First thing to greet us on arrival to Tanimboca nature reserve....red kneed tarantula

Tanimboca showed us a rather less cute tarantula, a tail-less whip scorpion, a tree frog and a poison dart frog (rather more cute)

Marasha Natural Reserve, Peru. The water was like a mirror. Next photo is the arty one in the pouring Amazonas rain. Looking for Caiman, me holding a 1yr old black caiman 🥰

Size isn't everything. I bought some emerald gifts in colombia for the ladies. I will forever love these jewels. I love you Colombia!

Twitter docs. Is it "Viral gastroenteritis" when you've not eaten for 2 days, just been on holiday for a month in colombia and your temp has been 40c? Went for food Friday night, friend has been "ok" and ate the same as me. Food was HOT like hot...have felt horrid for 48hrs now
