Amazon 2nd and 3rd day

Off to a hearty breakfast after a good nights sleep and ready to get into the Amazonian spirit and try fishing for those nasty little creatures who are known for their razor teeth and vicious appetite.It turned out to be fun as I proudly caught 2 of the little buggers!It was getting very very hot just sitting in that little open boat we continued on and enjoyed the tranquillity of this stunning environment.We were so very lucky to spot the famous pink dolphins but was difficult to get a decent photo as they are shy creatures but we did see them. We travelled further up the river where we were taken to the remote village of the Yaguana Indians.We learned about their culture and traditions as our guide shares the history of these peaceful people.We were invited to join in a dance which was fun and afterwards we were taken outside where some of our group tried poison dart blowing..We also got to hold a baby sloth who clung on so gently it was like holding a human baby.These were really lovely gentle people and so happy we had this experience. Back to the lodge after a full day of new experience and a delicious dinner to top it all off..Relaxed with friends later and had the barman make us a yummy lemon squash.. Next day we are off to explore the village of Indiana but first we travel to Timicuro and then board a motorcar(read tuk tuk) to Mazan village on the banks of the Napo River..We wandered through the village markets and were horrified by all the butchered animals etc..But this is their food and everything is eaten.Nothing goes to waste..This village looked very poor and very dirty with rubbish everywhere. Back into our motorbikes and enjoyed a drive through the tropical jungle and passed a thatched cottage every now and then.Refreshing after the stifling village of Mazan. Back to our boat for the trip back to the lodge and those stairs..again...After a full and exciting day,it was so nice to cool down with a shower and get ready for our evening dinner.
