Brazil; part 2

While at the Waterfall Park in Brazil, we took a four hour tour in the jungle. It started with a 9 kilometer bike ride through mud and rocks. I have to say that wasn’t very fun. Next was a walk through on a narrow little path where are tour guide went first with a stick to scare off poisonous snakes, which was a bit scary especially because said he’s seen before a lot. At the end of the trail was an observation tower overlooking a swamp. The tour guide handed out binoculars and we found three crocodiles, something like a herring, and some king fishers. Then we were back on the narrow trail and we got on a tour boat. While on the tour boat we saw a crocodile swimming around. A LITTLE time later our tour guide asked us if we want to take kayaks the rest of the way to the dock. I was kind of against going in an inflatable rubber kayak when I saw a croc swimming only a few minutes before, but I did it, and I’m still here. Yay! After we landed we had a mile hike back to the main center. While on the lovely stroll through a wild jungle at night, we found a humongous spider. Our tour guide decided on trying to take it out of its web and holding it. For some odd reason the spider decided not to bite him and instead modeled for pictures.
