Having finished my time at jacj cuisi with a ride into town on the back of a pickup truck (37), litterally sitting on the rubbish - luckily there was a straw mattress in there.
It was time to venture into the Pampas in search of wildlife, 3 hours out of Rurre we boarded our our little wooden motor boats (38) in which we were to spend many hours over the next 3 days.
We had a pretty amazing & lucky time from the toucan flying past, caiman in the camp & spotted at night, and finding an anaconda just after we'd given up trekking through swampland for 2 hours.
We spent an afternoon fishing for piranhas, although I can't claim to have contributed to our evening meal.
The most amazing thing though had to be the playful pink dolphins who swam around us & played with each other, the guide was so happy he wanted copies of some photos for his sister.
We also had plenty of mosquitos to keep us company, particularly at sunrise & sunset, but worth braving them to get some photos.
