The very next morning, I wake up next to Michael over our boat. Nothing happened since we fell asleep.

But as I woke up, I saw something so amazing.

The river is surrounded by huge mountains! The view is amazing!

I immediately began to wake Michael up.

-Michael! Wake up!- I pat on his head.

He snorted as he opened his eyes.

-Huh? What is it?- He said, and yawns.

-Look!-

-Jesus... where are we?-

-We're surrounded with beautiful mountains!-

-What? That's incredible! This is beautiful!-

-I know, right? This is the most beautiful place we've ever seen. Does that mean we're almost there?-

-I think so. I don't remember how many days we traveled from the coast to the savanna-

-I think it took us 3 days. If this boat goes faster, we'd be there in a few hours-

-I honestly wish this boat has an engine, but that would damage the environment-

-You're right. Besides... good morning, sleepy head-

-Morning, beautiful. Say, what's for breakfast?-

-Well... we still have a few shrimp and crabs from yesterday. The basket is almost empty. We should eat less before our trip ends-

-True. But if the seafood runs out, we could eat the fruits. It's no big deal-

-Yeah. Well, it's time to eat.-

After their morning meal, Michael then spots something very interesting.

-Hey... is that a... capybara?- He said.

-Let me see... oh wow! That's cute!-

-Aren't those peaceful tho?-

-Yes they are. Wait! There's more of them!-

 Wait! There's more of them!-

-Wow... They're a whole family-

-That's adorable. I wish we could pet 'em-

-I wish we could, but we're on a boat and we can't take stop for a while. We have to keep sailing-

-You're right. But it's good that we get to see more animals on this island-

-It's funny how this island includes all animals from the rainforest environment like the Amazon, Africa, Mexico and India-

-Don't forget the savanna. It's a cool copy of the African savanna-

-That's right! That part was incredible-
