After days of hiking through the lush Amazon jungle where there was life lurking in every corner, we were surprised to discover a piece of land along the Amazon bank that was so dry and deserted that the ground cracked and peeled. We found many dried fish with its shape still intact there. Aside from the vultures and the one fisherman family that set up a temporary camp on the shore, there was absolutely no life to be seen. It was an eerie landscape.
