Travel - Share some pics and stories

I can relate to that @QueenMia I love small and peaceful places and somehow I always end up in huge cities 😊

I love those pictures @QueenMia Was that one fancy looking structure a boathouse?  Unfortunately I don't have any new pictures to share.  Maybe I can find an old one or two  from a few years ago.  I haven't gone anywhere recently.  We'll see.

Yes, @bearwithme, it is a kind of fancy fishermen house. They were a few around the lake. Are you going to Peru again any time soon? Old pictures are great too, they're always good memories to look at 😉

QueenMia

Hey @bearwithme, we should join Yeti in Brazil and take a picture with him 😉

It seem like Yeti is the only one who is traveling now 😁

OK - I promised some pictures - here are some photos from the Amazon:
 (that's a Piranha)
 (that's an Anaconda - the kids are doing a semester abroad in Peru)

Wow! Amazing pictures @bearwithme Thanks for sharing your adventures with us 🤗

That anaconda is amazing @bearwithme. Wow. Same with the giant lily pads. And the monkey (?) Looks like a stuffy toy. 😍 Thank you for posting pictures and letting me see these things with you! 🤗

Glad you both enjoyed them @firebombmarkus and @wafercookieflippers. That adorable monkey is a Tamarind monkey and a group of them were hanging around the lodge where we stayed, always looking for a hand out. They are the smallest of the monkey family. 

I have a few more pictures to share later this week or next weekend. 😊🤗

QueenMia

We should definitely add a WOW button on the Community! Thank you for sharing this with us @bearwithme, it looks so peaceful and beautiful (maybe not so peaceful with all these animals that can kill you😜 - Thanks for not sharing spiders pictures! Haha!). How was it? Was it the first time you were there? What did you like the most?

Have a great time! Can't wait for more pictures of your adventures!

Totally awesome idea 😁 @QueenMia

Here are a few more pictures from the Amazon and don't worry @QueenMia - no spiders!  In fact I didn't see any while I was there - plenty of different ants and other bugs including a centipede, but no spiders.

Wow, wow, wow!! Thank you so much for sharing, @bearwithme!! It looks absolutely wonderful! I can't believe you haven't seen any! You must be lucky or they don't like you... Can I join for your next trip?! 😜

And I also wanted to share with you some pictures I took last weekend - It's a place called Montserrat and which is 1 hour drive away from Barcelona. It's gorgeous! 



I hope Peru is treating you well!!
