We'll let the pictures do the talking again today. Just one tip: don't ignore the warnings about the coatis. Outside one of the cafes today, we witnessed a raid by a SWAT team of coatis who emerged from the jungle, leaped onto a table and made off with an English couple's bocadillo de jamon y queso, still in its wrapper. Apparently they can get aggressive if you ask for your sandwich back, and they bite. Being warm blooded mammals, they're capable of carrying rabies. The best advice is to eat in.
By an extraordinary coincidence last night, we found ourselves in the same restaurant as Suzanne, the Scots backpacker whom we met on the bus to Salta. As Steven Wright said: it's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it. Now back to the pictures.

Those persistent little coatis
I remember seeing a gang of the little blighters hanging off the side of a picnic basket as the poor victims tried desperately to leave te picnic area. It wasn't certain who was going to end up keeping the basket. Eventually, the coatis gave up at the edge of the picnic area. Thanks for posting these. It is the most beautiful place and we're so pleased to see it again via your videos. Lots of love, V&M
