Well at the end of the 2 and half months helping those precious children, we got to go to the amazon for four days. It was AMAZING! And so BEAUtIFUL!! We got to do so many things, like take a walk through the jungle, float down the amazon river, jump off rope swings, eat a bug, look for bugs in the night, lay on a hammock, pan for gold, eat delicious food, watch the most amazing sunset, go bird watching, have a mud fight, talk with the parrot Yolanda, see the jungle "store" or a market, ride in a sweet bus, jump in a pool in the jungle with our clothes on, get eatin alive by fleas, see a medicine doctor. And so many other things. It was an experience to remember. I loved everything about it!!!

A flower that grows down there. When you take out the center, looks like a bird

Panning for Gold... we found a lot!
Our mud fight right before we floated down the Amazon... And our TOUR GUIDE!

The medicine man.. "getting old energy out and putting new energy in"
The blow dart we blew... it was huge!
Yolanda the lodges parrot... she was such a sassy little bird!
Mogly making a basket out of leaves... thats what we nicknamed him.
One of our dinners... our plate was a leaf!
What we did every night... relaxed on the balcony watching the sunset and chatting! What a fun trip!!!
Still so jealous you got to go!! :)
