One of the things I like the most about putting together a video of a vacation is that I feel I'm reliving the moments that I treasured all over again.
And when I put together the various clips of our time in Peru, last May, I was able to remember the joy of the rich culture and beauty. Without the sweat and exhaustion.
There were moments I had forgotten about our trip to the Amazon Basin: the caramel-brown of the Tambopata River; the breakfast along the river, after having watched countless birds at a clay lick; the night walk in the jungle, where we saw tarantulas and snakes, and heard the night animals come alive.
This weekend, I put together the second part of our Peruvian adventure, where we shared some time in Lima before our kids flew back to Canada, and DW and I made our way to Puerto Maldonado. If you haven't seen Part 1, where we were in the Cusco area and visited Machu Picchu, check it out first.
And then, when you have more time, watch Part 2.
In reviewing both videos, something went wonky with the exposure settings on my smartphone, which recorded most of the video footage. The colours are off and at times, the scene seems washed out. But at least the memory was captured.
If you haven't done so, already, subscribe to my channel if you liked this video and want to see more adventures. After all, my YouTube channel is the video extension of this blog, and apparently you enjoy coming here.
Happy Monday!
