Hey if you have to go at night here is the bed pan. I don't see any toilet paper or anything else. Must have been a nasty time for skid marks.

The "Amazones de la Confrérie des Gardians" perform a carousel in the Roman Arena of Arles, France. This is to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Mireille, the famous poem of Frederic Mistral.
Frédéric Mistral (September 8, 1830?March 25, 1914) was a French poet who led the 19th century revival of Occitan (Provençal) language and literature. He was a key figure in the literary félibrige movement. He shared the Nobel Prize in literature in 1904 for his contributions in literature and philology.

Mireille is also an opera in five acts by Charles Gounod to a French libretto by Michel Carré after Frédéric Mistral's poem Mireio. Gounod was charmed by the originality of the work, the story being much less contrived than many of those on the operatic stage at the time. During the course of composition Gounod spent much time in Provence (12 March to the end of May 1863), visiting the sites of the action in the poem/opera, and met Mistral on several occasions at his home in Maillane. Gounod stayed at the Hôtel de la Ville Vert in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, and was treated to a banquet by the townspeople on May 26. Presenting class differences in a rural setting was not usual at the time, and as Huebner comments "some early reviewers had difficulty accepting that a 'mere' country girl could sing a heroic aria such as "En marche". It has been argued that "what matters in this extended lyric poem is not the story but the rich tapestry or Provençal traditions, beliefs and customs"

This was the view from the relaxation area in front of our rooms at Explorama's ExploNapo lodge. The water's color was almost as coppery as you see, but the sunset added to it. This was a small side channel of the Napo, not far upstream from where the Napo joins the Amazon.
Explorama have been taking tourists to the jungle for more than 40 years, and do a great job.
I've set up a Flickr group for Explorama- specific photos, such as photos of the lodge buildings, the villages Explorama visits, the Amazon Medical Project Clinic. THIS photo is not what I would call "Explorama specific".

Sometimes (and sadly, increasingly), Amazon shipments don't survive Amazon's packing "skill". Their usual failure mechanism: the box is too big, and there's very little packing material. The end result in this shipment is likely dented batteries that I can't safely recharge. Feh.
In 2015/16, Silva Cells were installed for 21 trees at the Amazon headquarters in downtown Seattle. This was an integrated project focused on both tree growth and stormwater management.

An Amazon cavalrywoman falls from her horse after being wounded. It's quite a remarkable statue -- pity the wall's there, as it would be nice to be able to walk around it 360 degrees. Try to ignore the giant stake transfixing the horse, as it's just a particularly unfortunate support pillar.
Karlita (age 5) and Betzi (age 14) taught me how to milk a cow!!! It was fun. But I had some tough competition from that calf in the back. And I learned a few other things, e.g., note, the back legs are tied together, and also the head is tied to that back wall there. Cows are clearly dangerous and not to be trusted. Maybe actor Troy McClure (whom you may remember from such educational films as "Firecrackers: The Silent Killer") was right: "Don't kid yourself Jimmy. If a cow ever got the chance, he'd eat you and everyone you care about!"
Seriously Amazon, WTF?! You could have delivered that in a bog-standard envelope. It not only did not need a box, it certainly didn't need one as big as a house.
