Our Brazilian adventure started in Amazonas. We spent some days onboard a river boat and travelled upstream on Rio Negro. The accomodation was rather simple and it was a bit hot during the night, so I struggled a bit with the sleep. During the days we did excursions in a smaller boat to come closer to the nature and the wildlife. The rainforest is dense, which means that it is a bit hard to spot wildlife in Amazonas. We saw mostly birds, but they are very colourful. We also met the funny looking pink river dolphins and tried piranha fishing.
