Cyrus, I was wondering which you liked better, the rainforest you visited in Ecuador or the cloud forest in Peru? We miss you guys and hope that you're having a blast! from, Maaite <strong> Hi Mrs. Girdner! I liked both the rainforest and the cloud forest. The cloud forest was colder, had better food, but didn't have as many animals. The rainforest was warmer, had 8 out of 10 food and had more animals. The guides were exellent in both places. - Cyrus Hello! Cyrus, I was wondering which you liked better, the rainforest you visited in Ecuador or the cloud forest in Peru?

Jonah and Jack have just a couple of questions: 1) How high is the rain forest's "canopy" really? 2) Have you seen any fire ants there? (They loved the trantula!) 3) Did you bring umbrellas? 4) Doesn't your camera have a "light" on it so you could take pictures of the monkeys? (They were pretty excited to hear that you saw some!) (BTW: I think most of their info these questions are based on comes from the Magic Tree House series, as well as a few other library picks.) We send our love!!! The Binski's <strong>The Kapok Tree is the biggest tree of the Amazon rainforest, as it can grow to 200 feet tall and the trunk can be 10 or 11 feet in diameter. I havent seen any fire ants in the cloudforest, but I did see some in the rainforest. In the rainforest, I ate some ants alive and they tasted like lemon! We did not bring umbrella's, so about every day we got soaked. Luckily our clothes dried quickly. Yes our cameras have flash but when I ran and got my camera and came back they were gone. :( - Thank you, Cyrus Great updates, Cy and Bella!

Do you have to be careful in drinking local water, andeating the local food? Have you discovered food you are not use to eating? So far, what do you each consider your most amazing or enjoyable moment? What do the people in Peru most want to hear from you or tell you?
