If your friend / engineer made an "asa-delta" (hang glider) jump from Rio, I bet 100 Reais that it was from Tijuca. Highest point in Rio with a platform to do such a thing. Climbed it years ago as it is a national park.
Next time you see him, mention Tijuca (said pretty much the way it is spelled /Tijuka). I am sure he'll freak out as it is NOT very tourist-friendly. Beautiful beyond words, though.
Wow! BEAUTIFUL!! Hopefully someday I'll be able to see for myself how gorgeous Brazil is! The engineer that fixes one of our analyzers is from Brazil and he has shown me so many amazing pictures. Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. He also went hang gliding and showed me the video from the camera attached to him - so awesome!
@ Necro - I'm sorry to hear that you are now single, but glad that you are happier!

All excused in my eyes. Just hope you are happy and doing well.
For your entertainment (and to put up when you make your meal from Brazil) a single pic from the other side of the Bay of Guanabara. Pretty dangerous spot to pull out a camera but the view was just too much. The "flying saucer" object you see is the MAC (Modern Art Museum) on the side of Niterói where I took the shot. Look to the upper right and you'll see Corcorvado (statue of Christ) all lit up. Rare shot. As I say, violent city across the bay. View of Rio is just the greatest, though.
Cheers, mate.
