We were expecting a peaceful ride.

What are we in for?

Preparing to reload.  Notice that handsome driver.

After our drenching boat ride.  Still smiling.

Thick as thieves.  (Look at the innocent bystander.)

And the girls said they couldn't find any guys?

They were going to throw him in the pool.

This looks more like they're carrying ROYALTY to the pool.

Dad has buds wherever he goes.

This is the only one he lost.

Dad love the swimming races.

Dad bonded with everyone.

Girls turn under the waterfall.

You notice dad getting in with the cooks, as usual.

This is a typical Brasilian meal.

Giberto (white shirt), told dad not to tell me they
were hunting for pirana.

Some of the women got into the fishing too.

If you look close, you'll see the beautiful blue birds
that lived up in this tree house.

What a natural horseman.

Luckily I didn't know here, dad had seen an alligator.

A ride on the horses.

Dad in line at the lunch room.

What beautiful gals!

The funnest camp that we've ever been on!
Fabulous group of Institute Kids!
