Rio! PART 1

hey blog, hey!

sheesh.

there is so much to write about. my brother sam, his wife kaori and their handsome son wil were here last week during carnival. it.was.a.blast. we first went to rio on tuesday and stayed for two days. daniel had to work til friday which made it three on three. having three little ones in a crazy city like rio was insane. but really fun insane. coordinating naps, nursing, meals, snacks, throw up, heat stroke, tantrums, crazy almost two year old cousins, giant cameras, two strollers, and big waves was a full time ordeal. but completely worth it.

we pulled up to our hotel and checked into the most beautiful suite facing copacabana beach. our view was breathtaking. we threw our bags down and all went out to the balcony to soak it in.

the weather. well, it was dreamy. something about the ocean breeze feels totally right. we immediately put our swim gear on and walked across the street and sat our little bums on the beach. (that rymes).

rio was such a fun city. huge. just the way i like cities. the energy of it made me miss new york.

the second day we were there we headed to pão de açúcar (sugar loaf mountain). we took cable cars to the top and saw an incredible view of rio.

wil and henry were quite the duo on the trip. we would come home for the night, throw them in the tub and then they run and giggle till the very last bit of energy was used up. they were very cute together. 

the view from our room at night.

dear cpoa, you never got old.

love us.
