Leaving Delfin II at 06:00 for our morning skiff ride, we explored the Marayali River, a river that bisects the Pacaya-Samiria National Park. Coppery titi monkeys and a plethora of birdlife rewarded our efforts.
After a scrumptious breakfast, we visited the village of Amazonas to see how local people live and flourish along the mighty Amazon River. In this community of people, there is a very strong presence from Minga Peru, an NGO that empowers women to create artisan crafts as well as manage fish farms to raise fish for sale.
Our day was topped off with a cruise along Piranha Creek which emptied into the Ucayali River. Going downstream we met up at the junction with the Marañon River, the very beginning of the mighty Amazon River! We stopped and raised a glass to this amazing river!
