I'm back. It's quite an odd feeling actually, being back in Peru, four years on. I'd forgotten how much I love the madness. It's nice to be able to introduce the place to Justin too, and he seems to be enjoying it so far and doing his best to embrace the craziness. We stopped off in Santiago, Chile, on the way, which was nice, but was all European charm and not nearly enough random Peruvian flavour for my liking.
We've just arrived in Iquitos - the largest city in the world inaccessible by road, and a port on the Amazon River. It's raining. It seems tropical downpours are going to be a daily occurrence while we're here, and while we're in the jungle...camping. Apparently there is no "rainy season" in Iquitos though. I think perhaps the term "rainy season" implies some kind of predictability that Iquitos doesn't buy into.
We head out on our 12-day jungle expedition the day after tomorrow. Hopefully we should have some good photos to share on our return.
