Meanwhile, Nick arranges to meet Caroline at the Icon bar as he has a surprise for her. He decides not to reveal it, though, as the moment has to be perfect and he's feeling a little bit tipsy.

the world

Bruce Parry takes to public transport for the first time in his journey along the Amazon – and it's an adventure in itself. Slinging his hammock on deck, Bruce and the rest of the travellers are woken by a cocaine raid, and watch a hapless smuggler being dragged off to face at least five years in jail.

 

The tempo of the journey slows as Bruce joins Tapioca, a legend who claims to be able to "hear" fish, as they go into the flooded forests of the Mamiraua reserve to try to find the pirarucu, the largest freshwater fish in the world. Overfishing was a huge problem until the creation of the reserve, which is four times the size of Wales. Now the people are learning how to live a sustainable way of life which could be a model for other areas.

 

Bruce joins another scouting trip when he meets scientists searching for the Caiman, a crocodile-like creature which is critically endangered. Though the scientists are hoping to increase numbers, just further down the river, fishermen are illegally catching caiman, not to eat, but to use as bait for other fish – just another of the many contradictions Bruce is discovering on his epic journey.
