Resting Day

We don’t go exploring today. Even Hannah agrees that we need some time off, especially after being half eaten alive by bees, electric fireflies, and the many, many mosquitoes that dwell in the Selvadorada forest. Not to mention the whole curse business.

So instead we hang around the marketplace, talk to the locals, discover new foods and produce. Hannah in particular is enthralled in discussions about Selvadoradan myths and legends. She drinks it all up and then as soon as it’s over, she writes it all down in her little notebook.

Then we head by the river for a match of chess or two. We’re trying to get prepared for whatever enigmas the jungle may throw at us.

Never without the mosquitoes, of course.

Then as night falls, some locals teach me how to dance the simrumba. I think I’m gettting the hang of it!

In the meantime, Hanna makes the most out of the public archeology table to try and uncover a relic she found at a dig site.

She’s really proud of this discovery she made, and she hopes she will find something amazing under the solidified clay.
