An 8am start today with a trip to Cusco Airport. Aerocondor flight 221 to Puerto Maldonado was a short flight into the heart of the Amazon Rainforest. We took a motorised canoe-like boat to our Lodge, but on the way we were treated to an eco-friendly lunch of rice and vegetables within a huge leaf which we threw into the river after we were finished.
After settling into our "open-plan" rooms, we took a walk into the forest and up a 120 foot tower which took us above the tree canopy. There we observed a couple of brightly coloured Macaws and some Spix birds, but it sooon got dark.
After dinner we had an early night due to the fact that we had a full day ahead of us!
