Unfriendly stingrays







Arriving in Punta Sal, Peru after a long steamy drive our first swim in the pacific was a real treat, except for the stingray that is. Brad was trying to find some ´real´waves and just as I thought he was doing quite well, he was out the water very quickly. He was stung by something on the back of his foot and heard a loud buzzing noise in his head. After that there was a hot poker pain that lasted for a couple of hours, but this was soon dulled by the number of cervezas (beers) consumed at the bar.

We camped last night on the beach (another treat) and the water sounded like it was just outside the tent.

2 days ago we were in Baños a hot thermal springs town. We spent the day rafting down grade 3 rapids on the Pastasts River, one of the tributaries of the amazon. Awesome fun and amazing jungle scenery.

Haven´t had time to upload too many fotos, but will do so as soon as we can.
