 Our first attempt at entry failed. Americans/Dominicans need a visa, Brits can enter at will. So rather than leave Arelis at the border, we will bounce back around. Second attempt with visa from Bs As we managed to bounce around southern Brazil.

No Entry. We bounced along 500km of bad road in Bolivia to get to Brazil. At the border there is no customs or immigration its an hour up the road in tbe nearest town. Here we found out that US citizens and Dominican Republic citizens need visas. UK ciitzens can come and go as they please. So, as Arelis had no visa, back over the 500km bad road we travelled ..... |

28th March - 3rd April 2007 | Bs As, Argentina allowed us to sort out Arelis' Brazilian visa and having put Hopper in a container ready to ship back to the US we thought we would bounce around Brazil while Hopper was in tansit. A hire car from Sau Paulo took us to the Pantanal a huge water logged area (10x the size of the Everglades) full of wildlife the most noticeable of which being capybaras, the worlds largest rodents. |

5th April - 9th April 2007 | Iguacu Falls - very impressive waterfalls on the Brazillian/ Argentinian border, all photos for both sides are here. Great wildlife - Coatis, Caymens, and lots of birds etc, but most impressive were the vast variety of butterflies. Near the falls is the world's largest hydro electric plant too. |

12th April - 5th April 2007 | Rio De Janerio, and more specifically Cocacabana was a little tired but JC on the hill, SugarLoaf Mountain and Ipanema were impressive. We also checked out some islands just up the coast. Afraid there are no photos of golden thonged local machismos. |
