  1. Tragedy in Teresópolis12-1-2011 To give a sense of real tragedy affected only in the district of Posse Teresópolis, I took my bike on 14.1.2011 and photographed what I encountered on the path until you reach the community of Campo Grande - Supermarket located after Induction, three days after the tragedy that destroyed part of the city. Residents say a huge wave devastated the neighborhood and its beautiful sites. Virtually all dwellings to the highway right of possession (toward the end of the quarter) were either flooded or destroyed (collapsed or were buried).
