Just discovered your blog and amazing photos this morning.
It has been a long time since I visited Rio but it reminded me of a story a local told me of a very, very wealthy eccentric lady who lived in a penthouse facing Copacabana.
She did not want to mix with the general public on Copacabana beach so would send her butler down to the beach daily to fill champagne buckets with seawater which he them had to take up to the penthouse roofgarden and flick seawater at her with his fingers whilst she shreiked with delight!
You do know how to live! What a great scene and panorama.
Never been to Rio And that has got to change! Want to go to Rio Where all the famous hang Right there on the beaches At Le Meridien hotel I think that I see Halcyon But I will never tell!

Re your buying "poo" for your garden: Maybe you should just get a dog? :-)
ReplyDeleteI love this lively picture. I can feel the sea breeze.
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice to get your very own poem! Thanks Lowell! :D
ReplyDeletePS: the garden center where I do recommends sheep poo for the garden.
