strange experience.




Amazon, a strange experience. 

Hello, today I will write about a strange experience, this is my second post.
In 2012 I traveled to Peru. In this country I visit the jungle and discovered the Amazonians culture. My trip was very strange, because I lived for three days in a boat on the Amazonas River, in the boat I slept in hammocks, with many Peruvians and foreigners. I think that the stranger for me was that for the morning the boat stop in different Amazonians tribes, where they were selling monkeys, macaws, worms, and many strange fruits (I ate lots of fruit, and I played one time with the monkeys).
After three days I reached to Iquitos, the first great gateway town to Amazon. In Iquitos known to many animals: manatees, pink dolphins, spider monkeys, turtles. Also, I went to Belen market.

The” Belen market” is a typical Amazonian market, sell worms, animals and herbs, but the most interesting is that you can navigate the river Nanai, where there are many floating houses in these houseboats also there is a disco. I went to the disco, was fun to dance in a “houseboat”. I also was in a floating house, it was very strange.
In my last days in Iquitos I went to Quistococha, a zoo in the jungle, there got to swim with dolphins, also I bathe in a brown color lake, there take a lot of photos, and it was my favorite place.

Finally take an airplane, and I saw the Amazon from above.
Bye!
