Made it this far.
Guyana immigration was professional but quick. Customs was a breeze and Luke was waiting to pick me up as agreed. Reached the hotel about 02:00 and hit the pillow for 6 hours sleep.
Spent the morning doing the tourist bit and then this afternoon went to the ministry to get permission to enter "the interior". Also there they were efficient and polite and, despite the minister being absent, approved my visit.
Now sat in "the office" catching up on all the "paperwork"

I have been using my Garmin GPS receiver with the actual OpenStreetMap data and it is brilliant. Very complete. Who needs a map?
