My plan was to wake up early and make my way down to the Amazon River just to see what’s happening I town, and maybe get some early morning shots. I set my iPhone to wake me up at 6 am. When it rang something didn’t look right. That was because it was really 5 am. My phone reset itself in the middle of the night to the Brazil time zone which is literally 4 blocks from here. 

So needless to say I was just a little early for sunrise. No problem the port city soon sprang into action. 

People arrived and left with fruits and fish and all manners of things to sell and buy. 

Later, after the sun was up, I went back to the room for Kim and we walked back to where the people actually lived with their houses built on stilts high above the Amazon flood plain.  

What a great great day!
