Today we went up the Yanallpa river by small boat
We saw macaws, toucans and monkeys
At about midday returning home we had heavy rain! The rain was so heavy we were wet though to the skin with waterproof ponchos..
It isn't called a rainforest without heavy rain. Even though we had waterproof ponchos we got soaked heading into the driving rainstorm.
Later, in the afternoon/evening we entered Dorado Warmi ( el Dorado). This was a fascinating time. We saw three toed sloth At sunset the birds and noises of the jungle was so apparent.
A nice touch was the champagne and nibblies served at sunset with all 4 small Pandaus tied abreast.
Then off to see find the Caymans.

We travelled upriver 400Km (800Km round trip) and returned downriver to Iquitos overnight( the current runs at about 8 knots)
At about midday returning home we had heavy rain! The rain was so heavy we were wet though to the skin with waterproof ponchos..
