kaiteur falls across miles of rainforest

---

Just an amazing day. Up there with some of the best we have had in our travels, and we have had a few amazing days. The plane took off from ogle airport and within 10 min we were flying over pristine rain forest. The flight to kaiteur was about an hour and fifteen mins. A little bumpy at times in clouds but some great views. When we reached the falls the pilot circled the falls and put the plane on its side so we all got a great view. As you can see in the picks we got some great views. We saw loads of birds and saw the golden kaiteur frog, he lives in a bromilliad plant. After the walk it was back to the airstrip and some lunch, then back on the plane for the second falls, here the runway was a lot shorter and just gravel, great landing though almost ran out of runway.
There were some local as Indian children here, they asked one of the ladies on our trip if we came in the big bird. They don't get too many visitors I guess.
