Expedition moves down river

After a brief call from the expedition we can report that all is well.

The boats are moving back down river on their way to Iquitos and plan to stop off at the village of San Martine to get a taste of real Amazonian life and play some football with the locals.

Tomorrow they will be heading to Nauta and Iquitos.
The return journey has begun...

  1. Lovely to hear that all is well. We must have looked at all the photos a million times. Thank you Dot they really helped us imagine what everyone was up to and we really envied your adventure. Looking forward to seeing you Rose and hearing all the stories and seeing more photographs. Hope the thought of a hot bath/shower, bed and no mossies will help put a smile on your faces. Love Mum X
