Raft down the Amazon River
Ok time for another crazy idea on the list. But yes, don’t you think this would be awesome. Sure it would be very dangerous, but the thrill and experience would be unbelievable. Honestly I don’t know what you could really expect; research teams do it from time to time. I image that in a few more years it wouldn’t be nearly as cool… like even the remote jungle tribes are becoming more and more acquainted with technology. It’s one of those crazy things, how in today’s world very few things are remote. I love reading old science fiction by H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, H.H. Haggard or Edgar Rice Burroughs where remote and savage places really did exist fully and your imagination could run wild. I guess I view an adventure such as rafting down the Amazon as one of the few remaining examples of that time in the world today.
Sorry this one is kind of rambling.. but I’m just going to post it as is and not try to clean it up grammatically :P
