With a 5:30AM wakeup call the river was still shrouded in mist as we headed up stream half asleep. The water level much higher after last nights rain. I had slept pretty well but Shelley, who is not too keen on the bugs hardly slept a wink. After seeing a few monkeys and some hornbills, we set off after brekafast for a 3 hour return hike to an oxbow lake.
With all the rain the path was more like a river in some places, it was tricky not to let any water in through the top of our wellies. The afternoon cruise was pretty quiet, perhaps due to it being much sunnier today, we were certinaly very lucky yesterday to see what we did.
Another night hike followed dinner, this time our guide decided to bring a scorpion back to the lodge.
