Day 26 (215 km)
Left before sunrise to see if we could get a visa for Suriname in Georgetown and had to be there before 11 am. the first 100 km to Linden took almost 3 hours and had red mole dust again up to in our nostrils, but we made it to their embassy. the security officer said no visas are issued on Thursday, but then she said some countries only need a tourist card and we lucky belonged to the very view exempt. Actually I thought Dutch people would have had it more difficult, because we have an arrest warrant against their president for dealing in drugs, but they were all nice, helpful, spoke in Dutch to me and after we paid $ 25.00 each for their tourist card, we checked already at 11 am into our guesthouse downtown. Had Chinese lunch, washed the much needed bikes, all our clothes and even all the saddle bags.
Tomorrow we should enter Suriname around 1 pm on the ferry between Guyana and Suriname and then we will see where we end up!
