We set off this morning to go for a wander. We were just going to make the most of the weather. Anyway, we started walking. As we were walking down one of the streets, we saw a huge, fat, green lizard 🦎 just lying there. We got quite close to it but then it ran away into a kindergarten.
As we were walking into the jungle we saw a couple of cute, fluffy squirrels 🐿, running up and down the trees. Randomly, I look up at a tree. And there is sitting a Scarlet Macaw. I stare at it for a while and then start taking pictures. It looks absolutely amazing.
We continue on down the street and come to a big tree with heaps of squawking Scarlet Macaws. Now I can see why local people don’t need alarm clocks!! As we are walking down a path we pick up some coconuts and when we find a seat Uncle Ross (also known as Bear Grylls) cuts them open and we drink the juice from inside.
We continue along the track (now in the jungle) and in the river/lagoon we see a couple of little turtles 🐢 and two big caiman!! I was scared that they were going to come up and eat me, so I backed off quickly. We walked along the track occasionally seeing some Scarlet Macaws. We came to the end of the track in some shade and decided to have a snack there. As we were eating, Mum looks up at the tree above us and points to what she thinks and baby sloths. We look a little closer and realise that they are actually baby monkeys 🐒, swinging above our heads!!
We had a swim and then went back to our hostel and chilled it’s soo hot. It’s 26 degrees!! What a day of wildlife!!!!!
