Brazil Trip





On the trip to the airport my little man was blowing me kisses, it was so sweet. Had an enjoyable and productive trip to Brazil. Spent 3 days in Rio and a couple of days in Sao Paulo. Rio is such a picturesque city, particularly when you get up onto one of the mountains. I arrived on Sunday morning so was able to get out and do some hiking. This time I only climbed part of the sugar loaf mountain and took the easy route. Saw quite a few monkeys taking in the view, fortunately no scratches from these ones. I enjoyed getting back to my boys by the end of it.

Michelle in Brazil




While Les watched the Formula One Grand Prix final from home, Michelle traveled to the host nation of Brazil (doesn't seem right...she doesn't even like racing!).

Les prepped her on the status of the championship so she was conversant with the cabbies in Rio and Sao Paulo.
Although the real purpose was (apparently) business Michelle was able to see the sights of Ipanema Beach (where bikinis are mandatory!) and the 120' tall "Christ the Redeemer" statue overlooking Rio.
