Hotel Regente Belem

... guys I met in Alter Do Chão decided to paint the town red. We were recommended a club called Dubai, from the outside the music sounded decent enough so went through the security search formalities and hit the dance floor. Within seconds we noticed that we were around 10 years older, half a foot taller and 50 shades whiter than the average person in there… needless to say we blended in a treat! After about an hour we called it a night and ...

... comfort of Spanish América. Portuguese is rather tricky and we´ve been reduced to levels of communication fit only for small children and special olympians. Nonetheless we´re enjoying ourselves and doing what we can to pick up on the local parlance. We reached a minor obstacle in our vehicular journey in the port city of Manaus. The problem is that we were unable to drive across the Amazon river. I suggested we ford the river, like in that ...

... why. Unless our superb Portuguese let us down and we ordered it completely wrong (which is possible remembering how the toothless man at the shop laughed when we ordered), it was disgusting. Half a litre of cold purple slop, tasting like sandy water. Not good. <br><br>Back at the hostel we cooked out padkos for the next day. Boiled eggs, potato salad and fried (yes, the oven didn't work) garlic and cheese pizza. Hmm, hmm, hmm, our fellow ...

... the only blonde ones... We were quite the staring point to say the least. Even a little girl took about 2 days to approach us and then poke our skin when we weren't looking!<br><br>There are not many things in life that are hard to describe, but the sheer vastness of the Amazon river is one of those things. To sail for 1500km, 24 hours a day for 4 days and consistenly see the shore on one side about 2km away ...
