Last morning on the pampas. No storm during the night so we all slept well. Or maybe it was because of us spending all our energy fighting the mud yesterday. Or alcohol. Who knows. The alligators were still fighting each other on the river bank this morning. Still fun to look at.
Mikkel and the guide spotted a couple of dolphins swimming past the lodge upstream. Good indication on where to head after the breakfast. So we went - upstream and found the dolphins swimming back and forth the same stretch of river where we caught piranhas yesterday afternoon.
No alligators in sight on the banks Roger, the Australian - jumped into the brown water only to discover that the river was around 1,50 meter deep. Jes followed shortly after and the rest of us watched from the boat. Quite funny to see them jump a bit every time a fish "explored" their feet. The Swiss guy was the last to jump in. Then we could see the dolphins swimming back and forth not really getting close to the three guys in the water.
Apparently something else decided to come close to Rogers feet because we've never expected to see a 130 kg guy jump out the water and into the boat. No toes missing Jes and the Swiss guy decided to follow Rogers example and get out of the water.
Then we headed back to the lodge, had lunch, packed up and headed downstream. Our trusty Land Cruiser was waiting for us and the three hour drive back to Rurrenabaque. We had booked the same hostel as last time, so we knew the pool was waiting for us. Possibly with a cold beer. What a relief.
In the evening we met up with the Swiss guys from our trip and went for dinner. Fish curry cooked in banana leaf. Delicious.
Tomorrow we are heading back to La Paz with Crash-air. Fingers stay crossed all night.
