after breakfast by curiara and navigate the Carrao River
to Mayupa. Walk for half an hour through this savannah
surrounded by tepuys while the curiara negotiate the namesake
rapids. Continue navigating upriver to the Happiness Pit
(Pozo de la Felicidad), stop for a brief swim and then
pass by the Aonda area and Orchid Island (Isla Orquidea).
Go through the Aonda Rapids and enter the Churun River,
passing numberless rapids. We will stop briefly to have
lunch and enjoy a refreshing swim. Reach Ratoncito Island
by early afternoon and start walking a natural trail through
the jungle that will take you to the Laime Lookout, affording
a spectacular panorama of the world's highest waterfall
and the mysterious Auyantepuy. Back on the trail we continue
up to the falls' pool, where you will have the chance
to swim in the cold and pure waters if the water level
permits. Following a well deserved rest, we walk back
to river edge and cross the river by curiara to our shelter.
