Pictureque Parque Lage (Jan ´10)

This beautiful park is a short 5 minute walk from our home. It´s our favourite place to explore in Rio!


The park contains many wonderful areas...the aquarium, whose residents include amazonian parana,


...a bat cave, sure you want to go in there Jasmine and Rory?




... a Princess castle and hundreds of wild roots scaling down, perfect for climbing.

          
If you´re lucky, you might even meet the other residents of the park, who are always looking for a banana going spare.

The natural waterfall encourages all sorts of inhabitants to prosper ...




The beautiful colonial building hosts delicious breakfast and lunches, and also contains an art school ...


which allows for great views of Cristo himself up on the Corcovado mountain.


What more could we ask for...? xxxx
