Rio!

Not the best photo day as I was getting ready for my trip to Rio coming up soon. I'm excited as I've never been to South America before! I hear there is a lot of crime in Rio, so I bought a secure camera strap so my camera can't be sliced off me. I also got a new battery for my old Canon Powershot. I will most likely replace this camera when I return, but I decided to wait in case it got stolen!

Have a safe trip, and a wonderful time.

Oh, you need to get a little Pink Martini going. China Forbes belting out "Braaaaaazil" should set the mood. (Or maybe I'm projecting.) Have fun and be safe! Will you be posting pictures of your travels while you're away?

I went to Rio once and heard all those same stories but not one bad thing happened. A fun city with friendly people and great sidewalk cafes. Lucky you, Maya!

sally: Thanks!!

d.c.: Thanks for the tip. I will definitely add Pink Martini to my little music player. I'm glad you reminded me! I don't know yet if I can post while gone. I hope so, or it will be a lot of work when I get back!

cynthia: I hope I have the same experience as you! I'm looking forward to it.

dusty: Thanks! I'm pretty sure I will have problems with jet lag when I return. Hopefully I will be able to handle it!
