Today is a "goof off" day for me. Taking a "boat" trip up the Rio Negro to the meeting of the Amazon River. The Rio Negro is wide and deep with a depth change of 60 feet from wet season to dry. They say there is more water in the Rio Negro/Amazon than the next eight rivers combined. Nice breeze on the river as long as you are moving. We have all been working hard here in Brazil and the break is OK. We have two more days to work to build the church and school. We have new members this week to replace those that left. We have accomplished an amazing amount of work so far. Real progress. The Brazilian people we have met so far are very gracious and kind. Its ok to visit, but too hot and humid even for an old DC boy. Leave a light burning in the window.
