How Many Calories Are In Lip Balm

Amazon - Part 2

So, and on we go.

On the third day we have for breakfast on a small trek through the jungle issued. Ceciliano showed us all sorts of trees un d herbs explained, and over to build crowns and bracelets. :-) I think overall we have run 3 hours through the forest and my (usually really good) orientation was lost very quickly. We are also no roads or run so long, but just across the fields and when we did come in the way, then Cecliano made the mega with his knife just small. On the way back, he then guided by the sun and brought us safely to lunch. Afternoon we were just several hours by boat on the water and animals have observed and listened to howler monkeys. We have mainly seen any Birds and toucans as well as several monkey families and dolphins in the sunset ... very romantic. :-)

For lunch we were back "home" and around 9 we went to a party right Amazonas. That was almost a small culture shock. Throughout the day our family went there oldest rum in the clothes and then came at once to send evening dresses and high heels from the wooden hut. Since then we felt a bit stupid in front of our shorts, and probably be embroidered T-shirts. :-) The party was 15 Birthday of a girl and it was certainly more than 100 people there, even if I still do not know where came from all. The 15th Birthday girl will probably always here celebrated as great, why I could not really answer, but my guess is that they come after the marriage market, has been confirmed, more or less by our driver in Manaus. We were of course the aliens again at the party, but it has still been really fun and it was sooo delicious cake. :-)

The next day we went to make rubber and have first met other tourists. After we exchanged short, our paths have also separated again and we went to the village. The "village" consists of a school, a doctor, a church and two corner shops, but in which the most were flat screens - Brazil, land of contrasts. Our guide was then just select the school briefly in the new President and we have used the time to look into the classrooms. Incidentally, it was just holiday, because in the area just after the greatest dry period has lasted for 130 years.

On the day we had a long lunch break and are broken only at about half past 4 to the next adventure. The last night we spent namely in the jungle in a hammock. We are certainly two hours went by boat until we were finally here, and were then surprised that there even been a small camp - with "table, Benches and fire -. Built was for dinner there was delicious chicken grilled with bring your own rice and salad and tea which we made with the bark of any tree, very tasty Then however, it was dark and only at 7 and. we had no idea what we should do. So we have been listening for a while of silence and Ceciliano has shown us with the flashlight so disgusting animals that looked like oversized rats. When I've seen, I was kind of tired of me lay in the hammock ... We have then played some cards and slept at 9. This was really terrible, that you really can not see anything at night. I woke up several times and I find myself staring into the darkness and just hoped that all the animals that live there, sleep well. :-)

The next day was Vanis birthday, we started with a delicious breakfast jungle. Then we went to a pineapple plantation and have eaten fresh mangoes from the trees. For lunch there was a delicious birthday cake, the Vani and I have eaten half of it ... we were not supposed to take, unfortunately. And then it was, unfortunately, again say goodbye and make the long return trip to Manaus - one hour boat, an hour's VW bus and then boat. On the last boat we met two Englishmen, who we met at the beginning, and with the two we have then spent the rest of the day. Our return flight was in the morning to 1 and the other by 2 So we were still in Manaus in the best most exclusive restaurant, which we were well aware of until we were sitting there. I've put my backpack on a chair next to me and then came the waiter and have him covered with a tablecloth ... And when we ordered caipirinha, a cocktail car was directly hit and everything was cooked in front of us. :-)

these 4 days sealed off from everything, really had a great experience. Nature is wonderful and it is amazing how little material things but you can actually get along. We in Germany are really fortunate that we are having such a good life. Which should be just aware now and then ... :-)
