Other pictures from the Amazon

We did go piranha fishing but alas, as with other fishing, you never know whether you catch anything. We didn’t….

The birds though congregated around us
Sunrise from the Anaconda Lodge.
Sunset from one canoe trip.
The fish the cook made for me when there was meat on the menu. That was actually very nice, as the rest of the meals were rice, pasta, beans, and watermelon.
Fresh grilled fish and meat. The fish they cook is Tambaqui, a local fish.

On the last day we saw another small village that had a nice stream to relax in.

This mama just had a large number of puppies.
No water near here but soon near the end of the rainy season they will need it to get around.

And in the pool at the resort, a different frog was there the last morning

And of course, this praying mantis loved to be held. I have held him most days. And he loved my phone. When I picked him up, his head turned wherever the phone was. Maybe he is an Instagram influencer? And with that, my time in the Amazon is almost done

Now to have a tour of the meeting of the waters in Manaus where two rivers of different densities meet.
