Going back to the original camp was relatively faster than reaching it, but thank god we went pronto because we were all starving! We had some amazing pancakes with manioc a, delicia😊 after that we had to fish for baits because we were going fishing! The guides went to look for some kind of nut that produces the fireflyI thaT in the process is a worm, we wanted the worm. We got a few and we started fishing and then moyseuc offered us a worm, we thought he was joking do Joanna asked him to have half of it. Probably grossed out to eat them raw he grilled them in the fire and he gave us our share.... I was kind of curious but grossed out and did not want to put that thing in my mouth- Joanna ate hers and u was stillreluctant to get mine, I got it and threw it into my mouth and swallowed it like a pill, it did not taste real bad but still it's a worm. GROSS

We were not do lucky with the fish baits- we only had 2, but we still went fishing. We went with M and the other duo with Samuel and the gun- did I mention that we had a gun for thepredatory animals but only just in case we needed tprotect ourselves . We started off with the nets and then we were going to meet the others. Time passed and we got no fish with the rods, checked the nets, still nada do we headthe to meet the others, on the ride there was an eagle which we could have killed if we had the gun, but it wasn't with us and we were cursing our bad luck. It was about 4 ish and we were joking with M that we would have frogs again , and he was like no. Luckily for us he also brought some fresh fruit in the supplies and we had banana and the BEST pineapple EVER!! The others also did not appear to do better than us , so it was back to camp, then M was going back to the nets and all 3girls went with him, we left Luca to watch the camp and S went to check for some other food source with the gun! Yay for us we got 2 medium sized fish, do we weren't going to starve. We were relaxing on the hammocks and we got some sleep, the guides left forMoore food search and we were woken up for dinner to find that they had gotten a cayman!! Wow- it was yummy accompanied with some spicy onion soup Nd off purse farrofa. The plan after dinner was to sleep until 3 in the morning because S and M were tired after being up and doing all the work, and then go for animal watching. We saw an owl, felt an electric eel and all 3 of us(girls) got our hair caught by a nasty plant some of us for the second time😊.

We had an amazing boat ride watching the night changing into daythere's no sunrise this season.We packed and loaded up the boats to go to the lodge for a longed shower. Aniko and me wanted to pedal with the small boats something that was needed at least from

One of the small boats because it would have been too difficult to navigate out of the jungle. In the beginning my only direction was Tree and because I did not know the way out of there I had to wait for the others, I even had a small tree trunk fall on me
