Greetings from the Amazon! We reached the mouth of the Amazon River late yesterday, though it's so large in that area (something like 200 miles wide) that you can't see the sides. The only thing that changed is the water (from ocean blue to river brown) and the ship moves much more smoothly in the river. This morning, we have docked briefly in the town of Macapa to deal with immigration/customs, but we do not get off the ship until Tuesday, when we're up river at Manaus. I'll try to post a few tidbits along the river trip and keep you posted...
