Arrived in Raiti, Nicaragua

It was a long, wet, difficult day on the river working to get here today.  We awoke at 3:15am after about 4 hours sleep.  We then drove to our launch point.  

We traveled maybe 11 hours to get here, things went faster than they thought.  There are many things I did not anticipate but it all worked out.

Literally my shoes were wet within seconds from launching.  I never realized until today that I had an opinion about mud but it turns out I hate it!  It is everywhere.

There were five points we got out of the boats at river rapids to decrease weight and we hiked through the jungle alongside the river to rejoin the boats after the rapids.

It is a rough jungle beauty here but strikingly beautiful and the people are both nice and curious.

I am muddy and wet here in my hammock with my mosquito net over me but what an amazing day!

Thanks Lord for keeping us safe.
