The Ecuadorean Amazon

A 4-day/3-night tour to Sacha Lodge, deep in the Ecuadorean Amazon rain forest. From Quito, it was a 30-minute flight to Coca, and from there 1.5-2 hours in a motorized canoe down the Napo river (where the Napo meets the Marañón is where the Amazon begins), followed by a 1.5 km walk, and finally a canoe ride across a small lake.
