Pao de Acucar


Pao de Acucar

Here's another view of Rio, taken from a cable car to Pao de Acucar, an amazing surprise arranged for us on our first day in Rio. To get to the top takes two connecting cable cars. Heights make me nervous, but I was so excited to be in Brasil, the company was great, and I wasn't about to miss this. Still, I wasn't sure if I would be able to breathe, let alone take pictures. But the camera provided a focus, and calmed me down. I am so glad I went! Now, whether its a New York skyscraper, a castelo in Lisbon, a cliff in Northern Ireland, or a castle wall in Scotland, I carry a camera. More art, less fear.
