My Adventures in Rio de Janeiro - Day 4

On Tuesday, Marcia took us to Pao de Acucar (Sugarloaf Mountain). This mountain sits in the middle of the bay area. You can see it from many points of the city. It is a popular tourist attraction. You ride a cable car from the ground to the top of a smaller mountain. On top of the smaller Mtn there is a recreation area with refreshments, theater (or place for live concerts), etc.
From the smaller mtn, you ride another cable car up to the top of Sugarloaf. The views are magnificent. It is amazing how populated the area is.
This is a view riding the cable car from the ground.

This is me, of course.
