The Best Water Slide Ever!!

We went to a place called Parati. We had soo much fun. We took a jeep tour that took us to a water fall and this AWESOME rock slide. There was a guy sliding down the rock and the kids proceeded to ask when it was going to be their turn, I told them I was sure they wouldn't be able to do it, it was cold, and a little dangerous, as I was proceeding to tell the kids this, Marcus was helping them take their shoes off. Well needless to says I lost!! But I have to say I am glad I did, they had a great time despite the cold water. Lucas was the only one who got over to the slide a decided it was not a good idea (he is more like me then he knows!!) The picture really doesn't do the slide justice. I took more video than pictures but I did manage to get this one of Madison playing the Damsel in Distress, she is not stupid!! She had that boy jumping through hoops for her!! We had a great time.

What A Sand Castle

So we went out one night and on our way back we spotted this sand castle, we had to stop to take pictures of it....N0t sure how long it took the guy to make but WOW!! There are a few along the beaches here, I will try to get different ones so you all can enjoy.

Reasons To Love Brazil

We went to visit the Pao de Acucar/Sugar Loaf and took a cable car to the top it was so AWESOME!! The view was breath taking!! It was just about sunset and a little cloudy but the pictures we took turned out great. I will miss this, and I am so glad we did it. When I think back on Brazil, I know that I will think of these things and not the traffic which I complain about every time I am in the car!!

We also have been to the beach a lot but I thought I would share the latest pictures I took. It is hard to believe that we live so close to all this, only a block away, I have to remember how lucky we are to be living in such a beautiful place.
