Day 7 Rio de Janiero!

Today we got to go to Rio de Janiero! Rio is a fun city...so much life, color, and soul. We went to the botanical gardens where we saw beautiful gardens, ponds, greenhouses, and forests. Along the route through the forest, we ran into some locals, (Check out pic below). After checking out the gardens, we headed over to Impanema Beach and walked the promenade from Impanema Beach to Copacabana Beach to check out all the sights. An agua de coco (coconut water) fresh out of the coconut was the reward for such a long walk.

   

Look at the to top of the  mountain...you can see the Christ statue that has made the city so famous
