Posada Amazonas

I´ve made it to deepest darkest. It´s so dark that the camera flash always goes off, and yes, I´ve checked the default settings. Both yesterday and today were spent primarily exploring the jungle. My first adventure was taking a walk through the jungle, knowing full well that there are poisonous snakes, deadly insects and jaguars roaming around the place. I had to see the ¨tower¨. a 140 foot high viewing platform above the canopy. I had to like it as I saw my first ever scarlet macaws and capuchin (sp) monkeys pulling fruit from the tree tops below me. I also saw a dead ¨bush master¨in a garbage pail that had been killed with a machete below the dorm where I am sleeping a couple of weeks ago. It´s all good though, and I hope to be able to post some photos soon, maybe even before my permit to go up the river further comes through...
