Taguatinga views -

Here are some views from the top of my hotel in Taguatinga.

View from hotel during sunrise.

At sunrise

There are very few left hand turns, but lots of circles, round-abouts, and u-turns.  This picture does not represent the traffic (as it's about 7am), there are so many cars on the road to Brasilia in the morning.  Without traffic it takes about 15-20 minutes, with traffic it can be an hour plus.  Driving is interesting here, after being here I understand why Brazilians are winning automobile racing events!

There is lots of new buildings going in around Taguatinga and Brasilia.  These are new apartments that I was told would cost the equivalent of $400,000 USD, very expensive!  People buy and rent apartments in Brazil.

So this is the pool at the top of the hotel.  Different than most pools at hotels in the states!  Look at the picture below and the warning.  It goes along with the saying "Here's your sign!"  It makes you wonder if someone tried diving in to 2.6 feet of water and was injured! Seems obvious to me, but no different than the states!
