my lovely abode in the jungle... let me tell you about my wonderful late night
experience with the animal that burst
through the ceiling dropping to the floor with a thud and proceeded to terrorize
me for about 15 minutes...
lying in bed clutching my chest, face frozen in fright, mouth agape, but no
sound could escape, the little beastie
ran underneath my bed, UP THE FRIGGIN' WALL, and then tore into my backpack
in search of food, it smelled
chocolate, but little did beastie know, i was a hungry monster too and eaten
it all, but he smelled the residue... SHITE!
would he smell the chocolate on my lips, HELP, plumed out of my mouth like
a limp puff of smoke. Someone did hear
me (bionic ears), but they said to stay put and do not lift the weighted down
mosquito net... ARE YOU KIDDING ME,
of course I wasn't geting out of bed, I WANT TO BE RESCUED, call 911... Is
there a phone in the jungle? Needless
to say, there wasn't any sleep taking place this particular night, and the
next morning, it was all giggles, but then I
proudly displayed my shredded bag, and everyone was suddenly scared.... the
guide said no worries, it wouldn't eat us.
and that we should be more concerned with the canoe ride cruising in a lake
with 4 different species of piranha...
for anyone interested in the jungle, it's worth it, but bring lots of DEET
and
long sleeves... oh, and loads of baby wipes, there isn't any hot water...
oh, oh, and flashlights, almost forgot, that's right, no electricity either,
hence
the cande lit dining room, very ambient and warm...
