Vacation: back to Rio - Jardim Botânico - Jul 2010

Back to Rio: some more of our beautiful home town. Here is a visit to the Botanical Gardens, which is also the name for the neighborhood of my childhood. This visit was done during the last weekend of the children's vacation in Brazil. (I was already back home!). They had a chance to play with Arthur and 'Juju', son and daughter of Lulu and Venicio (Bernardo's godparents).

Still vacation... Brasília - Jul 2010

As part of the visit to the Center-west of Brazil, we definitely had to visit the nation's capital, which this years completes 50 years old! Brasilia was a contrast to 4 days spent in Pirenopolis, but a very interesting visit.

More vacation... Pirenopolis - Days 1 & 2

As promised, more videos from our wonderful trip to Brazil in July. In this post, first two days of our stay in Pirenopolis, GO. A historical city close to Brasilia, in the middle of the beautiful Brazilian 'Cerrado' (somewhat similar to a savanna). Beautiful water fall and lots of trails.
