Demarcation Diaries

13 September 2001

Paula, Samuel and Petros (Cuniua Team) : 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. more

Kontau (Team A) : As always, the shooting stars are too quick for anyone to make a wish upon seeing them. If I had the chance to make two wishes, I would have made these two: everything will go smoothly for the demarcation process, and to have a seafood dinner back in North Point pier in Hong. more

Note: Volunteers and the Deni work in three different teams. Team C (Cuniuã Team) works by boat following the Coxodoã, Cuniuã and Canaçã rivers, the natural boundary of the Deni territory along the eastern perimeter. Teams A and B started at the north west tip, working away from each other, assisting the Deni in cutting a 1.5 meter path through the jungle and erecting signs identifying the Deni territory.
