Jungle Lagoons & Acai!! After a much needed sleep I was up early with Amanda as Po's bus had arrived early and we needed to pick her up from the bus station. It was so nice to see Po again and she had made some friends on the bus that were also headed to Venezuela. Amanda my host was very kind and helped Po's new friends organise a taxi to Santa Elena. Amanda, Po and I then headed to the Sunday market in Boa Vista where we brought some fruits, vegetables and ...

Worst Road Known to Man!! And so it was- one incredibly uncomfortable night crammed in the van traveling some of the worst roads I have ever layed eyes on.

It was here on the river ferry I met a couple from Denmark who are livin...

Where The Hell is Macapa!!! Both Cecile and Roberto had to work today so after a little sleep-in I went for a walk around the apartment and to the supermarket; amazingly the prices are even higher then in the rest of Brazil and the fruit is unbelievably expensive. After some lunch and a chat with Cecile before she headed back to work; I figured I would go for a walk to the riverside and see the famous Portuguese fort. The heat was intense and by the time I arrive...
