After a fleeting visit and two extremes of Cambodia we were looking forward to a month in the famous lands of Vietnam. Cautiously optimistic about the country our first stop was the capital, Ho Chi Minh, where we would be spending a hopefully merry Christmas and an excursion to the Mekong Delta. We immediately loved the place, but like all countries it still had its moments. Did we find Christmas dinner? Just how big is a Mekong Catfish? Why on earth would we be ecstatic that Vietnam is an ex-French colony?

South America is famous for many things, one of which is the largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon. It touches many countries, and after a change of plans near the start of our trip we’d patiently waited until one of the last countries we were to visit to venture into something that really classed as “Jungle”. Which is odd, because technically it was Pampas we were exploring which is entirely different. Anyway, our departure point was Rurrenabaque, North Bolivia, and our destination was Rio Yacuma, a hotbed of wildlife that we were to leisurely observe for the next few days, and it truly was an excellent trip. Would we find any Anaconda? Did we really see Pink Dolphins? And who won the UK versus Taiwan Piranha fishing contest?
