last one - more Bolivia jungle pics

beautiful sunset as we arrived in the small community, cachichira
Seppe and our friend Joseph, who cooked us fish and eventually brought us back to Rurrenabaque. in return, we helped he and his wife harvest their rice and fix his motorboat. i now have many new skills.
and a lot of knowledge about machetes! yes, that is me.
and thats seppe with the turtle that was caught by joseph's net. we picked it up before heading back upriver to rurrenabaque, but they were going to eat it when they returned home. i was in charge of keeping it from flipping over and escaping...kind of hard when it is so strong with such big teeth!

this is the spot we stopped at to camp en route back to rurre. our mosquito net is the first one you see...theirs is the second. all you needed was 4 sticks to put it up. quite a handy contraption!
