On the third jungle day, we were so thankful that we headed to the second lodge in the morning instead of the afternoon. This lodge--named Shangrila,
with free potable water, toilet seats, hot showers, and plenty of manners--was perched atop a two hundred foot cliff, which looked over the Napo river as it winded it's way through the Amazon.
Just sitting and enjoying the spectacular view from this place was a highlight of the tour--although getting that long hot shower, after walking through the very hot very wet jungle for two and half days in the same clothes, wasn't all that horrible either.
