First things first...FINALLY! SUUUUUN!
This morning, we got the chance to travel up hill to see the infamous cristo redentor. What a view!!! The statue was quite a treat too!
After cristo redentor, we hopped on the bus to the suburbs of Rio. Have a mentioned how insane the traffic is here?? It took us an hour and a half to travel due to the clustered streets and crazy, but I say, smart drivers :) they have less accidents then we do in the US!
In the suburbs, we were honored with the opportunity to visit a religious community where women victims of violence went to be educated, empowered, and rebuilt. We were entertained with a drum show, samba lessons, and got to taste food prepared by the women there! It was inspirational as well as an emotional experience....
