The Night Walk

After it had stopped raining and the lighting was gone. It was time for the one hour night walk. I was very excited. But I was a little bit afraid about seeing snakes out in the black rainy forest. The white moon shined out over the forest as we walked through. A long way to go, but I enjoyed a lot of things I saw. Water dripping and flowing away in the small stream. A fresh and very small prawn jumped up and swam downstream. Before it floated away in the dark the guide grabbed it and told us to eat it.”No chance that I am eating that prawn” did I say quietly in my head, until Tianhi said “I am going to eat it.”, and she really did. Standing there and watching her eat that made me feel sick. At least she did. Our walk continued on sliding in the mud, suddenly I slid toward the person that was in front of me. My shoes just couldn´t hold me up anymore. They kept sliding away from me until someone caught me. Next stop was when we were looking for leeches on our legs or any other part of the body. As normal I had no leeches on my body. Both guides were calling us because they had found something interesting. They were very shiny and a green light was coming from the bugs. They were about five-six centimetres tall. We continued to walk until we came to a street that had recognizable signs that we were almost at our camping area. A few meters more and there was our camping area. We thanked the guides and said that it had been a very nice and special walk for us.
