mentioned some of the scary, out-of-our-comfort-zone things. Here is some of the beauty of Rio. (So don't feel too sorry for us.)

Looking to the left off our hotel's rooftop balcony. We are on Copacabana Beach.
That mountain is Pao de Sucre (sugar loaf) http://www.copacabana.info/history-of-sugar-loaf.html.

Looking to the left. Over there is Impanema Beach.
