BUT they got it out...
Then we came to this...a river flooded and I followed the ladies across as the men worked with the van.
Lexi went back to get our bag...just in case.
This sweet guy was curious about the white woman.
We got a guided tour of the rainforest from a man who was excellent at spotting monkeys. (My claim to fame is that I was the first to see monkeys on the ground ahead of us on the path)
Monkey!
This is a huge tropical tree. I am standing next to a root.
The river on another side.
Climbing over a root...
Our guide.
Visitor camp.
Bamboo...just another LOST similarity...no polar bears though! I've mentioned to Lexi numerous times that Sierra Leone reminds me of LOST: palm trees, retro vans and that sometimes it feels as if I'm being followed walking through the bush.
The sweet bridge we crossed the night before after docking.
Accommodations include a tent with mattress inside a building. Not too shabby! (PLUS electricity via solar power)
In the afternoon we took a canoe ride upstream. The river is overflowing so the beautiful beaches we heard about were underwater.
Lex and I kinda hoped we get to ride in these!
Took this lady across the river before the tour.
The river was strong.
The docking area is even under water.
Cook shack.
Van stuck incident #2.
While waiting we saw this little guy on a motorbike.
I would have freaked out about the s-word! Eek! Love you!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I think of you often because of the s-words! But here we have SCORPIONS too!
