| Hi. My wife and I are contemplating a cruise on the Amazon that is supposed to get to Manaus. We were told that the ship could not get that far up due to low waters last year. We were wondering if there is any indication this year that the water levels will be too low. We know there are no guaratees but some chance is better than no chance. Thanks for your input. Joyce & Bill Foyle |
