Among giant rats, caimans and piranhas - Part 1

Three unforgettable days on the river in SOUTH AMERICA Leon Dolphin, entrepreneur, I think, ever since I was five years old read a story about Mowgli, I secretly hoped that I could get into this book and become the protagonist of my favorite tales of at least one day. Now that I've become quite large, I had the opportunity to visit South America. And, despite the fact that around me were the pampas, and not the jungle village Rurenabak was a real embodiment of my dreams. We spent three unforgettable days in animals, about which I had never heard and whom I had never seen before. Turtle in La Paz we arrived overnight bus from the town of Sucre. It turned out that on the day tickets on all flights to Rurenabak were sold out. Ticket seller told us that we can wait half an hour, and that perhaps some vacant seats, if any of the passengers will not come in to land. We waited about half an hour, and she told us the good news - two passengers and have not appeared. We went through all the necessary formalities with the passports, and then she smiled at us, the seller and said that those two passengers who have not appeared, we were ourselves! The fact is that when we ordered tickets to the travel agency in Sucre, I warned the manager that maybe I just podedu to the airport and try to buy tickets on the spot, because if there is rain, we'll go somewhere another place. The manager said: "Well, if you do not pay tomorrow, I'll cancel the order." I did not pay, but fortunately, she did not cancel the order and, thus, we got seats on this flight! But I could have lied to the girl at the airport and say that already paid, and she would not even learned about my lie, because her computer has failed. But my honesty prevailed, and we paid 75 dollars for a plane ticket to Rurenabaka. There was also another option - to pay $ 15 and go by bus on a winding road, driving on which, as they say, many travelers get emotional trauma. Read more:
