A downpour in Salvador, Bahia in July.

Right after the rain ended, the sun came out and the beaches were ready for relaxing on again.

The view of the Elevator and Mercado Modelo from the top.

The sun setting at the end of the street in Barra, Salvador.

Statues of the Orixas on a lake. Beautiful

Soccer at the stadium in Salvador.

Pao de Acucar in Rio!

Sunset in Botafogo and 3 boats gliding across the water.

Christ the Redeemer standing over Rio at the top of Corcovado. (The statue is really tiny, but you can see it at the top of the mountain)

At the Park! An oasis on green in a concrete city.

Something to keep me warm until summer!
