We got into long boats to take a two hour boat ride to the Caiman Eco Lodge. The river is narrow, dark and teaming with all sorts of sounds and wild life. On the way our guide would stop the boat to show us various wild life. We saw beautiful iridescent butterflies, all sorts of egrets, seven bats clinging to a stick in the water, three different types of monkeys ( I always wanted a monkey BNL) and a sleeping anaconda snake. We made it to the lodge about two, ate and took a nap. The lodge is really bare bones with electricity only from 6-10. The beds all have mosquito meeting over them. It's an Eco lodge, you can not put anything down the toilet but #1 and #2. All toilet paper must go into a waste basket. Before we leave the jungle I think I may have ruined the ecosystem because I keep forgetting the rule. (Leaving my sox there could not have helped either)
