I just returned from a trip to the Amazon and was reminded again of all that makes me love it (as well as all that makes me hate it)! Do you have any of those love/hate relationships. We have travelled many a river mile in the Amazon basin and have probably seen things few other people have been privileged to see.
What I love are the 12 hour days, where no clock is needed. One can tell by the sun almost exactly what time it is all year round. I love the warm weather - no jumping out of a warm bed into a cold room; at least almost never. I love the abundance of fresh fruits, vegetables, fish and meat and squawking live chickens in open air pavilions. Bananas, pineapples, mangoes, papayas in great heaps; unequaled in flavor anywhere in the world. Makes my mouth water just to think about it.
While we were there this time we were served baked fish and grilled fish - unfortunately not peacock bass. But I had forgotten how delicious fish can really be when it comes fresh from the water and to the table all on the same day!
Hope you have a chance to experience these wonders of the Amazon some day!
P.S. I'll save what I hate for another post!
