Took the new ferry from Iquitos to Pebas on Tuesday morning. We got off the fancy boat at a landing near town and transferred our bags to Don Ricardo's peque peque (dugout canoe with 5 HP engine. Check out a few pics from Pebas including a butterfly, carachama fish in a tub (they can breathe both through gills and by gulping air which allows them to breathe air for awhile), and a general store that truly seemed to have a bit of everything including a lone watermelon in the nail section).
