Today I Skyped with some of the 6th grade students at the Fremont Middle School. They asked a host of good questions about South America and the Amazon rain forest.
I promised them some photos.
A rhino beetle has a string tied to it's horn. It was the pet of one of the Achuar children I visited in Tiinkias.
Never guess what we had for lunch?
Thanks again for a great Skype call Fremont 6th graders! Great questions.
Cheers from Ecuador,
Dean
