Ernest will spend days 9-11 in the Amazonian jungle.
They left the Galapagos last night and spend the night here, at the Papallacta Hot Springs. Can you say "jealous mom?"
On day nine they will hike through the jungle by a waterfall, eat lemon ants and stay at the Huasquila Lodge.
Day 10, they visit an animal rescue center, a butterfly garden, see a shamanic ceremony, and stay at the Casa del Suizo.
Day 11 is their service project in a small village, helping to plant and cultivate trees which will finance the studies of the children in the community.
He took 2 cameras...I hope he takes a lot of pictures
How COOOOOL! When I was 11, my entire family lived on a missionary base smack dab in the middle of the Amazon. An experience I wouldn't give up for the world.
ReplyDeleteOh, man. Those hot springs! To hell with kids, let's go!
