We continued to
the Amazon - the largest jungle (if you could say so) of the
world. We stayed close to the Rio Negro (Black River) which
joined with the Amazonas River a bit further to the east. We
stayed at the Ariaś Jungle Tower Hotel, a very special hotel
that have to be experienced. From the top we had a great outlook
over the area, and when we were travelling, we used, of course,
long boats. Here are some images from the stay.

The royal
crown prince Frederik of Denmark visited the Jungle Tower at the
same time as us, and he wrote in the guestbook:
"I did
not know it was that nice to sleep in a tree"
