Ricardo came to Rio to visit me on my last (and in Brazil a long one, due to the "Nossa Senhora Aparecida"-holiday) weekend. On Thursday: rain, on Friday: more rain, on Saturday: cloudy, on Sunday: SUN SUN SUN and 33°C. So we took advantage.
To get to the Sugar Loaf you need to take the cable car. Here you see the version from 1919 (or something near that date). Find the yellow man in the yellow car. 
And THAT's how the cable car looks today on his way from Urca-Station to Sugar-Loaf-Station.
And that's how Sugar Loaf looks from Urca-Hill (the frist cable-car station). Well, and my man in front of the Sugar Loaf.
Me and the center of Rio from the Urca-Hill, before going on to the Sugar Loaf.
The "post-card"-view from Sugar Loaf. Copacabana. The (very tiny) red arrow shows where my apartment is. More or less at least.
