Buddies George and Joel Dawson are in Peru for 2 Weeks




They sent this -

We have just spent 3 days and nights in lodges 100 miles from the nearest town.  It was cool, nearly 100% humidity, no electricity, but wonderful.  We are now in a lodge on the banks of the Amazon, just 25 miles from Iquitos.  The lodges are all part of a group established 40 years ago for the Ecotourist.  This last night in the Amazon is in the Ceiba Lodge.  Ceiba is the more common name of the Kapok tree.  This lodge is nice but not what Joel and I would prefer as it has air conditioning, heated swimming pool, water slide and wireless internet.   We are able to have laundry done which is good  as all that we have with us for this part of the trip.  All our clothes are soaked with sweat and covered in mud.

It will soon be time for lunch.
