guyana anyone?

Hello Everyone!! We woke up in St. Lucia, went to the airport and was guided through the process with relative ease, Thanks Zookie. We flew 1 hour to Grenada to get gas and then customs....again. Which took over 2 hours with us running around the humid airport like chickens. It was something like this, fill this out, go there, oops don't have the right papers, then a long moment of finding out our options, then go file a flight plan, but you can't get into that office unless you go through immigration and get your bags checked, then 2 or 3 times more of that then we were able to go. Then we were off to Georgetown, Guyana, where we arrived 3 hours later. Customs? Was a breeze, very nice people. We even made a friend and swapped addresses. Now we are in a hotel and got settled in minutes before a down pour. We are going to try to enter Brazil tomorrow!!!!

We've flown 31 hours total from home to here, we've gone through 6 countries already, in 1 week and 1 day. Not too bad....

Have a good Easter weekend everybody!! We will miss the Penner family reunion, we'll be there next time.

Bye for now...

ps...we decided today after the chaos of customs to not land in Suriname...as they require a visa to enter the country, and even though we wanted to refuel there, we just didn't want to take the risk. So from here to either Belem or if we don't get that far, we will land in French Guiana, in Cayenne...
