So this is life in the jungle! Maddy is reading a recently published book (by our friend and host Steven Alexander) while lounging in the rede (hammock). Since arriving in Santarém on Thursday, we've taken the time to rest and rejuvenate a bit after the whirlwind summer. Soon we'll be off to Castelo de Sonhos ("Castle of Dreams"), a small community 600 miles south of Santarém where Jeremy is basing his research. The highlights so far: castanha (brazil nut) ice cream; fried pirarucu fish balls; a ceiba tree in the forest; Fox News via satellite; cold showers and even colder beers; a new municipal tree-house in Santarém; a yummy pay-by-the-pound restaurant; and Lucca, Steve and Áurea's 6-year old German shepherd.
