The Preperations

I looks so easy! Get on the ship and get pampered for 36 days.

"BUT"

First we have to get shoots. Fun!!!
I turns out we have to get "Yellow Fever, Hep "A" imunization and Malaria pills. Of course non of this is covered by our health system. $$$$

Then you need medical and travel cancellation and interuption insurance! $$$$

Then of all things we need to get a Visa to get into Brazil. The process for this seem unduly complicated. It turns out that just about everybody in the world can go to Brazil without a Visa but Canadians and US citicens are singled out for this special privelage. This looks like a fund raising project for Brazil as US citisens are charged by far the most for the pivelige to travel to Brazil $$$$$.
