Delfin II

No time for proper descriptions of all the wonderful sights. We're adding pictures faster than we can sort and label them! So here is a collection from our 3 days aboard the Delfin II as she went upstream from Iquitos along the two main tributaries that form the Amazon. Our typical day consisted of two 3 hour excursions in small boats, interspersed with three large meals and a siesta. Only 4000 km to the Atlantic!
