I still catching up the blog, we had to renew visas at the beginning of october, and we'd arranged to go over the Brazilian Border this time, as it to the south and more into the interior, we decided to go make a two week trip out of it, we arranged also to stop at a room at the Kingdom Hall in Letham, we were told that the bus there is killer journey ( 16-24 hours drive, mostly on dirt jungle road at night), and as it was our first trip that way we wanted to arrive feeling mostly Human, so we Flew there instead.

We were Excited that the plane was dropping passenger off at a remote Village called Annai so got see a different area too, it was good to see Hills and Mountains, we've not seen any for Ten months, they were covered in jungle, unlike the hills back home.

The dusty red roads soon stained our footwear, the temperature was hotter than in Berbice, but the creek water is clear and most afternoons we went swimming to cool down, the local kids swim like fish underwater around the old bridge supports, made it harder when we played a game of Tig.
Simon took us out one afternoon towards kumu, to do some witnessing, which meant we got closer to the hills, and spoke to the Amerindians
