When Fer and I were married in April 2011 we knew our life and schedule was going to be too busy to take a honeymoon until we were settled here in Argentina. Last month we were able to spend a beautiful week+ in Brazil celebrating our first year of marriage. Here are some photos from our time in Rio and Buzios...
At a beach-side bar our first day in Rio. I am a little foggy-looking from the awful sinus infection and fever that I was dealing with the first few days. Being super sick is a great way to start to a honeymoon! ;)
View from our table
The landscape of Rio is impressive. Also impressive are the immense number of favelas (shanty-towns) on all the hills such as this one:
Ipanema beach
My hubby :)
A look out point on our way up to Cristo Redentor.
Thankfully no clouds at this point of the tour...
Because this is about all you could see at the top:
Fer enjoying coconut water after we biked around the lagoon
View of Leme/Copacabana a couple of blocks from where we were staying
Some monkeys/lemurs (??) on our hike to the top of the military base at the tip of Leme.

For the second part of our trip we stayed in Buzios, a couple of hours north of Rio.
This was the beautiful view from our suite:
Looking the other direction:
During a boat cruise that we took to various beaches around Buzios (there are ~16 beaches in total in Buzios)
We rented a boogie to get around the area and to explore the different beaches.
Here is Fer with our sweet "Babies R Us" boogie ;)
Beautiful view of the sunset from our balcony
One of my favorite spots to relax
The freshly grilled shrimp on the beach was AMAZING!
Celebrating our anniversary on our way back to Buenos Aires. Fer, I love you more and more each day!
