dairygirl4u2c Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 (edited) Beenabobba or anyone that knows. Where is that statue in your icon from? It's really cool! I'm pretty sure in South America somewhere but not sure where. Thanks! Edited May 31, 2004 by IcePrincessKRS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quietfire Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 (edited) Oh wow, I was just thinking of that statue. Funny that you mentioned it. I think its in Rio in Brazil.. I read a book years ago about a woman who was involved in a plane crash on the side of a mountain here in the U.S. The book is about how she scaled down this mountain and across a desert to find help. Everyone else on the plane died. But during the course of one of her days, she remembers seeing a man on what she thought was a balcony on a house, with his hands outstretched almost as if stetching himself. She cried out to him and ran as best as she could, but she lost sight of him and he vanished. But she continued in the direction she saw the man, thinking she would see him again. I remember that story because after she was rescued, she was retelling the story of the man on the balcony and someone bought out a picture to show her and she cried "that's him!" It is a huge statue in Rio (if I remember correctly) The name of the book is called, "And I only survived." Its a statue of Christ.

Ash Wednesday Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 It's Cristo Redentor in Rio de Janeiro, on top of Corcovado mountain. I've been there!!! He's bigger than the Statue of Liberty! P.S. Don't you mean beena[b]bobba[/b]? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
