Living the good life
... en het rode kruis en heeft ook haar eigen stichting voor moeders met baby's die hun kindje zelf niet kunnen voeden; de baby's krijgen dan 9 maanden lang flesvoeding. Haar verhalen waren allemaal erg bijzonder en indrukwekkend, dus misschien toch maar overwegen om alsnog naar Iquitos te gaan (ik had dit eigenlijk geschrapt omdat het 'te ver van mijn route' ligt). Dinsdagmiddag ben ik vertrokken naar het busstation, om te beginnen aan de 19-uur durende rit naar Mancora. Ik ...
Marvellous Mancora!
... our group eating there! Most of the group have experienced some sort of dodgy stomach so I think we're all craving good, simple, healthy food!
After lunch we head to the beach to digest, soak up some sun & cool off in the sea.

... to get into the seating area is. Not being 4 ft 10 my knees had to hang out to the side a little. EVERY time someone opened the door (including to get to the bathroom) it would smack into my knee waking me up. This happened about every 20 minutes. Words can’t do this part of our trip justice.
