After dinner post

We just had another amazing home-cooked Brazilian meal. The desserts were a creamy caramel and a shredded papaya in a sugary sauce. Excellent!
Anyway, this afternoon we boated to bridge to conduct a stake-out for otters. It was extremely hot so when the black clouds rolled in and a light rain started to fall, it was a relief. Since there was some thunder, we had to cut our observations short and return to the farm. Our plan B was lab work. I had to wash scat samples and then help enter data into an Excel program. Ironically, once we returned to the farm, the sun came back out and we had a beautiful view of the river from the lab window. Not a bad place to do science!
