I visited this hotel with the kids, well less Eric at that time.

You want a real jungle experience, you got it.

By the way NO BUGS!

No bugs? Can't be. Yes, no bugs. The water is acid due to all the trees that are covered by water. The bugs can not reproduce.

Very cool place. You are slowly wearing me down on the Chile, Argentina, Brazil Idea. I wonder what it would take to make that happen. Hmmmm.

Scott,

I am very buys at work these days.
Bob and Peggy are on the standby for me to give them details. So they can think seriously about it.
Cost to ship the trucks, visas, itinerary, etc.
I have to get this going soon if not we will be late.

After I post more information you will be able to better judge.
Ideally, we would combine 2 couples going in one truck. We will talk more.

</div>It's getting more interesting. As I said elsewhere, if there are seats we'll come, could help to bring cost to reasonable levesl if we don't need to many vehicles.

Can't wait to jump in the acid. Wish I had know about this place before I got my vasectomy. Sounds like a much more pleasant time.

Oh man, that is what I get for sharing cool information with you guys.

Good friends are like stars... You don't always see them, but you always know they're there.

By the way, is acid really legal in Brazil?

[JackSilb]

Somewhat legal if it is natural.

Jack,

All kidding aside, this place looks quite enticing. I'm ready for a green adventure. However, time is flying. We would need to know all the specifics soon. I like Uwe's idea to share trucks/expenses. That may make it more feasible.
