We were all so sad to leave the rain forest. It had been an amazing few days. Yes, we were excited about having a shower, wearing clean clothes, sleeping in a bed and having our phones.....but we really had had such a special time together. We went back to Manaus late afternoon and went straight to the opera house (what was another couple of hours without a shower when daylight was fading?!).
The opera house is so impressive. It was built after the rubber boom, and is so grand.

Manaus itself was a bit of a strange city. There were a few really beautiful buildings, but so many ugly ones!
We had a look around a gallery before showers and naps beckoned! Our group met up for dinner and drinks later on in the city. It was funny seeing everyone showered and fresh!
