Day 32 (481 km)
Had to do my
immigration and bike papers, so 8 am I was standing in front of the Federales
to get our entry stamp for 90 days for Brazil. Then went to the custom office
and after running around for 2 hours, we had all the necessary documents and
took off for the Amazon river and according different people between 6 and 12
hours away. The first 50 km went on a good highway, then the red dust dirt road
showed up for another 100 km, so we were covered again in red mole dust and it
was 35 degree in the shade, almost ready to die from the heat. After several stops to get cold water, we
reached a brand new road to Macapa what was 400 km away and were finally
testing the speed of our bikes and just before dark rolled into Porto Grande
about hundred km away from Macapa, 
where we should catch a barge or boat to
Belem, hopefully tomorrow!
