Demarcation Diaries

 

13 September 2001

It's a quiet day onboard the Zumbi. We ran out of demarcation signs and we are waiting for the helicopter which is stuck in Manaus.

We spent the day trying to run away from the piums. The Deni went hunting but they were not successful.

Carlos has a fever , but it doesn't seem to be malaria. Diogo is recovering from yesterday's piranha bite, and Petros and Samuel are fighting their allergic reaction to the insect mutations on their faces. In summary, crap team. I hope it will improve in the coming days.

We decided to move down the river to the position between P13 and MC01 and make a place for the helicopter to land and at the same time we started to clear a dried out tributary for them be able to move more quickly. We cannot continue to wait in standby with the piums and without anything to keep us occupied.

The team is missing information about how the campaign and the other teams are going and also some international news from the last few days.

That's all for now,

-Cuniua Team
(Paula, Samuel and Petros)
