Day walk in jungle


Day whatever
Again we will need our big ass boots for a hike the the jungle. We traveled by long boat to the shallow, shallow lake. It is shrinking each day we are here. Once we arrive to the jungle walk, our guide brought us deep into the jungle and showed a variety a very cool plants, barks and mushrooms that have medicinal benefits. We saw marching ants that all went marching two by two down into the ground. The amazing part was that they all carried a large chunk of leaf on their backs that must have been 3xs their weight.  On each turn in the path there was something new and different to discover. On one turn, we came across the most poisonous snake in the Amazon just coiled up not bothering anybody. They told us there was a specific protocol if bitten by this snake......None off us wanted to test the protocol
