Saturday

Off to the Amazon. After a flight, took a motorised canoe upstream for three hours to a wilderness lodge made completely out of wood. Only 2 hrs electricity each day. Kerosene lamps and candles for light. Mosquito nets at night in 4 poster beds. Open windows to the rainforest. Bar and spa. Very romantic.

I was told to be at the office by 10am so arrived at 9.45. At 10.15 nothing happening so I asked what was going on and she said 1pm. I thought she meant at the lodge. I sat for a while then went for a walk. At 12 another tour came along so I asked the guide what was happening he said they were going to the market and I could come. I said why did...

Vi flaug frå Cusco over Andesfjella til Puerto Maldonado i Peru-jungelen. Så vart vi frakta i motoriserte kanoar oppover elva Tambopata, sideelv til Madre de Dios som igjen renn gjennom Bolivia og Brasil og ut i Amazonas. Etter 10.800 km endar vatnet i Atlanterhavet. Vi vart innkvarterte i dei eksotiske jungel-bungalowane til Rainforest Expediti...

Flew from Lima to Puerto Maldonado via Cusco early in the morning. We were picked up in a fancy bus and taken to the boats for 1 1/2 trip down the river to the Jungle. The lodges were timber cabins with an ensuite and bed, some had a hammock. I have been fortunate so far to have a single room all the time, and this time I had a double bed to mys...

The last few days in Peru have been full of contrasts. From the high mountains of Cusco and Machu Picchu we moved on to the Amazon lowlands of the Tambopata River. Then a last blast in Cusco. The conquering of Machu Picchu called for a celebratory dinner and night out. Dinner was good and then Manuel took the hardy few to a nightcub for salsa le...

Ola Amigos, We survived the jungle (located in the Amazon Basin)! We took a 45 minute boat ride down a river (Madre de Dios) that feeds into the Amazon. Then hiked into the jungle for another hour. Then canoed to our lodge in Sandoval lake. We spent about 2 days in the jungle. We saw many animals, including five types of monkeys (a crowd pleaser...

We made it to the riverside city of Puerto Maldonado. It is suddenly hot and humid. This city is nothing like the quaint city of Cuzco. Rather, it's a busy sprawling city with hundreds of thousands of motorcycles and hardly a car to be seen. It is very loud here, with a non-stop buzz of motorcyles cruising around. This is the stop of point for m...

Not for the superstitious, our flight to Puerto Maldonado in the Amazon jungle was on Friday 13th July. We got to the airport early because of all the strikes going on so we were all still half asleep when we arrived at Puerto Maldonado. Its usually pretty good weather in this region (30C) at this time of year and its the dry season. However it ...

After a large delay at the Lima airport (apparently due to weather, although all the other flights to Cuzco seemed to be leaving without trouble), we arrived in Puerto Maldonado, a good five hours later than anticipated, and armed with advice from James´s mother and grandmother about keeping our toes out of the water. Luckily we had great weathe...
