Random Amazon...

Here are a few random things from the Amazon...enjoy!




When we got to the Amazon we discovered that this time of year is not necessarily ideal to visit because of the extreme flooding... Check out this poor flooded house!!  Here is just an assortment of random pictures of our time in the Amazon… enjoy!




Even the soccer field was flooded, so the kids instead would climb up the side and jump off into the water!


Even residents of the Amazon need DirecTV!



Beautiful sunset... not a bad commute home for a local fisherman.


Oh yea, this is amazing.  This guy in the yellow is selling some meat on the street…but he gets tired so he stopped on the corner to get his shoes shined and have a beer.  Why not?!


Every night at 5pm hundreds of parrots come to this park to tuck in for the night... kinda creepy and cool at the same time.  It’s a good thing we haven’t seen the movie "The Birds" in quite a while!


This is our little monkey friend who liked to sleep on the mosquito net above our room.  He liked to drink milk out of a spoon, he would nap in a hammock, and he hated bananas.  What kind of monkey is this!?


Our “boat taxi” along the amazon.  I am not quite sure why they decided to have us wear life vests…
