Cidade Maravilhosa

The Cristo Redentor statue looks over Favela do Pavão.
Sunset from my brothers window.

I'm back from Rio after a weekend off some work and loads of carnaval...the city is already full of music and carnaval has taken over the streets. Some of the most famous organizations ( Blocos as we call them ) are charging there batteries for the four days off official celebrations. Only these weekend, Suvaco do Cristo, Bola Preta, Espanta Nenem, Imprensa and others where out making noise and bringing people together to celebrate...the atmosphere in the city was amazing. Yes, "O Rio de janeiro continua lindo"!!

If you have the chance to go..please don't thing again.
