In the picture with the corn our team is on a hunting trip for small wild pigs. It was a bit strange sharpening spears and putting black paint under our eyes -- but after we learned the hunting group chants it really wasn't that bad.

OK - so we weren't really hunting. This was the entrance to one of the villages that we visited and the entrance was really well cultivated. Banana trees (in full bloom) were on the path and it was very picturesque.

In the second photo we visited a woman who displayed how the textile crafts were made - by hand. Many kids on our team had first-hand experience working with this wool.

This is the ride over on the boat - the ride 'back' on the boat had quite a lot of precipitation coming down.

The best part about the ride was the view of the entire mountain terrain - - on all sides.
