Urca Hill - the first step to Sugar Loaf

Unfortunately, it was a hazy day, so most of the photos aren't nearly as good as they could have been. We took two cable cars to get to the top of Sugar Loaf. The first goes up Urca Hill where I took these photos:


The old cable cars.






These kids were doing Capoeira. They were fun to watch!



This neighborhood is called Urca and is where the rich people live. It's at the base of Sugar Loaf.



School Girls (I'm assuming Catholic).



You can see Corcovado in the background.
