Merazonia and Banos Day 3 to 7

In Merazonia for 4 days now and today was our day off. We took a bus to Banos, a town nearby to go white water rafting and do laundry. Merazonia is amazing, the people, the animals, the environment the whole thing is just so surreal. They work our asses off, but we do it for the monkeys and parrots :) Every day we wake up at 7am and do rounds, which involve preparing the animal food and cleaning the cages. We then get a short break for breakfast, do chores, and then work on projects for 2 hours. Then we do the final rounds around 3 and finish our day by 530pm. The bugs aren´t too bad, but its been pretty wet so its not a 4 star bullshit hotel or something. We are jungle warriors and the jungle is our battlefield. When the days get really hot, there are a few cool waterfalls and rivers we can jump in. The water comes straight off the mountains so its cool and clean and delicious. We head back to Merazonia tonight for more animal pwnage. I also took some sick vids with my bros Go Pro during rafting so I can´t wait to check them out. I will check back into the blog in a week or so. The picture here is of a Howler monkey named Neeve. She is so cute and very jumpy, but we can clean the cage with her inside with us so its pretty fun!
