Sunday was another day to relax. We decided to head back to the Bora Tribe to say hi and hang out with the kids. Every one had a great time. We also stopped at the Cultural Center again. Some of the group went to another Monkey Island others of us went fishing. Fishing wasn’t too successful. Only three little catfish, we threw them back.
Update on the island we are on. Another downpour today. The Amazon has risen another 6 plus inches. Now too close to our outhouses. The villagers moved two of the four, dug new holes and we are good to go for a few more days. The wooded bridge they built for us is now partial submerged. The final third of it is almost 18 inches underwater and actually hard to see to know where you are walking. We are anticipating (and hoping) that the villagers do something. Not sure what.
We do had a backup plan to move back the People of Peru headquarters if necessary. Since they just rebuilt our latrines we don’t want to leave just yet. We have three more days though and the river continues to rise 4-8 inches every day. I am sure we will have to take our luggage out by boat.
