Our first couple days in Manaus, we really just had to acclimate to the humidity and heat. It´s the port city for the Amazon and not much more, but it has air conditioning and was a good place for us to get our supplies in order, buy our hammocks, and get used to drinking tons of water. It might have been more fun if we had our luggage and weren´t subjecting the Brazilians to our same grungy clothes and shampoo-less selves the whole time. The Opera House his amazing as our some of the other older buildings which are relics of the rubber-boom times. The market was also a ton of fun- bustling vendors rhythmically throwing banana bunches and chopping up giant fish.
