Demarcation Diaries

2 Sepetmber 2001

We'll arrive at Caraurari in a few minutes, where the ship will stay the night. A change in our routine, and I expect to learn how to dance forró! If I'm not unlucky enough to be chosen to do the watch tonight...

Here there is a family, the Lobo (which means "Wolf" in Portuguese), who don't like Greenpeace very much, since they have exported illegal logs from the region, and the last time Greenpeace was here they lost two loads of logs due to a Greenpeace action. I hope that there won't be any problems with them. Remote rural areas of Brazil can be violent and dangerous sometimes.

I also hope that there won't be rain like we had this afternoon, otherwise there won't be any fun at the city.
