COMPASS TRAVEL group visits the AMAZON.  A group from Compass Travel traveled with Holland America Line on a 30-day cruise from Florida down to the Amazon and Manaus and back during November and December.  Steven Johnson accompanied the group and shared two photos.  One in the AMAZON rainforest at the base of a famous huge rainforest tree -- the very tree that James Cameron stood under and envisioned the tree for his movie 'AVATAR'.
