Las pampas, sunrise and cute wildlifes

Tony woke us up at 5 am. In pitch black, we hopped on the boat again. The moon sets on one side while the sun rises on the other. From dark blue, dark purple, vine red to orange red then the glorious sun. We hear the birds chirping, the alligators moving to their hunting spots, the pampas coming to life again. The sky was wide and limitless. The pampas full of life and energy. Fresh breeze and cold air waking us up. We stood on a little hill and gawing at this absolutely beautiful scene with circle of life playing in the background. I'll wake up for this everyday.

wait for it... wait for it....

After breakfast, we spotted a gang of yellow squirrel monkeys hanging around the lodge. They were curious. They took our apple and bananas. You cute little monkey. So, we didn't know this, but you're not suppose to feed the monkeys...

a bunch of cute monkeys hung around the lodge, adorable!!!

Tony took us further down the stream again, spotting for more animals. We spotted a SLOTH. It was Tony's first time seeing it this year thus we were extremely lucky. These cute furry bundles move really realllly realllllly slow. He was hanging on the tree branches eating leaves. They are only active for a few hours in a day and sleep for the rest. They don't have natural predators so they are able to live a lazy chilled out life.

a SLOTH! we spotted a sloth! 

This is a crappy photo, it's almost impossible to get a clear shot of these cute pink dolphins. During dry periods, they hang around a particular deep part of the river. A lot of people jumped in the water to swim with them. They would use their mouths to poke your feet. I never knew there were dolphins in the Amazon. Let alone, Pink dolphins.
