MANAUS

8. May 2011

As well as Belem, Manaus was only a short stop for organization. From here we wanted to go to the amazonian jungle for a few days. We checked the internet for jungle trips before and there were many different lodges and tours. And deciding is not my strength. In Manaus we talked to someone from the tour agency in our hostel and decided that that's much better than booking a tour online. After we booked the tour it was time to get food and explore the city. Manaus is the largest city in the Amazon but not much was happening. There was a food market in one of the streets and we got sandwiches from a very friendly lady that was happy to practice her English vocabulary with us. It was Sunday afternoon and there was not much going on in the city. The streets were very empty and few people walked around so we went back to the hostel. For dinner we went to one of the very few restaurants that were open on Sunday night near the famous Amazon Theater.
