How much more............

Our Holiday is starting to turn into a Monty Python sketch.
On the last day in the jungle we went on a swift city tour of Iquitos including snake farms, Zoos, Bora Bora tribes, tribes I can´t remember the name of tribes, markets, Eiffel's steel house and other miscellaneous attractions around the town.

We needed a room as we has one more night before our flight out of the jungle but, couldn´t get one, as it was high season. The only room available was the presidential suite in the El Dorado on the square in the centre of the town. Which we reluctantly decided would fit our purposes.
After settling into the room, the girls and I decided to try all the free facility's. I was so pleased there were complementary razors. I no longer have legs like "Jane of the Jungle".
The Jacuzzi didn´t seem to like me and began pelting high speed jets of water at me and the bathroom soon began to fill will a large volume of water. Roland 'nowhere to be seen' Jonas was missing in action and it took some time for my screaming on the balcony to attract the attention of the staff.
The lights started to flicker and by the time it was switched off the carpet in the foyer was sodden. Needless to say that room will never be the same again. I didn´t try the sauna this time.
