After immersing ourselves in Old San Juan’s vibrant culture, savoring cubano sandwiches, and indulging in mofongo for four sun-kissed days, we restarted our journey early this morning.
Unstoppable Duo
Dobri, sporting his iconic Texan hat, decided to join me for the southernmost leg, making long flight hours more enjoyable.
Brazil Bound with Grenada Refuel
Initial goal: Boa Vista, Brazil (SBBV). However, fierce winds reduced fuel efficiency (despite impressive 7gph). Facing 1-gallon reserves, we adjusted plans mid-flight. We diverted to Grenada (TGPY), did little paperwork since it was no official entry, fuel, bio-break, and back to the skies.
Entering South America
Crossing into Guyana, the landscape contrast stunned us. Majestic cloud formations towered above the hot land.
Next Legs
Tomorrow: Alta Floresta (SBAT), potentially Campo Grande (SBCG). Final leg: San Fernando (SADF). Weather permitting, arrival Saturday or Sunday.
