Limited Hammock Accommodations

I just reserved a hammock, for September, on the support boat for

The Great River Amazon Raft Race 2008!

There are the luxury accommodations for viewing the race on the “Dawn on the Amazon III,” the half price accommodations on the “Dawn on the Amazon I,” and then there are the cramped, uncomfortable accommodations aboard the support boat, where I reserved a spot. This should be an incredible opportunity for photos and stories…plus a really cheap Amazon cruise!

HERE is a nice blog entry about the race by Bill Grimes.
