Hotel Gloria

For the last couple days, we stayed at Hotel Gloria, a very swanky, classy hotel. It must have been first class back in the day, and still was, but had historical charm to boot. You just don't find such detail and personality in new hotels. They had 2 pools; one overlooking the city where the Brazilian high classs sipped cocktails and read as they tanned. The other (where Dav and I spent more time) was in a courtyard and had 2 diving boards. I had no idea Dav was such a diver! Made my heart flutter all over!

The last 2 pics are when we (with Daniel) snuck into what must have been some sort of royal evening room with art, velvet sofas, antique statues, and a grand piano. Dav has more pics of us having fun in there.
