Boat ride back to civilization

11.01.2017

We only had half a day of walking as we passed destitute loggers who piled $10 logs of poor grade mahogany onto their motorcycles. They brought them to the city to sell at great danger to their lives.

When we got back to the main river, we had another swim and hopped into a little leaky boat, which the boat man had to constantly bail in order to avoid sinking. We said goodbye to Two and Sopani brought us to his village. We had some beer, fresh tamarind and chicken rice for dinner.

We didn't sleep too much because someone's baby was wailing for literally hours. We later learned the mother was trying to wean him off of breast milk, but I still think that was quite inhumane, I don't care what you say.
