Hi everyone
So we´re back on our travels, appreciating the 30 degree rise in temperature over the last two days, if not the 26 hour journey, which included 4 hours with stranded Brummies in Bridgetown airport, two changes of plane and abbreviated nights camping out at the Westminster flat beforehand and at the airport hotel in Port of Spain on Saturday night.
On a softies´adventure tour for the first ten days (we briefly met up with some misguided souls, who were paying to do a jungle survival course, involving 3 days fending for themselves, a sort of iron John meets I´m a (non) celebrity). We´ve already done two journeys in 10 seater planes over the rainforest canopy: on Sunday, the day we arrived to Kaietur falls and Monday to a lodge on the savanna in North Rupununi (with apparently, the only swimming pool in the region). Reminiscent of Sri Lanka in many ways including troops of schoolchildren in immaculate uniforms and bare feet, and lush jungle landcape. The guides have all trained at Iwokrama, the centre Penny will be working for, and we are off to see the place itself, or the canopy walkway part on Tuesday.
