Peru - Iquitos 2005
Iquitos, the largest city in the world that is not connected to another by road. Far from anywhere, deep in the Amazon jungle. And I had to go there and pick up a helicopter! It was seriously hot and humid, and the 'moto-taxis' are the most common form of transport. Here we are enroute from the airport.
The 'plaza de armas' (main square) of the city of Iquitos.
The amazon river.
We found the helicopter! Now just to get it ready, and sort through a few other obstacles of the beaurocratic kind.
The flight was long, and generally featureless. There was a lot of jungle, a lot of green, and the comfort of the river nearby.
