Our Trip to South America


Our flight to São Paulo, Brazil was ten hours, then a two hour flight to Asunción, Paraguay.


We picked up our rental car, a Kia Soluto, at Silvio Pettirossi Airport, near Asunción


Driving through a rain storm to our hotel on Avenida Aviadores del Chaco.


Our hotel, the Holiday Inn Express Asunción Aviadores


After the long journey we were ready for some hot food so we went to a little place next to the hotel, Tierra Del Mar Resto.


J. had the Tiratas de Pollo con Mandioca Frita and I had the Sandwich de Lomito de Pollo. 10,000 gs is about $1.30 USD.

The view from the top of the hotel of Asunción at night


Our hotel room was clean and comfortable, with lots of pillows!


The view from top by the pool in the daylight. It was 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and cloudy, too cold to swim.


Breakfast at the hotel was awesome, with lots of local fruit and pastries, every morning.

The coffee in Paraguay was excellent, and I was in dire need of it the first morning!
