Today we where suppose to continue on to Ogle Airport where we where supposed to take a small aircraft to Kaieteur Falls (one hour flight). Kaietur is world’s highest single drop water falls measuring 226 m. We would have spent about 1.5 hours at the falls before we fly back to Georgetown. But high wind forecasts precipitated the cancelation of the trip. It would have been one of the highlights of Guyana.

Guyana Food
In general, Guyana Food was decent. I mostly obtained food from street stalls, either om a food stand in front of a private home or from a local BBQ establishment with a massive queue. But there was one first for me, never have I ever experience a tour group eating at a local mall's food court. Our tour leader suggested it and our group (mostly old europeans) jumped on it!
