The excitement never ends

Quick update:
We hastily relocated from our hostel in St Antonio to Cobreu Hostel in Pelhourino (down the road and still in Salvador) as the hostel manager is violently angry and kicked us out when we asked to pay for two nights NOT another five! (we have just given him ten days worth of custom) ...
Gemma is unable to walk due to an ankle injury so we are not sure what this means for the Amazonian excursion as we are having to carry her and her pack.
I am still nursing two rather large open graze wounds on my back and knees thanks to a rainy night in jandals dancing the Samba on a cobbled hill! In this heat the healing process is slow so we are staying put until Wed before going on to Belem (36 hour bus ride) at the mouth of the AMAZON!! Once there we will spend 2 lazy weeks getting down to Manaus and then on to the basin and up to the Colombian border! YAYYYY
I am really sad that no volunteer work has eventuated thus far, however, once we are in Colombia and henceforth, it will all go ahead as planned!
I am missing home quite a bit, but it is restlessness I think!
Please send me your SKYPE details (if you have SKYPE) or a contact phone number as I will be calling home in the next few days.
:)
Love to you all xxxxx
