Visit Rio de Janeiro by satellite........

View a one metre resolution picture of Rio and zoom in to whatever area you want.

This photo is about a year or so old, because the construction of the new metro station in Copacabana beside my apartment is not finished yet in the picture.....and when I was last at our place in January....everything was up and running. Also, the Fokker 100 twin jets belonging to TAM which are on the tarmac at Santos Dumont have been out of service for at least that long.
