this sounds like an amazing trip bsmart! take some pix for us!


I will absolutely take lots of photos. I have actually known about this trip for quite some time, but wasn't sure if I would go until now. I am extremely nervous about traveling to South America, and this trip leaves me with like three days to prepare for law school when I get back, but hey what the heck.
 
what are you gonna do about the anacondas and pirhannas and especially that conchiru catfish... is that the one that like swims in then shoots out all the needles??? and all the Brazilians are gonna be pissed off that they lost to France in World Cup... be careful

I forgot about the anacondas. I am like 6'2 and Eleanor, the director of PAC, tells me that I am going to stand out and the locals will stare at me, including those in Lima. So I guess it will be hard to conceal my identity as an American citizen.

I think he is joking about this conchiru catfish! He had a laughing smiley out by this post! Maybe bsmart needs to provide a pic for us to see this conchiru catfish??? No reference was found to it anywhere so obviously it doesn't exist!!!

Actually bsmarts spelling was off..it is the candir? fish, and yes they do exist, and they do exactly what they said they do. I have seen them on the Discovery channel.

Proof here.
