Brazil, Manaus - Hotel
We have found the Pensao Sulista in Av. Joaquim Nabuco, four blocks back from the river. It is a simple, family run pensao with secure bike parking in the enclosed courtyard at the back. We are paying R$40 for a double room with air con, fridge and private bathroom including a simple breakfast (fruit, rolls and coffee). There are cheaper rooms without air con. It is also close to the floating harbour and the beach for finding boats and loading.

Hi friend,
I don't know if this information will be "on time" for you but:
- This cities are big, and have lots of noturn life, you can know lots of things there;
- Bonito is wonderfull, but expensive, because is a touristic city they sell everything for a big price;
- Corumba is on the board of Brazil, on enter is good, but, some people talks about the danger to pass there, because of the drougs route, etc. That I really don't know if is true.
Well, if you want more information, write me please.
A hug,

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
