Girls Camp and Jungle Trip #2

Hey friends and fam,
A few updates for ya...

Our girls camp went great! For the first time we did it with other partners- the regional health post and government, an NGO, etc. Of course some bumps in the road, but 39 girls got the chance to laugh, play and learn interactivelly about self-esteem, leadership, sexual education and rights, among other things. Here I am teaching morning aerobics:

 And the whole gang...

Aaaand the jungle...wow. We went to Puerto Maldonado, Madre de Dios. We stepped off the plane and started laughing because it didn't seem real. Felt like we were in a sauna! We (11 gals!) went to a jungle lodge for 2 days and got to see all kinds of insects and creatures...tons of species of birds, an alligator,
 The whole group on our pirannah fishing adventure. I surprisingly caught the first one!

 Jungle lodge...
 At the bridge to Brazil!

My monkey friend!! They climbed all over us and let us pet them!

So that's what I got for now. Keep it real and I'll be back soon!
