• Day 161 - Moving along

    9 Oktober 1974, Brazil

    (Ursula) Not much significance happened during the last two days and 348 miles.

    We intended to leave early this morning, but Wally had to fix a flat tire from yesterday. It was noon by the time we hit the road again.

    We stopped by a farm and purchased Pineapples, Manjoca, and Brazil Nuts. At the next village, we filled up our fresh water tank. Heinz also found a suitable cardboard box we could fill with sand as a bathroom for the little kitten. Later, Peter noticed we had another flat tire - no joke!

    We found a nice little spot where we could camp for the night on a hill that offered a view of the surrounding rainforest.
