August 10
Jim and I have breakfast of hard boiled eggs, bananas and instant coffee. As we eat we watch Jefferson, the guide, chopping here and there to make improvements to the camp. Before we know it, he calls us over and gives a Tarzan yell. Yes, he just made a Tarzan swing with a thick, sturdy vine and his trusty machete. Of course we give it a try. Then the brisk wall back to the boat and ride back to the lodge.
We are happy to see the kids, and go for another swim before showering and packing up. Gideon has absolutely learned how to swim. He can only go a few feet, but he swims under water. Audrey has also gotten much more comfortable in the water. We will have to find some place to keep swimming when we get back to the states.
Our guide "Maxi" needed a photo of the blonde kids to send to his family
Last boat ride across the river, then the long drive to our AirBnB in Manaus.
Car nap
We relax, wash clothes, and I send Jim on a mission to buy diapers and groceries. He is once again blessed with someone helpful to accomplish the task.
I think he's trying to tell me something

We have a free day before the voyage home begins tomorrow. Eating, watching TV and waiting for the clothes to dry on the drying rack outside.
The kids turned the closet into a fort.
