Another 5 am rise, but at least the howlers were nice enough to put off their howling until 5:05 am. We headed to Dawson’s creek in canoes, the scene of our crocodile experience. Nothing dramatic to report with respect to wildlife but a pleasant outing.
“Back at the ranch” we packed up and just before taking off we had another howler close encounter, a howler charging Gerard trying to take pictures and best of all, we watched the little baby hitch a ride down our path in front of our cabin.
The travels to Caves Branch was relatively smooth. We unpacked and headed to Blue Hole, about a 15 minute walk from our lodge, for a cool dip in a jungle pond.
