on weds we got a boat from manaus to belem, along the amazon river... it took 5 days and 4 nights! We did get hammock space as it was cheaper but when we got there.. oh my god!

what a week... and unfortunately mostly not nice :( last thursday jaya and suhi started on their rabies injections (of which we need 3... and have to pay for!) when suhi was going to work she felt so unwell that she had to go back home and her parents had to take her straight to A&E... because she had an allergic reaction to the injection.
