Corcovado and Urca

So, the next day we decided to actually head UP to Corcovado for an upclose look at this statue. It wasn't anything like the helicopter flight, but still an amazing thing to do while we were in Rio. This is Liz and I before heading on the tram the mountain. It as a solid few hours to wait in line, get the tickets, and hten wait for your boarding time. SO, we walked the streets a bit and grabbed some lunch before boarding our tram.

Corcovado from the base. It looks a little different from here than in the helicopter











After a full day of Corcovado, we decided to head back to the condo and relax by the pool. The next day we went back to Urca. This time, we took the tram ALL the way up. No hiking, and no half way points :)
