What a wonderful surprise - today we received a postcard from Angus, which must have travelled to England with the three-week explorers when they returned home last Saturday… so a huge thank you to whoever played postman.
It is clear that Angus is enjoying his experiences. The card was written back at base camp (having just dug a toilet pit!) following the community phase, which he says had been extremely hard work. His fire had worked on a biogarden, as well as a banana plantation. He says he enjoyed meeting the locals and it had been an eye-opener. He also says he has learnt a lot from the experience and was looking forward to seeing more of the jungle.
At the time the card was written, he’d found the insects infuriating, but not that bad, and he had encountered the infamous Bullet Ant, though fortunately not been bitten! Angus had illustrated the card with his observation of a rather weird looking caterpillar – about 1 ½ inches long, pale blue and green with lots of furry spikes (see below). We can’t wait to hear about the other curiosities he encounters whilst deep in the jungle.
Today is Taramandua and Jungle Fever’s final day in the jungle, before they return to basecamp tomorrow.
