Today we woke up early and had a 1 1/2 hour canoe ride back to the welcoming station. Then we were put on a motorboat and had a 2 1/2 hour ride back to the dock in Coca. We waited at the dock for a while, for our ride, then we made our way to the airport. We flew into Quito this afternoon and were picked up by our ride and got to our hotel in Quito. Later this afternoon, we went to a cafe and had a snack, then went to a park and walked around for a bit. It was a lazy afternoon. Not much to report today. It was mostly a traveling day. I didn't even take one photo today. Now, I'm back in the room, publishing all the blog posts I couldn't do while in the Amazon. Later this evening we will go to dinner and then come back and Adam and I may play some cribbage. This is a super boring blog post. Super boring. But not a lot happened today, so I guess there are days like that. Now, I'm going to take a nap before dinner. To make this a little more interesting I'm adding a video of our guides paddling us in the Amazon. Exciting.
Tomorrow we will head to the Andes for two nights, then on Sunday back to Quito. I will fly out late Sunday night and get back into Madison around 11:30 Monday morning. I'll hopefully have a more exciting day tomorrow and be able to blog from our first stop.
Have a good one!
