We were supposed to get up super early to bird watch in the Amazon. Unfortunately due to the rain the bird watch was cancelled. We all hung around the boat playing cards, reading, sketching, etc until the afternoon when we all got into canoes and took a tour of the river. It was a very nice ride. We were able to see various plants and a number of birds which made up for the missed bird watching experience earlier that morning. We also were able to see river dolphins swimming in the river. Some of us always missed siting them and so we had to continuously keep silent because they tended to stay away. Very cool when we finally caught site of them. We were able to see other little communities along the river as well as people traveling from one place to another on the water. We saw the people who live along the river in their natural state and we had a great time together.
