Day 2 – 06/02/2020

Last night I did not get much sleep as the howler monkey was howling!

Today I woke up to the chirping and screeching of all the birds and animals of the rainforest, the forest was alive! It was very hot today, it felt like 100 degrees!

After breakfast, we went on a walk with Pedro and he showed us many plants that are used to make medicines, they were very vibrant! We spent the day exploring the forest floor and we saw lots of wildlife like snakes, geckos and toads – it was very exciting, though Pedro explained we had to be careful as some of them are very dangerous and could harm us.

We came back to the lodge for the evening and had some traditional Amazonian food of fish and cassava (like potatoes).
