Amazonas


We boarded a long boat in the small hours of a morn, with a few hostel pals and our tour guide Freddy... And we baso just went about Amazon! 


We went first to see a local tribe that live on the river and were shown how we might traq dart a monkey out of a tree! We ate some fruit that tasted like a peanut bum hole, then were shown the local tribes dance..some people even made to partake in a shuffty, which gave us many amuses! (the dance and the local ladies who's boobs had fallen aside thier grass vests..because we're 10 years old!)


Next we went to a waterside animal sanctuary.. It was more like some people had started to feed animals and they never left.. It was wicked! We had barely pulled up and a monkey had swung in the boat and was trying to get into Jape's bag!


 We got to hold monkeys and parrots, a bastard sized anaconda, then hold a slouth, which was the funniest thing!! It moved like a toy that was running out of batteries, with a constant I've just smoked all of mother natures herbs face on!


Next we went to watch pink dolphins feeding in the river, which 
was real special. They apparently come to the river to feed in calm waters, and it was so calm.. 2 maybe 3 boats of tourists sitting on the huge lake, hardly making a sound.. Then the next thing these pink fins are flying up all around us and everyone was in mass 'woow... Wooooooooooooooow'! Neither of us were quick draw enough to get a picture of one though, so you'll have to take our word, t'was wicked!


Then as it started to get dark we went ALLIGATOR HUNTING!!! (Spotting / hunted, whateves!).  We rode through the river jungle using torches to see, and all told to keep a look out for 2 yellow eyes looking back at you..... Oh righteo then! It was dead fun, until the smallest of something brushed past one of the girls arms and we all started a scream wave!
We didn't manage to actually see one in the end, but I recon our tour was cut a bit short because Freddy started telling us maneater stories, and we all papped it and asked him to take us back! 😳


We slept in a lodge on the river, and both shizled our nizzles! It was pitch black come 10pm, so we just layed listening to jungle beasts flying at the walls trying to get in. The toilet was outside also, meaning a gauntlet of creature hell at pee and poo times


The next day we donned cagoules and wellies, got make shift rods and went fishing for parianahs!
Wee bird with her prize beast, look;


So by the end of day dos we basically looked like the jungle, and smelled like the river, but would go again right now.
Mega fun times!!
