Our week started with some pink dolphins swimming around our skiffs, and some gray dolphins fishing — what a great show! Clavero is a huge lake that has a couple of villages by the shoreline. This place is full of wildlife, such as ospreys, monkeys, multicolored birds, dolphins, and hundreds of species of fish. And our afternoon was as amazing as the morning: we observed many varieties of egrets, sloths, macaws, and the great landscape with humongous trees and emerald green vegetation. We had an astonishing beginning in this paradise!

Piranha Creek and the Amazon River
This morning, our guests had a truly special experience visiting the Amazonas community, a well organized village where many of the community leaders are women. They warmly welcomed us and shared a glimpse into their daily lives, showing us how they cook traditional dishes, use plant-based dyes to create beautiful handicrafts, and most importantly, their incredible efforts in leadership, sustainable fishing, and agroforestry farming. Their work is a powerful response to soil acidification and climate change, demonstrating resilience and innovation in their way of life. In the afternoon, we navigated toward the great confluence, where the Marañón and Ucayali Rivers merge to form the Amazon River. We explored a narrow creek in search of wildlife, and as our three skiffs returned to the Amazon River, we tied them together and raised a glass, celebrating the end of a fantastic expedition.
