Back in Iquitos

We got back from our survival camp at about noon today. It turned out that we did not leave for the jungle until Thursday. I got sick soon after my last post so i wasn´t sure i would be able to go on the survival camp. I felt better on Thursday so i decided that i would go. We rode on a bus for two hours and then got on a boat for about an hour. YWAM has two boats a normal one and a speed boat. The speed boat is small and cann´t hold any luggage so we took both boats. During survival camp we made our own food over a fire we had to start. They had split us up into three groups and we had to build a shelter. They gave us plastic, nails, a hammer, machetes and so other supplies. We also did group building activities that were like ones you would do at a small ropes course. We were competing against the other teams and if you won you would get a prize. We won a live chicken, so i killed it and we ate it. The time was fun and helped us grow closer but i have never seen so many mosquitoes. It can not be described how bad it was. A lot of great things happened but i cann´t type all of them in this message. Your love and prayers are appreciated, Christopher
