Lirio

I only visited Paraguay once when I stayed 1 day in Assuncion, the capital. But we know a lot of Paraguay because of a war. The Paraguayan War, when a dictator from Paraguay decided that Paraguay must have access to the Atlantic Ocean and invaded Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. it was 1864, the war lasted up to 1870 and was won by Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay. This was a bloody war. The Paraguay was almost complete destroyed and half the population dyed. Brazil lost 50k, Argentina 18k and Paraguay about 150k (there is a huge debate about this number from Paraguay).

The day we are schedule there are 8 ships due........Almost everything is fully booked.

I hope and pray that SS management will see all these posts before sep. when I will cruise Alaska on the Muse. Will see and take an action! 🙏

I can’t believe you went all the way down to SP and then to Manaus. There are flights from Miami or Panamá to Manaus. Not many, but it would be easier. I like this hotel, and the restaurant is quite good for Manaus standards. I hope you enjoy.

I am also looking for alternatives in Valdez. The good cruise tours are all fully booked.

After the Alaska cruise in September, I am going to Portland for a conference. I will have plenty of time to touring around. Any recommendation will be welcomed.

Are you in Manaus already?

Are you on the Muse? Please, let me know your impression!

Global warming.....😢

Can you suggest some? I will be there in september/24.

We will board the Muse (0,6k guests) on Sep. 2 as well as guests for Norwegian Jewel (2.4k guests) and for Disney Wonder (2.7k guests)! Total of 5.8k guests!

Is it possible that are there Tim Tam in NZ? I will check 16 days and counting....

Great photos!

No Eclipse here.........And I am very busy working + organizing my coming trip to NZ......no time to Eclipse.

Do you know Silversea docks? I will be there in Sep. My main focus is wild life. What would be the best option?
