hi again everyone!
we have just returned from a 4day trip to the Amazon, which was utterly amazin! (as can been seen from the photos) the only downside was being eaten alive by mosquitoes.. :( we´ve got over 60 bites between us! but still had a brilliant time, trekking through the jungle, playing with the monkeys and chattin with the parrots!
stayed in a gorgeous lodge on the Madre De Dios river, total luxury yet still considerably cheap - food, accomodation and guides all excellent! even had 2 hammocks in our cabin, we arrived on the first day and decided then we didnt ever want to leave (that was prior to the aforementioned mosi bites which after 3 days changed our opinions a little! :)
weather was gorgeous and really hot but it was wet season in the jungle and so it rained a little/a lot mostly every day, but even in the hot weather the logde had a pool that we could chill out in.
we´re back in Cusco now where we began our Machu Picchu tour and we´re takin an early bus ride in the morning to Puno, the home of Lake Titicaca where we have a trip booked to visit the floating Islands on the lakes and hopefully stay with some of the local natives - will look forward to updating you all on our antics in a few days or so!
love to all,
Ciara and Matt xx
