In a See of Darkness, Use X-ray Vision
Besides the chicken there was not much to enjoy.
We had spent the first 7 hours
of our day in a hot stinky bus.
Trying to sleep, trying to work and barely succeeding.
Once we
had succeeded in the former however, about 1,750$ worth of electronics had magically escaped
our bags.
After influencing an unsuccessful police search of the bus and its passengers, we
mourned our way back onto the bus and through the next two hours to our destination.
We were on our way to Tena, Ecuador to experience the indigenous village live of the
Amazon Basin.
We had a contact there named Cesar who was our way into the community.
After we were finally dropped off the bus, our contact was un-contactable.
We called, we called
again, and we called again.
And he just didn’t answer.
After three hours of waiting in the bus
station in almost complete silence, we tried one more time.
This time Cesar picked up.
