Day 27 - Lima - Iquitos - Amazon River
Lima, IquitosTuesday, 17 September 2013
Today we travelled from Lima to Iquitos on the Amazon River. We are staying here for 3 nights as we explore the Amazon. We are along the river in the jungle. It was a 90 minute boat ride from Iquitos to Ceiba Tops Lodge. Paul, our guide took us for a look around after we checked in. The mosquitoes were out in full force as dusk came. Mental note: Repel on the palms of the hands. It is very hot here with overnight temperatures of about 22 and daytime temperatures around 32. The humidity sits around the 80% mark so it's very hot and sweaty!
Thank goodness for the airconditioning, fans and the swimming pool. No pool after 6 as the mosquitoes will pick you up,and carry you off!
