June 2006:  Guided trip to Brazil a success

David and his then wife Ly led a 2-week trip to Brazil, where participants had the chance to experience some of the most spectacular settings in the continent.  Having traveled extensively throughout Brazil in the past, they always thought that they would love to share all they had seen in that amazing country with others.  They are really happy to have had the opportunity to do just that!

Some of the more exciting items in the itinerary included a visit to Iguassu Falls and the largest remaining area of sub-tropical forest that surrounds the falls, staying at a lodge in the Amazon jungle, nighttime alligator spotting, swimming with wild pink dolphins in the Amazon, and a "safari" into the Pantanal, the largest continental wetland on Earth, where some 650 bird, 80 mammal, 260 fish, and 50 reptile species make their home.

The itinerary was designed to introduce visitors to a few of this vast country's highlights, giving them a taste of its diversity and natural beauty. The weather could not have been more perfect, the food was wonderful, and the group seemed to have truly enjoyed themselves.  Some of the comments overheard during the trip included: "this, right here, is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen;" and "it has been the trip of a lifetime."
