My trip to Manaus 2022 January departing from Fortaleza. I usually stay some few days here when going to Panama.
Manaus 2022 January – Goals
My goals for this trip were:
- stay some few days to rest in the way to Panama;
- visit again some nice places I’ve been before.
Manaus is a modern bit city in the middle of Amazon Forest.
And also in the middle between Fortaleza and Panama, so whenever possible, I spend some few days here, to cut the flight time and the jet lag, as Manaus is one hour late from the rest of Brazil.
The bad news at that time was that Covid hasn’t stopped.
Omicron variant is wide spreading, but I decided not to cancel the trip because I have just bought the tickets to Panama, was vaccinated and more… got Covid at the beginning of the month!
Usually, I stay close to Teatro Amazonas. I appreciate the nightlife and the food.
Hint: in front of Teatro Amazonas, there is an excellent pizza of Tucumã (a typical amazon fruit) at Splash restaurant.
Conclusion
This is just a stop while going to Panama, but I like to stay some few days here.
This city was in 2021 January one of the most affected by Covid in Brazil.
It hurts me that I saw so few people wearing masks after all they passed.
