| It rained HARD at the start of the journey, and we're all a little wet. Poncho or not. Steve and Jack kept the guide entertained ("Jesus Christ")...not that we would have remembered what kind of tree that was called. |

| At the touristy-end of the boat tour (not that the start wasn't touristy) we spent a lot of effort to go to the "other end" of the river (the ocean) than came back to this alligator/crocadile (yeah, I can't spell and I don't know the difference) that supposedly is always in this spot....but we couldn't agree if it was fake or not. |
