This was my entry into RichboyJhae's Coruscant Speeder Contest.

 

It's my take on how deliveries are made on Coruscant. I loved this build and reimagining Amazon in another galaxy.

2013 TAMU Applied Biodiversity Sciences Amazon Field School on the Tambopata River in the Peruvian Amazon

One of the truly pristine areas of the tropics is located in Peru´s southernmost jungle department of Madre de Dios. At 4.5 million acres, the National Park of Manu is one of the best areas in the Amazon rainforest for watching wildlife. Due to the remoteness of the area, you will see an abundance of monkeys (13 different species), turtles, giant otters, peccaries, capybaras, tapirs, jaguars and macaws. Manu is also an unparalleled place for bird watching. It harbors over 1,000 species of birds, 300 more species than are found in the U.S. and Canada alone. New species are continually being discovered.

  

There are yet more chances to see birds in the second largest reserve: the Reserva Nacional Tambopata Candamo. The reserve encompasses the entire watershed of the Rio Tambopata, one of the most beautiful and least-disturbed areas in Peru. The reserve protects the largest macaw lick in South America, the Colpa de Guacamayos. Here birdwatchers can view one of the world´s phenomenal avian spectacles, as hundreds of red, blue and green parrots and macaws gather at the lick daily.

Accommodations in the Amazon aren't that plentiful. Our choice was Ariau Towers. For those familiar with the Survivor TV Show, this was the hotel the film crew stayed in during the taping of Survivor: The Amazon. The hotel looked like it had seen better days, but then again the conditions are rather harsh. It's hard to describe how much the area floods, hence everything being built on stilts. Some of the more famous guests have included Bill Gates, Jimmy Carter, Susan Sarandon, Alanis Morissette, etc... This picture is the interior of one of the towers. Our room was the one on the left.

 

With all that said, probably one of the things I will remember most from this location was our guide. He told us of how they would paddle on the river two hours one-way to the nearest school each day. He was currently in the midst of teaching himself his fifth language. His determination to better himself was inspiring.

 

Enjoy the weekend.

With five of us wedged into a wobbly, four-seater plane, this is a selection of shots from our sweaty one-hour flight from Manaus, in the Brazilian Amazon, to Novo Aripuana -even deeper in the Amazon- and back. Many thanks to Daniel, the pilot, for permitting the use of electronic devices. Aerial view of the Amazon Rainforest, near Manaus, the capital of the Brazilian state of Amazonas.
