Peruvian beer at 6.30 pm after I got rid of this 5 days of tormenting constipation. yes I said it! We`re sitting in the boat and listening "one way ticket" from Luis`music player. He dreams about living in Europe.

This was the first day of work.
Enjoyed.
Felt really useless and frustrated sometimes, but at least it was only me, not the patients.

There was crazy lot of ill children and we were about to get craxy with the endless amount of families bursting into the school we were having the clinic at. I got to give a lecture for the young guys, whom tooth were being pulled out by our dentist (who was having his "office" at the sunny terrace of the school). Muy joven!

Now we`re just hanging out and waiting the dinner so we can do a bit of a night excursion on the River.

I like peruvian mint beer. Strange.
Well they don`t have ciders. I suggested importing them to Luis, who hates beer as much as I do.

Luis likes Justin Bieber. Fun.

We had UNBELIEVABLE time yesterday at the river at night.
Milkyway.
Thousands of sounds.
Bats, frogs, huge moths and few birds.
We were embraced by the environment.
We drove the little boat up the river Napo quite a while and drifted back.
Then we were driven in the middle of Amazon,.
Saw a huge, naranja moon rising behind the palm trees.
Sunsets and -rises, and moon sets and rises happen here in minutes, almost in seconds, so we were lucky.
And the warm breeze.

When we drove back to the boat, the girls noticed something on Naomis back.
It was huge spider. They almost jumped from the speedboat! It was probably in the boat in the first place, though Luis says it probably dropped from the trees when we pulled to the riverside to see a frog. Huge, poisonous spider. You could imagine none of us fell asleep too easily.
