Today we left Iguacu to come to Rio. We landed at 9.00am and got taken to a amazing apartment. This photo is the view from our apartment out to the sea and onto Leblon beach. The next beach around from us is a very famous beach called Copacabana which some of you may know the song.

Today the first thing we did was go to the sugarloaf mountains. This mountain is the higher one called Pao de Acucar which is aproximently 396 metres above the ground. The smaller mountain is called Morro da Urca and that is only 220 metres high. The distance between Pao de Acucar and Morro da Urca is 735 metres.

To get from the ground to the mountain and from mountain to mountain the only way is to catch a cable car. These cable cars where pretty amazing and climbing heights of 200 and 100 metres. Overall today was a great day that was really fun ready for a great day at the Rio beaches tommorow.
