Amazon Adventures
I returned early this morning to Fortaleza after 8 days in the Amazon region. The vastness of the Amazon river was incredibly impressive, and I greatly enjoyed the chance to see parts of the Amazon near the cities of Manaus, Santarém, and Belém. In some ways parts of the trip were a bit rushed, as I have awoken for early flights between 3 and 6 am on three of the last four days. I plan to post brief blogs about each day of the trip, along with photos from each day over the next few days. A few highlights from the trip included eating worms in the jungle, sleeping in the jungle, fishing for piranhas, spotting dolphins in the Amazon, kayaking on a lake adjoining a major branch of the Amazon, and simply experiencing the awesomeness of a unique part of the world that I never dreamed that I would visit even a year ago. Photos and stories of all the above and more will follow as I can upload them in the evenings this week.
I'll be back at work this week trying to finish the remainder of the paperwork in advance of the vision study that I hope to begin in January, while continuing to finish up data collection and analysis for the physical fitness study.
