Our home in Barra da Tijuca.
Along the beach, near home. Cycling path, drink stands,
exercise stations,
and big sand sculptures (with internal LED lighting powered by the stationary bicycle).
We made a few visits to Santa Teresa.
Domingos' shop.
This may not look like a modern, clean city (as does most of Rio), but it's actually just the aftermath of a lively morning food market, and within an hour or two the streets will be swept and washed.

The whole thing is lit up by banks of LEDs!
Amazing.
The Moon and Jesus.
Emmanuel is inspiring too.
It's pretty stunning at night, actually, and from far away across town.
