Looking out in Ipanema

Beautiful, strong, dramatic skyline when we turned the corner into Ipanema tonight. Just managed to take a few quick pics when Eduardo, the guy we bought the flat from, cycled past and stopped to chat. We're noticing that Brasilians generally ask questions about finances quite freely and after the usual chit chat he asked us, 'how much are you paying for the labour costs for the flat?' We always take a deep gulp before answering these questions as there's always the chance that as foreigners, you've accepted a sillly price. He didn't laugh in our faces, so that's a relief!
