"La selva" has many surprises and challenges for us. We are moving in a completely unknown environment, with billions of moskitoes, tropical heat and a air humidity of more than 85%.
Our camp was situated in the Pacaya-Samiria National Park, 300 km upstream the amazon from Iquitos.
Why don´t we let the pictures do the talking..
The so called tropical handshake.. including about 400 termites, who are an excellent moskito repellent, when mashed up and smeared on the skin.
These are Pepito, Pancho (our guide), Maxí y Marcos in a indigenous amazon village on the last day of our tour.
Among the many animals we saw and touched the most impressive one was the SLOTH, also known as the ghost animal (dt. faultier) considering its frightening claws and screams.
The "anaconda-accident"; while proudly holding an 2m long anaconda, this shameless animal was not friendly enought to spare marcos snake-poo (yellow).
