holy crap how hearts shooting out and we
don’t want that on top of us man it
looks like it would be fairly easy to go
around it until we try the only time I
was really worried was when we started
to go under it paddling as hard as we
could and started getting sucked into
the the milk it was loud it was really
really loud the goal is to be the first
expedition to paddle the full length of
the Amazon River from its newly
discovered source we look to be going
approximately 4,200 miles we’ve handled
from about an hour before sunup to about
an hour before sundown every day that’ll
be 12 to 14 hours I downloaded about a
hundred poems into my ipod and at night
I would listen to these poems and the
next day I would run through them in my
head and I would recite them to the
other guys during the day out of the
night that surrounds me dark as the
pitch from pole to pole I thank whatever
God’s may be my incomparable soul
once we get down to the the rainforest
though we’re gonna be going through
what’s called the red zone this has been
a very dangerous area because the local
ochco nica’s tribes have been exploited
quite a bit by Westerners in the area so
they’re worried about anybody they see
in the area that that that they don’t
know they’re these guys coming down from
this village with some guns and we were
trying to get away as nonchalantly as
possible and smiling and waving smile
and wave boys but here they come
motioning us over to the side I’m not
too worried about whether they’re gonna
shoot us or not at this point I’m really
happy that we didn’t bring the guns that
we had discussed bringing because I
think the guns would have shown that we
were a threat but I’m would still feel
better if things were a little evened
out it looks it looks like they have
three or four single-shot 20 gauge
shotguns there were more of us than
there are guns so they can’t shoot us
all I think they just wanted to find out
who we are and what the hell we’re doing
in their area the expedition takes some
determination but it doesn’t take a
superhuman that’s for sure
anybody can beat a whale you just you
know it’s just a bite at a time
