Following the river downstream in the early morning back towards Puerto Maldonado.

Passing the occasional entrance to the villages hidden in the jungle.

Returning to the little landing from where we travel by van through along the muddy road back into Puerto Maldonado.

Entering the airport ready to fly across to Lima.

The plane stops off in Cusco to pick up more passengers. When the plane doors open all the air escapes making it hard to breathe again.

We take off again and land at Lima Airport next to the Pacific Ocean. From the airport we travel along the coast road southwards towards the suburb of Miraflores.

After settling in at Miraflores, we head out to the lookout at the top of the cliff to watch the sunset. We are near the main fault line running just off the coast of the entire South American continent, where the Nazca plate rides underneath the South American Plate, lifting it creating the spectacular Andes. The loose cliffs make this a precarious place to be if there was a big earthquake.

View of the sinking sun over the Pacific Ocean with the distant Isla San Lorenzo just visible. A small lighthouse sits on the top of the nearby hill.

Watching the sun set over the Pacific Ocean lookin through a hole in the sculpture. It would be early morning back home in Australia on the other side of the ocean.

The lights of the city come out as the sky quickly darkens on this cool evening.
