Saturday's Turtle Art Day is in Caacupe, 30 km from Asuncion. A bus is being provided. See registration below.
== Registration ==

== Paraguay ==
Visas are not required for most US, Canada, Europe.
My advice on phoning the embassy is that Australian and New Zealand citizens need a visa [http://www.mre.gov.py/australia/csVisa.htm]which costs US$135 for Australians or US$140 New Zealanders. The embassy is in Canberra and processing takes 2-5 days plus mailing time. However Wikipedia indicates that you can get a visa on arrival at the Asuncion main airport [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_policy_of_Paraguay#Oceania] this may be true and the phone advice incomplete or Wikipedia may be out of date.
