We've been sharing our dreams every morning now, which is easier to do because the plant baths have given us many more than usual. Breakfast was fish with veggies, and our usual addition of bananas and oranges to hold over our growing appetites.Before lunch was served Wilder asked me if I wanted to help Dennis get something, I thought he ment around camp so I said yes, but that wasn't the case. What we had to do was take a boat to the mouth of the yarapa river and dig yucca out of the ground to feed the camp. It was the same friend of Wilders who gave us yucca and squash a while back, but for some reason we never got any of that.We arrived said hello to the elders and got to work getting the goods. One of the yucca plants was so firmly embedded in the ground and it took the wife, Dennis and myself all pulling on it to bring up the roots and thus the yucca. On our way back there was another transport delivering two new guests, I didnt know where they were going, there were at least 3 other lodges on this part of the river so it could have been anywhere.When We got back I was happy to see the two new comers pull up beside us on shore. Dennis and I handed the yucca to Wilder, I told him that we actually wanted to have some of it this time and then joined Blake for lunch, which was barbecued catfish and tigerfish. During this meal we were introduced to the young pair.Conversation started off with the standard fare, where are you from, how long will you stay, what are you interested in doing? That kind of thing. Well, they were from Canada, they will stay until January then move on to different countries and they were interested in expanding their spiritual, emotional and experiential horizons through travel. This being their first trip outside of Canada, I thought they were well on their way having decided upon Peru, a mecca for such things second only to India.Once the proper introductions were made the topics of the afternoon inevitably fell upon psychedelics and our experiences with them both at home and here in Peru. Before we had even given our names we were all sharing personal experiences and insights into the human experience, as those who delve into the psychedelic realms usually are keen to do.When we had each shared something meaningful to us and finished our meals, Blake and I asked them if they wanted to play cards and then introduced ourselves before teaching them to play 13. Their names were Antoine and Marilou from Quebec and Montreal, ages 20 and 18, the first self identifying god cousins i've ever met. We finished one game, started another and it was Antoine who made a comment in passing about everyone thinking things were so bad In the United States with poison in the food and water. Blake nodded his head in agreement and said, "hell yeah, fluoride in the tooth paste too and all that." Antoine and Marilou looked at each other with a surprised look and turned to us in unison saying "you're the 3rd travelers to tell us this." It was almost as if they hadn't wanted us to agree with the statement.Being the wealth of maddening conspiracy information that I am, I had every compulsion to share with them what I knew on the subject, but I've learned over many heated arguments and outright violent confrontations that the best way to share such things is to wait for when they seek the knowledge themselves. In the spirit of this I told them that If they cared to hear more I would happy to share.They seemed interested but the conversation was put on hold because their guide came in to take them on a jungle hike. Then we went on our own hike through the jungle with Wilder, Victor the and the cook to gather medicinal plants for our next sauna, we also chopped down some small trees to use as supports for the new sauna Victor was building.Just as we were getting into the boat the cook lost her balance and grabbed on to my pony tail to prevent herself from falling into the river, which thanks to my hair she succeeded in doing. Everyone had a good laugh and we returned to camp to have our first go in the new sauna, which was 4 sticks in the ground surrounded by a plastic sheet with blankets thrown over the top and a large boiling pot with 2 wooden blocks beside it that we used to stand on. As per Wilders instruction the sauna could only be used naked, and so it was. It was definitely a great improvement upon than the previous model.After dinner with the Canadian God cousins they invited us to join them on their night hike in search of a giant tarantula, something we had yet to do, for that and because we liked them we accepted their offer. We saw more spiders that night than any of us cared to realize were there at any given time. The coolest things we saw were giant bull frogs, the size of an obese uptown house cat, and a black scorpion resting on a tree.Just in case you think there's something missing from this story your intuition serves you well, for what day or night walk through the jungle would be complete without the incessant vampirism of the mosquito legions!? There were so many sucking face with me that every time I slapped at them I was wiping my own blood from my face. Just as we got back into camp the guide pointed his light on the roof over the walkway of the camp and there it was, the pink tarantula we had set out to find. Although it was late Antoine and Marilou were not ready to sleep and wanted to hear more in regards to our previous conversation, so we played 13 by candle light and really got into the nitty-gritty of the New World Order.
