Well it started like this.
I went to the beach and to lunch with my friends thinking i had lots of time before my bus. Turns out i was five hours off.. On the way home from the beach i get a call from lea and darja who was also taking the trip and we were on the same bus to cascaval (were we would meet up with all the exchange students... anyways i get the call and they are asking me where i am? i say on the way home from the beach why? they say the bus just left and i was so confused. I thought it was a joke for about 5 minutes. but turns out they were seriouse. So i get off the phone with them and keep my cool well try to.. and i make the scarriest call of my life to my host dad and tell him i missed my bus. He told me to get home and make sure i have everything ready. I got home just before he did then he was looking up times for buses to get me to cascaval in time theere were none so he told me he would have to drive me 3 hours to catch my bus.. We left right away and ended up only having to drive 2 hours and we caught the bus i was so lucky i have a good family here. I'm so stupid for looking at the wrong ticket,, last time i'll ever do that!
but i got the bus and i have an amazing week.
day one:
Bus, bus and more bus!!! Our bus also got a flat tire!!
Day too:
Sun tanning (little burn) And more bus,
Day 3:
And so it began. Meeting everyone and 2 seconds later forgeting names. then we had a breffing of all the rules and put in to activity groups. I did walking first. it was hot and boring! then when we were done our activity everyone went swiming!
It was so beautiful in the morning and night. there were aligators (MY FAVORITE!) and birds, but we swam in a pool. not in the pond.
At night we got to go safriing to see aligators but the tractor was too nosie so we didnt see much.. but it was still fun.
Day 4:
I did horseback riding and fishing for prahanas. I was so scared for both.
Horses are so scarie but now i love them, and i could have done it all day. but i sure felt it the next day!there was this wild horse that wouldnt leave our group alone so we had to turn around and go the other way. The fishing was so neat! i caught 4 prahanas! they were scarry. but cute. if thats possible.
At night we had a big BBQ because it was our last night in Pantanal.
Day 5:
Our last activity was safriing. which sounds better than it was. we just drove 30 minutes on a wagon then stoped and walked a while.. but i seen the big McCaws blue and red ones!! so beautiful!!
Then we left right after lunch and the rest of the day was spent on the bus.
Day 6:
we started our time in bonito with snokeling! it was so amazing the water was so cold and clear. I'm so glad my camer takes pictures underwater! i took so many!
We had free time in bonito at night to look around at the shops and stuff.
Day 7:
We went to the waterfalls in the morning and got to swim in them and it was so much fun!
But i got boredshort rash so it hurt so much to walk.. but it went away the next day :D
In the afternoon we went rafting. It was so much fun. but i was disapointed that we only went down 3 little rapids. I did see a aniconda! A big one.. then we went swiming in the water after.. :D and we all made it out alive! YAY!!
we had water fights with all the boats we pasted and we finished in first started in last!! YAY!!! INTERCOMPIZZAS!
Day 8:
This day it was raining alot and we should have whent to the blue lagoon caves but it rained too much so we went to some other boring cave. it was neat but i was so tired and not intertusted at the time. Then It was our last night together so we had a big talent show and a big party and dance!
It was so much fun! oh and i was voted to have had the most things. i brought all my clothes that i had in brasil.
Day 9:
VERY SAD DAY! i had to say goodbye to some of my cloest friends. I know i've only known them for such a short time but we bonded so much and i really hope to see them again.
