Rio de Janeiro 1: Flying

Okay, I had a really hard time getting the order right on these pictures. So bear with it, they're way out of order.

Getting hooked up. Toby's holding the camera.

Toby staring off to the great beyond...and the only golf course I've seen in Brazil (so far).

Wheeeee! There goes Toby. He was the first person of the day to jump.

In the back left is Two Brothers (Dois Irmaos) and on the other side of that mountain are the beaches of Ipanema, Copacobana, the Sugarloaf, all that famous stuff.

Thereeeee he goooooes!

Me, getting ready to fly. 

After the flight/landing on the beach.

This is the ramp I jumped off of...it was really steep. But not like jumping...because you sort of just run and then you run out of land beneath your feet. 

Before we took off. Straight from the airport (from Brasilia) to the beach to a cliff!

 

The beach we landed on. It was a misty morning. This picture's actually from before we took off.

See that neat cliff behind? We didn't actually jump off that. But close! This is where we parked.
